Over 1.7 Million Hongkongers Take Part in 8.18 "Be Water" Rally in 2019
On Sunday, August 28, 2019, over 1.7 million Hongkongers took to the streets to oppose the impending encroachment of rights and freedom in the government's attempt to establish an extradition treaty with China.
Hongkongers defied the police's objection to the march by gathering in Victoria Park, peacefully walking to Central, demonstrating their entitled rights of expression and protest.
Despite the pouring rain, Hongkongers made their steps forward standing by each other. Withstanding the rain, the congestion and hypothermia, Hongkongers formed a sea of umbrellas, peacefully and with civility, showing the world their determination to pursue the 5 demands and their ideal 'Hong Kong'.
