Over the last several months I’ve fielded a lot of good-faith questions from people about what’s happening in Xinjiang. I’ve been translating and summarizing a number of primary source documents as I go through the research. The first batch is online here: https://wokeglobaltimes.com/xinjiang 

This is maybe 10% done, but I hope it helps provide some context, particularly for non-Mandarin speakers, on the evidence at play. It is absolutely critical that those on the Western left maintain a critical eye towards hawkishness *without* excusing the sins of other governments

Nothing in here is a smoking gun (yet). There are a wealth of sources—from major or US-backed media organizations to scholars with lifelong experience in XJ and the testimony of relatives and former detainees—that can help you contextualize it all. Please do not just write it off

This kind, extremely bright interlocutor has pointed out that I, an obvious white supremacist, could include more Chinese (or even better, Uyghur) voices (despite my blog so far mainly being translations of Chinese stuff). So here are some recommendations: https://twitter.com/sweetmangofeels/status/1320248452974952449?s=20

(This took about 2 mins to pull together tho so idk why you couldn't do this urself (also sorry for mass tag )
Some Chinese people who have written about the crisis include @chenchenzh @Crescentosier @yangyang_cheng @Yaqiu @wang_maya

There are even more Uyghur voices, and yes, a small number of them who maintain that everything is TOTALLY FINE!!!! More critical voices include: @MahmutRahima
@KewserWayit @AbdurehimGheni @MamutjanAB @JewherIlham @SamiraImin off the top of my head.
