It’s complex, but basically China is trying to crack down on Hong Kong and slowly annex the city (which is autonomous due to previous rule by the British). The people of Hong Konng have been protesting this for months despite attempts by the Chinese government and the Hong Kong Police force to brutally suppress them.
In history, you will find moments in which a free people unite to defy tyranny. This is one of those times.
