佢係邊個Who she is
何桂藍 1990 年喺香港出世。佢喺香港電台做過實習記者，之後為 BBC 中文、台灣《報導者》、《主場新聞》同《立場新聞》採訪。
2019 年 7 月 21 日晚，元朗西鐵站有人被無差別襲擊。何桂藍一路做直播，一路被人打——佢拍卡出閘嗰陣，一個被網民叫做「西瓜佬」嘅男人用藤條襲擊佢。畫面經《立場新聞》傳出去，成為好多香港人記得嗰一晚嘅方式。到 2026 年 7 月，事發七年，呢個人從未被檢控。
2020 年 6 月，佢離開新聞界參選立法會。同年 7 月嘅民主派初選，佢喺新界東以 26,802 票勝出；7 月 30 日，選舉主任裁定佢提名無效。
2021 年 1 月 6 日，佢同另外五十幾個人因為參與初選被捕。2 月 28 日被正式落案控告「串謀顛覆國家政權」，3 月 4 日被拒絕保釋，自此還押。2024 年 5 月 30 日罪名成立。11 月 19 日判囚 7 年——由頭到尾佢無認罪，亦無求情。
2026 年 2 月，上訴庭駁回佢嘅定罪上訴。同年 8 月，上訴庭批准佢同另外十名被告向終審法院申請上訴。聆訊排期喺 2026 年 12 月 10 日。
Gwyneth Ho Kwai-lan was born in Hong Kong in 1990. She interned at RTHK and went on to report for BBC Chinese, Taiwan’s The Reporter, House News and Stand News.
On the night of 21 July 2019, a mob attacked people indiscriminately at Yuen Long MTR station. Ho kept live-streaming while she was being beaten — as she came through the ticket gates, a man known online by the nickname “Watermelon Guy” (西瓜佬) struck her with a rattan cane. The footage, carried by Stand News, became the way many people in Hong Kong remember that night. As of July 2026, seven years on, that man has never been charged.
In June 2020 she left journalism to stand for the Legislative Council. She won the pro-democracy primary in New Territories East that July with 26,802 votes; on 30 July a returning officer ruled her nomination invalid.
On 6 January 2021 she was arrested, along with more than fifty others, over that primary. She was charged with conspiracy to commit subversion on 28 February, refused bail on 4 March, and has been in custody ever since. She was convicted on 30 May 2024 and sentenced on 19 November 2024 to seven years — she never pleaded guilty and offered no plea in mitigation.
In February 2026 the Court of Appeal dismissed her appeal against conviction. That August it granted her, and ten co-defendants, leave to take the case to the Court of Final Appeal. The hearing is set for 10 December 2026.

佢寫嘅嘢In her own words
何桂藍做記者嗰陣寫，參選嗰陣寫，還押之後一樣寫。有啲文章喺《立場新聞》嘅存檔度搵得返；有啲係佢喺獄中寫，再由支持者幫佢貼出嚟。呢一節會繼續加。Ho wrote as a reporter, wrote as a candidate, and has kept writing from inside. Some pieces survive in the Stand News archive; others she writes in prison and supporters post for her. This section will keep growing.
「要說我是如何因 2019 而改變，其實很簡單：見識過香港人可以有幾勇敢，我都想試吓勇敢一點。」“How did 2019 change me? It is simple: I saw how brave Hong Kong people could be, and I wanted to try being a little braver myself.”
「選擇不認罪不是為了任何事或任何人，而係我對自己的一份期許：幾限制重重，幾無可能都好，我都信只要夠認真同努力，我都可以搵到缺口。」“Pleading not guilty was not for any cause or any person. It is what I ask of myself: however hemmed in, however impossible, I believe that if I am serious enough I can still find a gap to open.”

留言牆The message wall
同呼吸，共命運。One breath, one fate.
呢句嘢印喺 2020 年街站派嘅傳單上面。佢而家喺牆入面，我哋喺牆外面——呢幅牆就係為咗唔好畀呢句話變成空話。 This line was printed on the leaflets handed out at the street stalls in 2020. She is inside the wall and we are outside it; this wall exists so that the line does not become empty.
呢度係一幅牆。留一句畀佢。This is a wall. Leave her a line.
留言會由義工睇過先會貼上去，所以唔會即刻出現。留名係自願嘅——唔填都完全冇問題，一樣會貼。A volunteer reads every message before it goes up, so yours will not appear straight away. Giving a name is optional — leave it blank and your message still goes on the wall.
我哋淨係儲你打嘅字同你自己揀填嘅名。冇 IP、冇電郵、冇追蹤 cookie。想刪返自己嗰句，話我哋知就得。 We keep only the words you type and the name you choose to give. No IP address, no email, no tracking cookies. If you want your line taken down, just say so.
你可以做啲咩What you can do
「我最希望的是不要有任何人為了我而內疚⋯⋯如果真係要為來為去的話，就為了我而更勇敢吧。」“What I want most is that nobody feels guilty on my account… If it really has to be for someone, then be braver — for me.”
何桂藍，《共同、記憶、勇氣》 Gwyneth Ho, “Together, Memory, Courage” · unofficial translation
寫封信畀佢Write to her
一封信真係入到去。我哋而家同國際特赦組織傾緊點樣安排，寄信地址同寫信指引確認咗就會放喺呢度。A letter really does reach her. We are working out the arrangements with Amnesty International; the address and the guidance on what to write will appear here once confirmed.
留一句喺牆上Leave a line on the wall
唔使留名，一兩句都得。義工睇過就會貼上去。No name needed, and a line or two is enough. A volunteer reads it, then it goes up.
傳開佢Pass it on
佢還押第 2,000 幾日，新聞已經唔再提。將呢個網址傳畀仲記得佢嘅人。She is past two thousand days in custody and the news has stopped saying her name. Send this link to anyone who still remembers her.
