Support Hong Kong

So when was the last time you heard about a protest movement being described as taking the "high ground???" That kind of blows me away, and most of these are kids in High School, College, and new grads. What a story. I am anxiously awaiting the result of the talk they have agreed to have. This is one of my former and very respected Chinese professors, who organized some of her students to show support for the HK protests. 
I recommend this article from the New Yorker, for a general update, but I'm sure that the information will soon be old news.
