May God help and protect the Hong Kong people and may the leaders of the world stand up for Hong Kong.

Emily Lau, a woman with wisdom and dignity. Pelosi only matched her shoes.

Who else finds it refreshing to see an interviewer who has clearly done his homework, asks good questions and then actually lets the interviewee speak without interrupting? I'm definitely liking this kind of old school journalism.

Brave woman, symbol of Hong Kong's free spirit. Hope the CCP falls in a pile of flame for their atrocities.

Vital but heartbreaking content. I wish the Hong Kong citizens Godspeed and look forward to the fall of the CCP in this decade.

[doncox]

I hope it's not to late.these people have known freedom all there lives and it could be taken away.
Now we can see why they have been fighting in the streets for over a year.

I couldn't agree more. The world has to stand up to Beijing otherwise, they will take over Asia.

Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of the Hongkongers.

Challenging authority and challenging polices are a part of democracy
