Be Water, My Friend: Human Stories of the 2019 Hong Kong Protest Laika

Episode 1: Differences between Umbrella Movement (2014) and Water Revolution (2019)

This episode gives you the insight of a 23-year-old protester, who participated in both the Umbrella Movement (2014) and the Water Revolution (2019).

How is the current protest different from the pro-universal-suffrage Umbrella Movement in 2014? Why does the Water Revolution last so much longer than the Umbrella Movement?



Important questions every protester should ask:

What makes a social movement successful? 

How do we measure the success of a movement? 

Why do some movements last longer than the others? 



To answer these questions, we must look back and reflect upon what has happened, what we have experienced. Let this podcast be a historical record of this glorious time in Hong Kong history.
