VIDEO: Hong Kong small pro-democracy rally seems defiant but peaceful

We just wanted to share this very short but uniquely moving black and white video of Sunday’s small pro-democracy rally in Admiralty.

Vimeo user Paul Swee‘s short compilation of torch/phone waving and drum banging seems to embody the very concept of peaceful protest.

 

 

Pro-democracy activists gathered on Sunday after an announcement by China confirmed that Hong Kong will not be afforded full universal suffrage in the 2017 elections.
