      From the yellow vests movement in France to pro-democracy rallies in Hong Kong to demonstrations against racial injustice in the US, journalists around the world are facing huge challenges in covering new forms of protest. They're covering movements without clear leaders that are live-streamed 24/7, organized almost entirely online and which may turn violent in seconds.
