@uhrp.orgWhile China celebrates Oct 1 as National Day, Uyghurs remember it as a day of dispossession and grief.
77 years after of the CCP's takeover of East Turkistan, China must be held accountable for its ongoing genocide and crimes against humanity against the Uyghur people.
@uhrp.orgUHRP was honored to stand with the Tibetan Youth Congress in D.C. to protest Xi Jinping’s state visit last week. UHRP's Omer Kanat spoke about the shared struggle of Tibetans and Uyghurs, and the importance of standing together against the Chinese government’s efforts to eradicate our identities:
@uhrp.orgDuring Xi’s state dinner last week, UHRP joined Uyghurs, Tibetans, Hong Kongers, and supporters to march to the White House, raising our voices to make clear: the CCP’s human rights violations cannot be ignored. Thank you to everyone who marched and stood with us.
