About
The League of Social Democrats (LSD) was a prominent opposition group in Hong Kong. While the provided articles indicate the group is now defunct, its former members remain active in pro-democracy advocacy. Chan Po-ying, identified as the former chairwoman of the LSD, was recently detained by Hong Kong police along with six others for appearing in Causeway Bay with flowers and dressed in black to commemorate the 37th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square crackdown. This event highlights the ongoing scrutiny and actions taken by authorities against individuals associated with past pro-democracy movements. The mention of LSD in this context underscores the continued relevance of its former leadership and their participation in activities that evoke memories of past political struggles and calls for human rights, even as the organization itself may no longer be formally active.
