We will broadcast a testimony from Zhang Xianling (張先玲), a member of the Tiananmen Mothers. Additionally, we will read an important statement from Chow Hang-tung, who will be staging a 37-hour hunger strike from prison in Hong Kong.
Throughout the evening, we will be joined by speakers representing the Uyghur and Tibetan communities, Hong Kongers in exile, and local human rights activists. Their presence underscores that the struggle for justice and civil liberties is a shared commitment.
As this year also marks the 60th anniversary of the Cultural Revolution, one of our speakers will offer reflections on the historical connection between the Cultural Revolution and the 1989 Democracy Movement.

今年是 1989 年民主運動與六四屠殺 37 週年。我們今年的燭光悼念以「永志長明」為主題。
這個主題是為了紀念在 1989 年屠殺中遇害的學生熊志明,他的父親也在近期過世。活動中,我們將講述他的故事,使抗爭和人道精神長明未央。
我們將播放「天安門母親」成員張先玲女士的證詞,並宣讀鄒幸彤女士獄中聲明——她將在香港獄中展開 37 小時的絕食悼念。
當晚集會,維吾爾人、藏人、流亡港人以及當地人權活動人士將發言。這體現了爭取正義與公民自由的共同承諾—唯有每個人都享有自由,才是真正的自由。今年也正值文化大革命 60 週年,將有講者探討文革與 1989 年民主運動之間的歷史聯繫與反思。
