Two petitions by global academics against police brutality in Hong Kong

Dear Colleagues,

Two long-standing and active members of RC02 would like you to consider adding your voice against the escalating tensions in Hong Kong. Below are two petitions for your consideration.

Aaron Pitluck (RC02 President)

From David Fasenfest:

The situation is escalating and is getting increasingly dangerous. The police are apparently entering campuses and students seemed to be arming themselves. There is no clear endgame in sight, and my fear is that this will not end well. Consider signing this petition to show support:
