  • This photo taken on May 28, 2020 shows a visitor gesturing the protest slogan "Five demands and not one less" as she poses next to the new "Lady Liberty" statue during an exhibition named "We Are Not __" in Hong Kong. - The new statue shows a female protester with her hands pushing both the ceiling and the floor in what the team says is a posture that signifies Hong Kongers' struggle. The original one depicted a female protester in a gas mask, protective goggles and helmet, an umbrella in one hand and a black flag in the other, proclaiming the protest slogan "Liberate Hong Kong, revolution of our times". It was a regular feature at the larger, more peaceful rallies last summer, eliciting cheers when it was wheeled in by volunteers and transported around the city on the back of a truck. Pro-democracy protesters hauled the four-metre statue to the top of a famous Hong Kong mountain early on October 13 last year, announcing the peak would be its "final resting place". It was soon vandalised and torn down.
