There are some things you can no longer freely say in Hong Kong. Or write. Or tweet. Or draw. Or sing.https://nyti.ms/2F6rhPq
Hong Kong was once a bastion of free speech, home to political refugees, rights groups and international media. But a security law passed on June 30 instantly altered people’s lives. What was once protected free speech can now be criminalized.
Artists, journalists and activists in Hong Kong risk criminal prosecution. The police have arrested more than 20 people under the new law, some who carried signs like this one. The law lays out political crimes sometimes punishable by life imprisonment. https://nyti.ms/2F6rhPq pic.twitter.com/paxgY4sj01

“Staying in Hong Kong could become dangerous,” said Lau Kwong Shing, an illustrator known for artwork supporting pro-democracy protests. “What I illustrate is just an expression of my thoughts, but that might now come with legal consequences.”https://nyti.ms/2F6rhPq
