五絕• 香江少年
不寄低簷下，直登風雨樓。危欄笑中拍，千古枉悲秋。

Eric, a 22-year-old student, told Reuters news agency: "Telling us not to protest is like telling us not to breathe. I feel it's my duty to fight for democracy. Maybe we win, maybe we lose, but we fight."
We may debate the way Eric goes about being a “valiant warrior” —— and I certainly do —— but no way we can or should defend silence.
Make our voice heard in support of Eric’s cause. Quote him.
You don’t have to be an American citizen or a green card holder to contact the White House and Congress when voicing your opinion as a Hongkonger —— or as a Mainland Chinese for that matter.
Cynicism works for totalitarianism. Don’t let it be part of us.
