    Second march in Hong Kong is on the same mind-boggling scale as last week's, boosted by anger over police brutality and student arrests. Safe to say Carrie Lam's bid to quell protests fell flat. #ExtraditionBillpic.twitter.com/r7QOnVOLXV

        It's kind of cliche to describe enormous protests as a sea of people but honestly, that's exactly what this looks like. The streets are moving.pic.twitter.com/Rfx8jYEl5h

        Alejandro Alvarez Retweeted Hong Kong Free Press HKFP

        Two historic marches later, Carrie Lam finally issues the apology so many demanded from her. Problem is, by this point they've moved on to calling for her resignation.https://twitter.com/HongKongFP/status/1140239275880898561 …

        Alejandro Alvarez added,

        Alejandro Alvarez Retweeted Antony Dapiran

        Organizer estimate is in: 2 MILLION. Usual disclaimers re: organizer #'s and accurate stats for big marches, but most sources I've read agree this dwarfed the first. Imagine that: Two record-shattering marches a week apart.https://twitter.com/antd/status/1140275006913617921 …

        Not Hungary - I was too young. But I remember exactly where I was when Tiananmen happened. These protesters really understand what they’re fighting for and the likely repurcussians

        What will it take to unite and motivate Americans on this scale? To me (age 68), an extremely fearful question!
