"We Love the Young People of Hong Kong Even More"
On the evening of November 12, 2019, thousands of Hongkongers and alumni of the Chinese University of Hong Kong (#CUHK) rushed to protect the campus, as the police tried to siege the university with force.
As the police sealed off the roads, the closest one can get was Foo Tan. Some people walked from Ma On Shan while carrying bags of supply. Those who could not reach the campus cried helplessly before the live broadcast.
We love CUHK.
We love Hong Kong.
We love the young people of Hong Kong even more.
[Editor's note: The photo captured the civilian-police stand off on Bridge No. 2 on campus during the Battle of CUHK. Civilians were defending the university from the police's firing of thousands of tear gas grenades, rubber bullets and beanbag rounds with umbrellas.]

First Anniversary of CUHK Defense War: “Hong Kong Independence” Slogan Reappears but is Quickly Removed
On November 12, 2019, pro-democracy Hongkongers launched the Operation Dawn across different districts.
Debris was thrown to train tracks and Tolo Highway. At the No. 2 bridge of the Chinese University of Hong Kong (#CUHK), the police fired tear gas grenades towards civilians triggering the “CUHK Defense War”.
One year on, graffiti appeared in many places on the CUHK campus on the early morning of November 12, 2020.
Among them, the words “Hong Kong Independence” appeared on the external wall of the University Library located in the Central Campus; however, it was soon covered up with paint.

Democracy Wall Becomes Lennon Wall During the Commemoration of Battle of CUHK
A year after the police's attempt to siege the university campus, the students' union of the Chinese University of Hong Kong (#CUHK) held a retrospective exhibition on the campus.
The venue was crowded as many visitors came. As people stuck memos on the "democracy wall" of the students' union, it became a Lennon wall.
