Silence is Not an Option: Advocacy and Action (Genocide in the 21st Century: The Uyghur Crisis)

Silence is Not an Option: Advocacy and Action (Genocide in the 21st Century: The Uyghur Crisis)

With millions being arbitrarily detained and imprisoned in labor camps in the Xinjiang region of China simply for speaking a different language and practicing a different culture, Silence Is Not An Option. Sit down with our panelists for a chance to listen to three individually unique stories all with the same end goal, to free their family, friends, and neighbors from the regime's tight grasp. Whether working as a journalist, teacher, researcher, or advocate these amazing activists go in-depth into their personal experiences and the prosecution they've undergone, as well as share how we can all do our part to end the Uyghur Genocide taking place in Xinjiang. Moderator: Guillermo S. Hava, Coordinator of the Harvard Human Rights Working Group, Harvard University Panelists: Jewher Ilham, Uyghur human rights activist Gulchehra Hoja, Uyghur journalist Irade Kashgary, Uyghur activist and HRF Freedom Fellow Closing Remarks: Dr. Victoria Tin-bor Hui, Associate Professor of Political Science at University of Notre Dame
