    Thirty years after 2 million people formed a 600km human chain, linking Estonia, Latvia & Lithuania, Hong Kongers are planning to recreate the Baltic Way this Friday night with the Hong Kong Way, totalling ~32km. https://lihkg.com/thread/1486119/page/1 …pic.twitter.com/XYC07iHK1T

        Latest info from the organisers of #TheHKWay: people will start gathering 7pm this Friday at different stations along the Island (blue), Tsuen Wan (red), & Kwun Tong (green) subway lines, join hands at 8pm (but wait for the green 🚦At crosswalks!) & peacefully disperse at 9pm.pic.twitter.com/uKH2KHy0DA

        Organisers also making sure people know the history of the Baltic Way, the 30th anniversary of which they'll mark here w #theHKway. It'll likely be the 1st time many HKers hear of the Baltic Way—enriching knowledge of the global past through activism of the local present.pic.twitter.com/9d9MGKvPYw

        As some have noted, there was also the Catalan Way in September 2013, when hundreds of thousands joined hands to form a 400km human chain to demand independence from Spain.

        Map of subway stations people will gather at to form the Hong Kong Way on Friday. From organisers: "By accommodating The Baltic Way into the context of HK, we wish to...reunite HK people in the process of this continuous movement & to make ourselves visible to the global world."pic.twitter.com/RIT0GkNCd8

        The organisers of Friday's Hong Kong Way have just put out this slick promo video. "Let’s hold each other’s hands and defend this city with our bodies and our will. Let’s show the world our determination to resist tyranny....Let's form our human chain. Hongkongers! Assemble!"pic.twitter.com/goB0Khd86m

        This thread on LIHKG reflects the renewed & urgent sense of a need for unity between 和(peaceful)&勇(fighters) in the protest movement: "Yes, [holding hands] is really fucking stupid, really fucking lame. But we still have to go help!"https://lih.kg/1495047

        Of course Hongkongers have made a Google Maps of the Hong Kong Way, complete w info on which MTR station exits to gather at. Fearing a violent mob attack, however, the chain won't pass thru North Point (red⚠️on bottom chain) unless there's enough manpower. https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/1/viewer?mid=1epO7dqTyWkTGVD1qqStYdUdKnsdboBcZ&ll=22.324998087794707%2C114.17639068987137&z=13 …pic.twitter.com/zZtBvobpvI
