Hong Kong protesters of different ages hold hands across the road in a busy local residential area to form human chain to call for democracy. They would retreat back to the pavement when the traffic light for the pedestrians turns red to let the traffic of Hong Kong protesters link hands to form human chain across the city to call for democracy. The chains, which traced three subway routes, totaled around 40 kilometers (25 miles) in length. The protesters said they were inspired by the “Baltic Way’, when millions created a chain across three countries (Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania) to protest Soviet occupation exactly 30 years ago, and is the latest in the nearly 11-week-old movement that began with calls to scrap a now-suspended extradition bill and has broadened to include demands for full democracy and an independent inquiry into alleged police brutality.
