A group of #UCD students supporting #HongKongers in their fight for human rights & democracy. Five Demands, not one less! Plz #StandWithHongKong. IG: davis4hk
Freedoms and rights of the #hongkongers have been deteriorating over the years since the handover. Worse still, ever since the #NationalSecurityLaw was passed on June 30th, 2020, HK's freedoms have been relentlessly attacked by the CCP. Here is a recap of the events.
【Cross-Movement Action Camp: July 30- Aug 6】
📣Calling Hong Kong advocates‼️
🗓️ Jul 30 to Aug 6, 2023
📍Bay Area, CA, USA (precise location to be released upon registration)
SFT has reserved some spots for Hongkongers. Deadline: June 24th
Yesterday, we gathered to stand with #HK47 & all HK #PoliticalPrisoners. We call for further support for Hong Kongers and punitive sanctions on judges, politicians, and officials in Hong Kong and China who imposed this heinous oppression on our prisoners of conscience.
【初選無罪—全球聲援47人案聯合行動】NOT GUILTY – Stand with #HongKong47
Our fellow Hongkongers are suppressed & can't speak up in #HongKong. Therefore, living in the land of freedom we must stand up for their rights & speak for #HK47, show the world the hypocrisy of HK govt & CCP
🧵📣The Deferred Enforced Departure (DED) for Hong Kongers will expire in 20 days. Members of @UofCalifornia jointly call for DED renewal & longer-term protections for #HongKongers. (1/7)

🎥 理大圍城 INSIDE THE RED BRICK WALL — UC Davis放映
📍Nov 17th, 5 PM PT
📍Wellman 216, UC Davis
Host: East Asian Studies
Co-sponsor: Human Rights Studies @UCDavis_HMR
The screening will be followed by a conversation with Professor Eddy U and Professor Drew Halfmann.
Although there’s no more June 4 commemoration in the Victoria Park, candlelight shined every corner of the global tonight.
Haven’t been speaking publicly for so long, it’s my honour to be with everyone outside 10 Downing Street and the Embassy of PRC this evening.
This CSSA campaign to smear @badiucao seems eerily similar to the McMaster CSSA’s 2019 campaign to shut down Uyghur-Canadian activist @parlabest.
Both times, the CSSA tries to silence students by making it clear that any criticism will be identified & reported… 1/3

In these last few days, we will be highlighting quotes by athletes who have spoken out.
Team Canada Olympic snowboarder Drew Neilson pointed out the hypocrisy of the IOC ignoring human rights violations.
Share and tell the IOC #IWillNotWatch
🚨6 days #CountdownToBeijing2022
During the summer Olympics, Edgar Cheung won HK's first fencing gold. A Hongkonger was arrested for booing the Chinese anthem and chanting “We Are Hong Kong” while watching the ceremony at a mall — taking pride in the HKer identity is outlawed.
🚨7 days #CountdownToBeijing2022
Martial arts world champion Kwong Yuk-ming's career could be over because he defended Hong Kong’s freedoms and was sent to prison.
Athletes, you can understand the pain of Kwong's loss — will you stand with the athletes who fight for freedom?
🚨8 days #CountdownToBeijing2022
The slogan was officially banned on Jul 1 2020. Tong Ying-kit flew the flag and was sentenced to 9 yrs — 6.5 yrs for “inciting secession."
The gov't will never destroy our drive to Liberate Hong Kong; they can't kill the Revolution Of Our Times.

“When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes a duty.” The HK gov't’s ignorance of our voices forced us to take to the streets. 26-yr-old Andy Kan, among many others, was jailed for protesting. But there's no rioters, only tyranny.
