The struggle for the soul of Hong Kong
Each Monday this August, we're looking back at some of the stories from the past year that stuck with us.
In June 2020, with the world's attention on the pandemic, Hong Kong’s freedoms were under threat as the Chinese government imposed a draconian new security law. Now, the city is experiencing its largest exodus since records began.
We revisit our interviews with two of Hong Kong's leading pro-democracy activists, and find out what they did next.
