Unfree Speech : The Threat to Global Democracy

An urgent manifesto for global democracy from Joshua Wong, the 23-year-old phenomenon leading Hong Kong’s protests – and Nobel Peace Prize nominee – with an introduction by Ai Weiwei
With global democracy under threat, we must act together to defend out rights: now.
Composed in three parts, Unfree Speech chronicles Joshua’s path to activism, collects the letters he wrote as a political prisoner under the Chinese state, and closes with a powerful and urgent call for all of us globally to defend our democratic values.
…
When we stay silent, no one is safe. When we free our speech, our voice becomes one.
