Podcasts about hong kong protests

With the fifth anniversary of the last big Hong Kong marches behind us and the first anniversary of the National Security Law's imposition on the horizon, Jeffrey Wasserstrom and Emily Feng assess the city's recent past and significantly changed realities. What is the legacy of the protest surge of 2019? What is most and least surprising about how Hong Kong has been transformed in this decade? How can we place the Hong Kong story into national narratives about the way the PRC has been moving under Xi Jinping? How can we connect the Hong Kong events to trends in other parts of Asia and beyond? In an interview conducted on April 9, 2025, Jeffrey Wasserstrom and Emily Feng, in conversation with Sewell Chan, discuss the implications of developments in Hong Kong over the last ten years for HK-mainland relations, Sino-American relations, and trends in the region. About the speakers

"Safeguarding National Security Bill", also known as Article 23 of the Basic Law of Hong Kong, was passed in March to no public opposition. I read through the whole bill and discussed how it may be used to transgress human rights and common sense in Hong Kong. I also discuss the history of recent protests in Hong Kong, and how they paved the way for Beijing to get its way and increase its control over its peopleChapters (00:00) Introduction to Article 23(03:15) Background: protests and new legislation 2019 - 2021(13:07) Going through Article 23(16:00) Part 2: Treason(18:45) Part 3: Sedition(22:55) Part 4: Espionage(26:55) Part 5: Sabotage(27:27) Part 6: External Interference (31:15) Part 7: Enforcement(36:08) Foreign commentaryBuy me a coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/sinobabblepodLinks to everything: https://linktree.com/sinobabbleSupport the showSign up for Buzzsprout to launch your podcasting journey: https://www.buzzsprout.com/?referrer_id=162442Subscribe to the Sinobabble Newsletter: https://sinobabble.substack.com/Support Sinobabble on Buy me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Sinobabblepod

Many of Hong Kong's leading pro-democracy activists have been arrested, intimidated, or forced into exile in recent years as mainland China tightens its control. The latest security law to be passed, known as Article 23, has been called the “last nail in the coffin” for Hong Kong's civil society.  But those who still hold hope for change in the region are searching for new ways to keep the protest movement alive.  In this episode:  Patrick Fok (@PaddyFok) Journalist Samuel Chu (@SamuelMChu) Exiled Activist Anna Kwok (@AnnaKwokFY) Exiled Activist Episode credits: This episode was produced by Miranda Lin with our host Malika Bilal.

On June 30, Hong Kong will be subject to a new National Security Law. No one, not even Hong Kong’s Chief Executive, knows what will be in the bill, but details are slowly coming into focus. For critics, the legislation will create a ‘dual state’ that will undermine Hong Kong’s legal system and allow Beijing to target its opponents at will. For proponents, the bill will only affect a handful of people, and bring stability after a year of unrest. To ask whether the law spells the end of Hong Kong’s autonomy, Louisa and Graeme are joined by NYU legal expert Alvin Cheung, Lingnan University’s Ho Lok-sang and digital activist Glacier Kwong.

Call of Duty has returned to the name Modern Warfare with a 2019 take on modern combat. With it comes a new story campaign, new game modes and co-op making for a vast departure from last year's Black Ops 4. This one is more grounded, has a solid story and feels like a return to the feeling that captured us from Modern Warfare 1 and 2. In the news this week, J. Allen Brack apologizes for Blizzard's actions last month, EA announces they're bringing their games to Steam starting with Star Wars and Playstation Vue is shutting down next January.Our discussion this week revolves around Blizzcon itself. We discuss the overall feeling of the conference and their overall better showcase this year than last year's disaster with Diablo Immortal. They unveiled Diablo 4, Overwatch 2, a new WOW expansion called Shadowlands and Hearthstone Battlegrounds.

