The Northern California Hong Kong Club - 北加州香港會 - along with other student and community groups have organized this protest to condemn police's brutality, to reaffirm our five demands to the Hong Kong government, and to urge the passage of the Hong Kong Human Right and Democracy Act.

Two speakers:

Prof. Larry Diamond of Stanford University will share his thoughts on the pro-democracy protests.
Hayman Wong (UC Berkeley student) will share her ground zero experience in Hong Kong.

The people of Hong Kong are fighting for basic human rights, including freedom of the press, and the right to not imprisoned for criticizing the government.

Please come and show your support.

Take a look at Ben Norton's twitter at
https://twitter.com/BenjaminNorton and you will find that these Hong Kong "protesters" are bought and paid for by US imperialism with the notorious, CIA funded National Endowment for Democracy in charge. Quotable quotes:
"Ah yes, it's "eurocentric nonsense" to oppose right-wing bigoted anti-China insurgents whose leaders conspire with US diplomats, whose groups are funded by the NED, who want Hong Kong to be a British colony again, & who wave US flags -- please tell us more" followed by an excerpt from American military news where these alleged protesters are waving the American flag and singing the American anthem, a sure sign that they are agents of US imperialism. See
https://americanmilitarynews.com/2019/08/video-hong-kong-protesters-sing-us-anthem-with-us-flags-against-chinese-tyranny-during-airport-occupation/
And another quote:
"Even this ex-Reagan official admits on Hong Kong, "We're partially involved... We have funded millions of dollars in programs through the National Endowment for Democracy"" and
"Hong Kong is not a US colony; it doesn't belong to USA to "lose" — despite how much neoliberal pundits want it to be"
