Chapter 6 discusses how Tiananmen commemoration was challenged
from within the broadly defined pro-democracy movement in Hong Kong
as a result of the rise of localism in the early to mid-2010s. The analysis
reconstructs how the challenge of localism entered the mainstream
media, and how the Umbrella Movement constituted a critical event
strengthening this challenge. It also discusses how memory entrepreneurs
responded to the challenge by reframing the significance of Tiananmen
commemoration in order to seek common ground.
