ALT Quote: To address how it connects with the people of Hong Kong: for over 35 years, "June Fourth" has remained significant. Before 2019, we actively remembered the 1989 democratic movement because we had witnessed it. After 2019, we encountered similar challenges, including the suppression of human rights, persecution of political dissenters, detention without trial, and surveillance of sensitive topics. These events have deepened our connection.

ALT Quote: Having endured the anti-extradition law movement in 2019, Hongkongers now possess a deeper understanding of "June 4th," akin to the "Tiananmen Mothers," forging a shared destiny under the oppression of an authoritarian regime. Over the past 30+ years, the suppression of human rights, persecution of political dissidents and prisoners of conscience, arbitrary detention without trial, pervasive surveillance, and numerous sensitive topics and red lines, once confined to mainland China, have now become part of Hong Kong's reality.

ALT Quote: If you have a ten-year old child, completely untamed and innocent, with eyes so full of beauty. And yet, you know full well that once the unjust regime catches eye on the youth, they will be trampled on ruthlessly by the system, and their freedom will be snatched away. Would you, still, wish your child to be able to tell right from wrong, and to take risks in pursuit of the truth? Now imagine that you were the one who died 30 years ago. Looking down from heaven, you found that your parents are still under the regime’s surveillance, and are forced to live in a world of lies. Will you, then, urge your grey-haired parents to forgive and forget, or would you rather that they remain steadfast in their faith for justice? Do you have an absolute answer?
