I believe Shanghai has a road named after the city of Urumqi. It was the gathering place for a memorial of the fire victims and then escalated from there to the larger protests.

There was a rather large demonstration for the Chinese community in front of the consulate and when more and more protesters arrived, on the pier. Apart from protesting against the regime, it included a vigil for the victims of that fire. https://youtu.be/s2i6lxBwdrA

This is Falun Gong. They are out there every day protesting the CCP but they also run a very far right news paper the Epoch Times here in the US. I am not going to get involved in who is correct because both the CCP and Falun Gong are nuts

No, the group spray painting and protesting on Tuesday was huge, had younger people, and was there at night. Different from Falun Gong, who are usually gone by late afternoon and are a smaller group.
