The tear gas triggered even more anger and more citizens joining.nnAt the heart of this is a civil disobedience movement launched by democracy activists Occupy Central. When China made its ruling, Occupy Central promised demonstrations.nnThen students in Hong Kong began a separate class boycott in late September and when they broke into the main government compound on Friday, Occupy kicked off its campaign early.nnVIDEO CREDIT 鳴謝: BBC, CNN, Apple Daily 蘋果日報, SocREC 社會記錄頻道, USP United Social Press 社媒nn*To ensure better quality and to speed up the pace, parts of the video are sped upn為加快影片進度，部分片段會以 2 倍速度播放nn#UnbrellaRevolution #hkclassboycott #OccupyCentral #UmbrellaMovement Less
