28 open letters from citizens in different sectors of Hong Kong society
Citizens across Hong Kong condemn the July 21 Yuen Long attacks and police inaction; police brutality against protesters; government inaction in the face of the biggest political crisis in Hong Kong since the handover; and call on the government to fulfill the four (in some cases, five) demands demonstrators have been making since June. These letters, as a collection, give a sense of just how broadly civil society has mobilized to demand accountability and basic rights.
NOTE: Since this piece was published and before July 27, 38 more open letters from various groups appeared, for a total of 66 in all. As soon as I get the time, I will add them below. For now, a list of all 66 can be found (in Chinese only) here.
