NATHAN LAW Nathan Law is a democracy activist from Hong Kong, now based in London as a refugee. He was the youngest elected legislator in Hong Kong and was named one of the 100 most influential people in the world by TIME in 2020. As a student leader, he was chairman of the Representative Council of the Lingnan University Students’ Union, acting president of the LUSU, and secretary-general of the Hong Kong Federation of Students. During the Umbrella Movement in 2014, Nathan was one of the five representatives who took part in the dialogue with the government, debating political reform. Upholding non-violent civic actions, Nathan, Joshua Wong, and other student leaders founded Demosistō in 2016 and ran for the Legislative Council election. Nathan was elected with 50,818 votes in the Hong Kong Island constituency and became the youngest Legislative Councilor in history. His seat was overturned in July 2017 following Beijing’s constitutional reinterpretation, and Nathan was later jailed for his participation in the Umbrella Movement. ............................................................................................................................
