China’s treatment of Uighur Muslims exposed

There’s a humanitarian crisis happening in China. Over a million Uighur and other Muslim minorities are forcibly held in mass detention camps in the Xinjiang province where they face countless human rights abuses from forced labor, coerced sterilization, and destruction of their culture and religious identity.  Recently, unknown hackers broke into Xinjiang police servers leaking thousands of photographs and documents that provide solid evidence of Chinese government policy targeting the Uighur population.  In this episode, Sami Zeidan speaks with an Uighur American activist who has several missing family members, including her sister, who has been detained.  In this episode: Rushan Abbas (@RushanAbbas), Director of Campaign for Uyghurs (@CUyghurs) Credits:This episode was produced by Khaled Soltan, Hayat Mongodin, and host Sami Zeidan.
