We’re partnering with The Nation on a visual chronicle of untold stories as the coronavirus continues to spread across the United States and the rest of the world.

Billy H.C. Kwok documents the movement against a national security law that has effectively outlawed public dissent. See more on The Nation.

One of the most striking things I have witnessed has been the letters that young protesters have been writing in case that they are arrested or disappeared by security services. These “last letters” to be read in the event that they don’t return from the protests, explain to their families why they are protesting, and also serve as a ‘no-suicide declaration.’