Hong Kong Protests Poised for Boost from House (Podcast) The House plans to show its support for ongoing protests in Hong Kong by considering two bipartisan bills. The measures would block sales of crowd control equipment, impose sanctions, and require an annual certification that Hong Kong is sufficiently independent from Beijing to justify the city's special treatment under U.S. trade law. On this episode of Bloomberg Government's “Suspending the Rules” podcast, Bloomberg News congressional reporter Daniel Flatley and BGOV legislative analyst Naoreen Chowdhury discuss the protests and congressional action, as well as China's response to the House bills.

It's quite the human task to be congruent and aligned with ourselves — to feel that who we are on the inside is expressed and reflected on the outside. Then there is all of what is within. Do you sacrifice, sell off, hide, or ignore parts of yourself? What does congruence feel like to you in your body? In this episode, how the Hong Kong Protests challenged me personally to stand up for all the parts of me, not just some, but to have compassion meanwhile. Also, the price we pay when we have codependency or where we are split in our choices, how to feel aligned in your body and congruent outwardly, living from the heart and looking deeper at social issues.     Links, Article, and Resources All Show Notes for This Episode

On the second Sunday in June, hundreds of thousands of people filled the streets of Hong Kong to protest a proposed law that would allow people to be extradited from the former British colony to mainland China. Yet, as the New York Times reported and subsequent media interviews have made clear, these protests are about more than one law. They're about preserving the freedoms that were promised when Britain returned control over Hong Kong to China in 1997, something that's been increasingly at risk given the increasingly dictatorial nature of China's Communist Party. To understand this story, you need to know a bit of the backdrop of when Great Britain ceded Hong Kong back to China in 1997. The agreement clearly stated a governing principle, dubbed “One Country, Two Systems” that would govern relations between Hong Kong and mainland China for 50 years. According to the agreement, Hong Kong's domestic affairs would be governed by systems it inherited from Britain, which included freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and eventually, free elections. Under this arrangement, Hong Kong became freer and more prosperous than the rest of China. This made the rest of China look bad. So less than 20 years into the agreed-upon 50 years, China began undermining Hong Kong's autonomy by attempting to “pre-screen” candidates in their 2014 elections. The response from Hong Kong became known as the “Umbrella Movement,” and included nine days of protest against Beijing's violation of the agreement. In 2014, as now, the protests were more than an objection to a singular law or political change. As the Wall Street Journal reported back then, the protests contained “an undercurrent of another, much older tension: Between Christianity and Communist China.” At least three of the founders of the Umbrella Movement were Christians, including the face of the movement, Joshua Wong. In fact, there was a strong Christian presence felt throughout the protests: “prayer groups, crosses, and protesters reading Bibles in the street.” Churches played a “quiet but important role in the city's protests, by offering food and shelter to demonstrators.” Oh, and one more thing to know (again from the Wall Street Journal): “Hong Kong churches have long tried to spread Christianity in China. Protestant pastors based in Hong Kong have helped propagate the evangelical brands of Christianity that have alarmed the Chinese leadership in Beijing with their fast growth.” In recent years, Beijing has gone from being alarmed about the growth of Christianity to declaring war on it. The people of Hong Kong realize that things have gotten a lot worse in China since 2014. They want nothing to do with Xi's “Socialism with Chinese characteristics.” And because (unlike their mainland cousins) their internet isn't censored, they know what is happening to the Uighurs and to the Christians today on the mainland. It shouldn't surprise us that, as Christianity Today reported, there's a significant Christian dimension to this year's protests as well, just like there was in 2014. In fact, back in April, several Christians, including Joshua Wong, were arrested and imprisoned for taking part in pro-democracy protests. Christians in Hong Kong aren't buying the government's spin that the proposed new law would “ensure that [Hong Kong does] not become a haven for fugitives and that existing legal protections and human rights would remain in force.” They realize that subverting Hong Kong's autonomy is yet another way for Communist officials to suppress Christianity and its influence. They realize that, as the Times points out, laws like these are intended to “extend China's reach into Hong Kong and strip its residents of the protection of the law.” And we can be certain, the first protections to be stripped will be those of Hong Kong's Christians.
