      MLK, Mandela, Havel, Churchill and others as voiceover for the promo for the 9/29 protests! It is going to be a busy weekend, with the fifth anniversary of the Umbrella Movement and the 70th anniversary of mainland China both coming up! https://twitter.com/tomgrundy/status/1177239068846878720/video/1 …

      Tonight’s rally in Hong Kong on detainees and police misconduct, was pretty large. But the big one is tomorrow: a “global anti-totalitarianism march” followed on October 1st by a “wear black” day on the anniversary of mainland China’s founding. Big weekend for #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/zkfBv8zTxJ

      The crowd coming out of the subway for the fifth anniversary of the Umbrella revolution rally is so big and dense that we can barely move. Popular chant: “five demands, not one less.” More and more protesters tell me the fifth, universal suffrage, is the most important to them.pic.twitter.com/DJ1C8iYUI4

      The rally had barely started, but I already saw the red flag and police are already using pepper spray on people entering the rally. Meanwhile, a small orchestra (right past the pepper spray) is practicing “Glory to Hong Kong”—the anthem that didn’t even exist until recently.pic.twitter.com/OsoVrHPo5E

      On its fifth anniversary, the Umbrella movement is back where it started, occupying Harcourt road. It’s tear gas, pepper spray, water cannons (blue water laced with something that burns) against a sea of umbrellas. But the movement is different—tenor, goals & methods all evolved.pic.twitter.com/kuo8CrrwlY

      Causeway “anti totalitarian” march. An hour before scheduled gathering time and the tear gas warning flag is up already. 🙄 #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/YIHWe9gYhV

      So we got tear gassed again. Ugh. In the middle of the shopping district. This woman was caught in the middle, and very badly affected. I watched a Hong Kong journalist give her his mask. He went out to work again without a mask. (We got her a medic.) #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/lBrfzYmNEZ

      Hong Long protesters ended up marching anyway, despite the teargas. They had a contingent with United Nations and world flags. I also watched the Hong Kong police shoot rubber bullets and tear gas canisters directly at the protesters. Their weapons are made in Pennsylvania, USA.pic.twitter.com/WVoq34rAWd
