Watching Michael Jackson’s “They Don’t Care About Us (2020)” again and that lone figure standing in front of the tanks still hits like a punch to the chest. Protest songs don’t age, because injustice never really ends. #TheyDontCareAboutUs#HumanRights#Tiananmen#NeverForget
A memorial bench for the 168 victims of Hong Kong's Wang Fuk Court fire thst occurred in November of last year has been spotted at the Victoria Embankment Gardens in London. A kind gesture in memory of a preventable tragedy.

📍 Royal Mint Court, London
🕖 14:00 | 17 Jan 2026
🙌 Join the FINAL protest against 🇨🇳 China’s proposed #MegaEmbassy in London, together with Tibetan, Hong Konger, Uyghur, and Chinese communities — and stand in solidarity with detained SOAS student #TARA Zhang Yadi.
This is the last chance to publicly oppose China’s plan to turn Royal Mint Court into a mega embassy before the UK government’s final decision on 20 January.
The protest also marks 162 days since SOAS student Tara Zhang Yadi’s arrest in China. Living in Paris with her Tibetan partner since 2022, she has worked for peaceful dialogue between Tibetans and Han Chinese, and written about rights issues in Tibet for Chinese-language audiences. She is now charged with “inciting separatism” — a vague and abusive offence routinely used to silence Tibetan and Uyghur scholars, writers, and activists.
Transnational repression will NOT be tolerated — in the UK or anywhere in the world.
Whether through illegal surveillance or the arrest of dissenting voices, authoritarian reach must be confronted.
✊ MEGA EMBASSY, MEGA NO!!!
✊ BRIDGE THE GAP. STAND TOGETHER.
