Blossom everywhere: the territoriality of Hong Kong’s neighbourhood Lennon walls.

This empirical study investigates the neighborhood Lennon Walls of Hong Kong during the Anti-Extradition Bill Movement in 2019, which served as a platform for the public to express their opinions using sticky notes. Drawing on the discourse of territoriality, we argue that the Lennon Walls campaign de-territorialized public and private properties in local neighborhoods, thereby making them a social space for communication and broadening support and participation. The Lennon Wall sub-campaign strengthened the entire social movement. The findings enrich the debate of territoriality discourse in a social movement from protesters’ perspective and detail the understanding of the de-territoriality process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
