Awaiting a Democratic Hong Kong
This is Glutter’s 1000th post.
Again, I have turned part of my site black, this time not to protest but to mourn. I am mourning a man, but also a symbol. A man who is a symbol of a more open, accepting, reformist China.
In places where people can not speak their minds without persecution, a lot of weight is attached to the subtext. The meaning behind an act is
all the more powerful. When his daughter said “He is free at last.” She was saying something about his hopes, her hopes and mine as well.
Glutter Mourns the death of Zhao Zi Yang.
I love your site b/c I learn. I’m in the process f reconstituting my weblog, and think that maybe I’ll try to take a more socially-conscious approach.
I had never heard or read about Yang until I read your posts. I’m grateful for that.

Happy 1000 Yan, I hope you’re around in another 1000. Hong Kong would be very boring without you blogging.

DISCLAIMER: By so doing, you are probably breaking the Basic Laws and, by logical or illogical inference, may by liable to scolding and brain-laundering by our adorable Communist comrades, the reason being that two is definitely bigger than one.
