The events occurring in Hong Kong during the summer of 2019 are the fruits of a seed planted in 2014's Umbrella Revolution, another protest movement that lasted for several months and occupied vast swaths of the city. Erik Wennermark lived in Hong Kong at the time and, from the very first moments that sparked the rebellion, found himself writing about it for the months, and even years, following. In this ebook, he looks at the current events in Hong Kong and provides elements of his past writings to provide context for the stories being told today about the struggles of Hong Kong people. These earlier pieces were published in places such as Guernica, Asian Review of Books, and Hong Kong Free Press. The ebook also includes selections of his photography of the protests from 2014.
