Labor and Civic Engagement

Voice has carried commentary standing with workers and grassroots action, including reflection on dockworkers striking at the Kwai Chung Container Terminals, published as "Dockwork built Men."

Writers have also addressed public forums and civic mobilization, such as coverage tied to a New Year's Day parade mobile forum discussion on a creative nomination committee.

  • Support for labor rights and dockworker strike actions.
  • Reflection on education policy, including opposition to the Moral and National Education Curriculum.
  • Engagement with civic forums and public demonstrations.

Faith and Public Memory

Some Voice pieces connect faith reflection to remembered events, such as the article "Failure June 4, Failure Jesus," published June 3, 2013, written by Kim Ling and Frankie, translated by Mark L, linking the Tiananmen Student Movement to reflection on the crucifixion.

Related commentary has also explored nonviolent resistance as a civic and theological question.
