Hong Kong resembles a war zone. Twenty-four weeks after millions demonstrated against a Chinese extradition bill, violent clashes between protesters and police are worse than ever. For this episode of the Mother Jones Podcast, host Jamilah King talks with Denise Ho, one of the most prominent leaders of the pro-democracy movement. Ho is an award-winning singer and songwriter who has been putting out hit albums since the late 1990s. But now, since becoming a political activist, her music has been banned in mainland China. Listen for a detailed analysis of what it’s like in Hong Kong today, Ho's opinions about the NBA Twitter dust up, and thoughts on the role of celebrity in this moment of political crisis. (And stay for a special performance, right at the end.)
