Protesters in Hong Kong are planning to stage a local version of a “human chain” demonstration, inspired by one that took place 30 years ago among Baltic nations that sought to break away from communism.
The proposal, first suggested by a user on the Reddit-like LIHKG forum that’s popular with protesters for planning future demonstrations, calls for people to gather at 7:15 p.m. local time on Aug. 23, along sections of three major metro lines in Hong Kong: the Island, Kwun Tong, and Tsuen Wan lines.
