On the Road

Thousands of people — some wearing prison uniforms — took to the streets in 香港 Hong Kong to demand the release of 羅冠聰 (Nathan Law Kwun-chung), 黃之鋒 (Joshua Wong Chi-fung), and 周永康 (Alex Chow Yong-Kang), jailed for between six and eight months on Thursday for their taking part in or inciting an “illegal assembly” that helped spark the 雨傘革命 (Umbrella Revolution) in late September 2014.
