June 9, 2019: 1 Million Pro-Democracy #Hongkongers Took Part in #AntiExtradition Protest
On June 9, 2019, the Civil Human Rights Front (#CHRF) initiated a protest against extradition to China.
Despite the hot weather, 1 million Hongkongers, donning white as the "dress code", walked from #VictoriaPark in Causeway Bay to the Government Headquarters in Admiralty. The massive number of participants could not be contained by the assembly venue and occupied six lanes of the road, patiently waiting and moving step by step.
On that hot summer day three years ago, Hongkongers showed their determination to voice their opinion and safeguard their rights and freedom.

"Glory HK": #Hongkongers Raise Glowing Signs amid Storm Clouds on Lion Rock
In Hong Kong, a group of pro-democracy citizens braved the heavy rain and hiked to the top of the #LionRock on the evening of June 9, 2022.
On the mountain, they displayed the light signs that spelled "Glory HK", to commemorate the third anniversary of the 2019 June 9 #AntiExtradition protest march.
When the group reached the summit, however, the hill was shrouded by dense clouds and heavy rain, with a thunderstorm warning from the weather observatory. After discussing their options, the group decided to carry through and set up the sign while they waited for the clouds to clear. Their patience was rewarded after waiting for over an hour; the clouds cleared for a brief moment, and Hong Kong's city lights come into view behind their glowing sign.
Speaking to a reporter, the organizer likened the weather atop the mountain to the outlook for Hong Kong's future: full of dark clouds, but there will be light for those who hold on to the end.
"The oppression keeps Hongkongers from speaking our minds, and even rational debates on the Internet risk violating the authority's red line; however, the beliefs of Hongkongers 3 years ago surely remain engraved in our hearts, and they will never change," said one of the participants.

13-year-old Boy in Hong Kong Persists on Remembering 7.21 #YuenLongAttack, Stopped and Searched by the Police
On July 21, 2022, some Hongkongers donned black, some brought flowers to remember the 7.21 Yuen Long Attack. In 2019, white-clad gangsters indiscriminately assaulted pro-democracy citizens, train passengers and pedestrians, as police reportedly turned a blind eye.
In 2022, those who insisted to remember included a 13-year-old boy. He recalled the day three years ago when he was still in primary school, "many white clad people launched attack that day, but only 7 of them were charged."
The boy brought with him a paper that wrote "lest we forget 7.21" and was stopped and searched by the police.
