Panel Discussion. Milk Tea Alliance: Regional Activist Networks in Asia.
17:30-19:30
Invalidenstr. 118, Raum 117
In April 2020, the Milk Tea Alliance emerged as a collective effort among Asian netizens to fight against cyberattacks from pro–Chinese Communist Party users. The alliance later expanded beyond the online sphere, as its symbols and meaning were adopted by youth protesters across the region. From the streets of Hong Kong to Taipei, Bangkok, and Yangon, the Milk Tea Alliance became a symbol of cross-border solidarity and a representation of collaboration against authoritarianism and democratic backsliding. However, over time, the prominence and significance of the Milk Tea Alliance in public spaces have diminished among activists in the region. This discussion seeks to revive the spirit of the Milk Tea Alliance by creating a space for dialogue among activists from the alliance’s original member regions: Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand, and Myanmar, to deepen mutual understanding of each other’s struggles and highlight the importance of transnational collaboration amid the current wave of autocratization.
Four versions of milk tea will be provided.
