Perhaps the world’s most dreadful human rights crisis is
happening in East Turkistan, as China
is Detaining Muslims to reshape their thinking and erase their identities.
Millions of Uyghurs are detained in these massive
concentration camps, and their loved ones around the world are trying to publicize
the human rights crisis, while demanding the Chinese government to announce what has happened to the detainees.
One man highlighted that he could not get in touch with his
mother for years and stated: “My mother has done no crime against the Chinese
government, except [for] being Uyghur and being Muslim”.
After reports referred to
a Uyghur musician killed in custody, Chinese authorities released a video to
prove he was alive, other Uyghur
families are demanding China to publish videos showing their loved ones are
still alive as well. Uyghurs who live around the world and have relatives
living in China primarily practice Islam, they have launched #MeTooUyghur and #SaveUyghur facing China's Dictatorship with this simple demand.
There is a growing pressure on China to tell the world if
the Uyghurs they are detaining in Eastern Turkistan are alive and well, the
hashtag #MeTooUyghur or #MeTooUighur is being used to keep that pressure on.
The Chinese government made a response, in which it stated, “Do
you think we are going to release millions of response videos?”
