        A YouTuber named Chili Lucas, a westerner who live-streams the protests and who speaks Cantonese, spoke in Canto on stage and led the crowd into chants.pic.twitter.com/VuT8DODIMM

        Marching peacefully over “Government Hill” singing Hallelujah to the Lord. It was sung so much early on in the protests that we all got sick of it, but it’s honestly nice to hear it again and be reminded of more peaceful times.pic.twitter.com/TOu7nQBcXr

        There was of course verbal abuse hurled at the riot police too, who were standing nearby. A woman with three young kids was marching and yelling at the police. Her daughter joined in too, to the amusement of the crowd. This is the polarization that government inaction has led to.

        Hong Kong protesters have always been trying their best to be peaceful. Unfortunately the govnt keep burying its head in the sand and even respond with escalating #PoliceBrutality.

        Thank you all #Hongkongers! Everyone in Hong Kong is using their own way to express the five demands! We will never give up as long as the government uses only chemical weapons and police brutality to answer us. #StandWithHongKong
