"Local Youth Will" is a pro-democracy concern group recently established by former cabinet member of the now-dissolved students' union of the Chinese University of Hong Kong (#CUHK), Law Tsz Wai; external affairs vice-president of the current students' union of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University (#PolyU), Cheung Sum-yee; and former spokeperson of #StudentPoliticism, Chu Wai-ying.

The group organized their inaugural event on June 9, 2021. On the day two years ago, over 1 million Hongkongers took it to the street to protest against the government's plan to implement extration to China.

In the exhibition they are organizing in 2021, Local Youth Will aims to give voices to the detained, jailed and exiled pro-democracy activists in Hong Kong.

At a gallery called Parallel Space located in Shum Shui Po, photos, banners and art installations relating to the pro-democracy movement are displayed.

The group hopes that the memories of the #AntiELAB movement can be passed on, despite the authorities' incessant attempts to alter history.

However, just one day after the event has started, the authorities intervened by sending 6 to 7 officers from the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department (#FEHD) to the venue. Despite that the exhibition is held as a private event that requires advanced booking, the authorities claimed that the group lacks the "license" for "places of public entertainment".

Law Tsz-wai, the convenor of the group Local Youth Will said they had expected that the authorities would try to interfere and they would never give in.
