Protest outside of the Star Ferry entrance in Hong Kong against the Communist Party.

The above image was taken of a table filled with anti-communist literature in front of the entrance to the Star Ferry in Kowloon (Hong Kong). I lived in Hong Kong during the Handover to China in 1997 after which many were convinced that Hong Kong would lose all of its freedoms and autonomy. This didn't happen.

I was stunned a week ago when I saw the these protests regarding communistic rule and also in a separate display right outside of the Star Ferry entrance protests against the Falun Gong violence in China.

Falun Gong members meet with the public and distribute literature.

I talked with the volunteers and asked if they were afraid. They said the protests are approved by the government for every Saturday and Sunday. Despite the apparent accepting attitude of the government I applaud these very, very brave people.
