On a large part, these records serve as an important segway to understanding Wong’s position and point of view in the 2019 Hong Kong Protest. This fonds includes a series of political essays written by Wong. They reported on key events that took place during the Protest and expressed his visions for truth, justice, and harmony. The research materials for the essays feature first-hand interviews, photographs, and videos of petitions sites.
