Hong Kong is experiencing a major social transformation in 2019. Every moment can be a turning point in Hong Kong history. Images can often set the tone for major events and possibly define a social movement. Photojournalism has a distinct relationship with social movements and thus plays a critical role in the making of history. The talk will explore the role of photojournalism on history and society.
