Artist James Powderly was arrested in Beijing for his plan of projecting Tibetan Independence slogans. The writer cites example of the artist's group's previous work in MOMA New York as a defense. The writer thinks the authorities should embrace different opinions, instead of infringing the freedom of speech and expression of individuals. 

藝術家 James Powderly 因打算在奧運期間展示支持西藏獨立的字句,而被有關當局扣留。作者認為北京此舉侵犯言論自由,並對當事人表示支持。
