Hong Kong Rallies

Demonstrators march during a pro-democracy rally seeking greater democracy in Hong Kong on July 1, 2014 as frustration grows over the influence of Beijing on the city.

A pro-democracy movement is hoping for free elections of Hong Kong's new leader in 2017, and staged a huge rally earlier this summer. Then marchers loyal to Beijing responded with their own protest in opposition to the movement. Michael Forsythe of The New York Times reports from Hong Kong, on who’s behind both movements, what each wants and what it means for the future of voting, the economy and democracy there.
