Parent-children protest in Hong Kong, snaked off into a march later. #Hongkongprotestspic.twitter.com/lgV6VBGPMx
A group of protesters leaving Tai Po where thousands had gathered, many of whom later reassembled at Tai Wai. High energy for a protest cycle entering its 10th week. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/F70pExMRTC
The airport protests are still going strong, entering their second night. (Can’t capture them in one video as they are on both sides of the arrivals hall at the airport). #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/ZdePXZAfjl
They’re re greeting all new arrivals with “Stand with Hong Kong; Fight for freedom”. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/BMzkUnNQ0n
Also airport wifi is way overloaded.
#HongKongProtests
Another wave is scheduled for today in #HongKongProtests .pic.twitter.com/BkkEUsgcLd
Hong Kong protesters are distributing tear gas masks and helmets as they march chanting for their “five demands”—cancel the extradition bill, release the protesters, independent inquiry into events, retract “riot classification for June 12, universal suffrage. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/08i2vNbS5s
Police are throwing tear gas at the wave of young Hong Kong protesters who are banging drums near the police station. It’s a sea of helmets and gas masks. They’ve apparently been told to disperse or be fired at with rubber bullets. (I’m fine folks, no worries). #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/rPl9WvxyQX
A tear gas canister landed right next to me. I was given an eyewash within 30 seconds or so. (I’m fine. I stepped further away.) This #HongKongProtests have been more “Telegram and Tear Gas” so far, but it’s also clear the protesters have their logistics down. :-)pic.twitter.com/T1S4JEOa3d
Folks, I’m fine and away from the protest area now. I hope everyone stays safe out there. #HongKongProtests
This is terrible, to tear gas a subway station. Lots of people will be stuck within a confined space. #HongKongProtestshttps://twitter.com/stegersaurus/status/1160538322906669056 …
Two huge dangers associated with tear gas are using it in confined spaces and the canister being shot straight—instead of upwards, about 45 degree angle, so it doesn't directly hit someone. This picture from the #HongKongprotests seems to show both. :-(https://twitter.com/HongKongFP/status/1160543890065068032 …
Dear #ASA19. I appear on the schedule but I couldn’t make it this year due to #HongKongProtests, and couldn’t change it on paper on time. (Protests don’t lend to scheduling ahead of time
!) Also the subway here runs better in the middle of huge protests than the usual in NYC. 
In an unprecedented move, the Hong Kong airport has been shut down to all flights as thousands protesting police actions yesterday have flocked to it. I saw a line of protesters walking back/waiting for buses about a mile deep. Thousands still here. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/WjvE3t3AQL
Airport protesters are still greeting the last arrivals, chanting “stand with Hong Kong, fight for freedom.” #antiELAB #Hongkongprotestspic.twitter.com/aur2C3IQ2w
Flight board shows cancellations and lots of protesters have left, but many still here. #antiELAB Lots of people on their phones, trying to figure out next steps. (By the way, even with extra thousands, the WiFi here still works better than almost any US airport on a good day.)pic.twitter.com/FS3ozAp6Gl
I know there are lots of rumors about the Hong Long airport but as of 6:55p—lights are on. WiFi is fine. No overt police. Protesters have left by the thousands but many remain. People still arriving. Here’s my contribution to the facial recognition algos. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/ZhiaXmN7Ib
The heartbreaking case of the young medic who lost her eye yesterday is prominent and seems the biggest motivator of today’s otherwise spontaneous protest—airport protests were slated to end yesterday. So many have lost eyes—in Tahrir, in Gezi, now in Hong Kong. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/Ru7JftyVWl
Almost 8p here at the Hong Kong airport and passengers are still arriving. While thousands of protesters have left, a sizable contingent is still here, still chanting. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/iw26u1S03m
8:30p at Hong Kong airport. Lots of protesters still here. Lots of press. Passenger still trickling in. What is probably the last flight for the night has landed. Many protesters have left for downtown locations. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/wX6VUz8YcZ
Almost 9p. Still relatively uneventful at the Hong Kong airport. The protesters aren’t blocking anyone. Lots of press with them. Passengers trickling in. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/hloLYnjd68
Wait. Correction. It’s not all uneventful. The typo police has arrived, bravely charging in where no other dare to go. (Take it up with @Jack, my dude. There is no edit button and I’m typing on a tiny screen). https://twitter.com/richarddai7/status/1160900040145215488 …
I think there’s a significant amount of misinformation spreading about the #HongKongProtests. It’s understandable but I don’t get the same vibe on the ground. (I don’t think tanks are rolling in! It doesn’t make sense and there is no recent indication—yet).
I have left the airport for now. There’s a very significant contingent of international press there and things seem calm. I have to say, again, in amazement, this city runs better even on its big disruptive protest days than any major US city on its best day. #HongKongProtests
What may well become a big gathering called for next weekend.https://twitter.com/ericcheungwc/status/1160880857936044035 …
Thread about the five demands of #HongKongProtests. (A common chant has been insistence that all five demands be met).https://twitter.com/HongKongHermit/status/1160409465637621760 …
Hong Kong airport is effectively shut down for the second day in a row by the #HongKongProtesters. The protesters are blocking the departure gates. Some parts have makeshift barricades and some is just rows of protesters sitting.pic.twitter.com/jM51AcKRrY
Close-up: a moon-pie given to me by an apologetic protester. “We have tried everything“, she says. “The government doesn’t respond to us.” Background: protesters have barricaded departure gates. Some travelers are understandably upset. Delicate calculations. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/4jfO1hadKS
Some protesters are trying hard to take care of the trapped travelers. This group felt uneasy but they said they will do their part. I know last weekends escalation was a turning point, but so is this—in terms of how this movement finds its footing for strategic decision-making.pic.twitter.com/KV0DwZ1f0V
