Rowena He, a Tiananmen massacre historian, spoke out about the fear and self-censorship prevalent in Hong Kong due to the ongoing crackdown on dissent. He, a Chinese-Canadian academic, was denied a work visa and fired from the Chinese University of Hong Kong. She stated that the red lines are fuzzy and people censor themselves out of fear. He believes that the younger generation in mainland China is more open-minded and expects them to continue protesting. Meanwhile, the crackdown on dissent continues, with a former overseas student sentenced to two months in jail for publishing online speech with seditious intent. Hong Kong Chief Executive John Lee has vowed to "eradicate the causes of dissent" in the city.
