Today, on February 5, 2025, we gathered in front of the Chinese Embassy in Washington, D.C., to protest against the Chinese government on the 28th anniversary of the Ghulja Massacre. We stand in remembrance of the innocent lives lost in 1997 and reaffirm our commitment to justice and truth. Their memory will never be forgotten, CCP will never be forgiven!

When will we hold China accountable for the innocent lives lost in Ghulja, Barin, Urumchi Massacres and for the ongoing genocide in East Turkistan!

This work highlights the latest measures the Chinese government is using to exert control over #Uyghurs, both in their homeland and across the diaspora. #EndUyghurGenocide
The Chinese government has been permitting some Uyghurs to travel to or from Xinjiang, with the apparent aim of presenting a public image of normalcy. @hrw shows that onerous requirements and official tours are the latest measures in the region.

Happening Now: We’re honored to be at the Special International Religious Freedom (IRF) Roundtable in the Cannon Caucus Room on Capitol Hill, joining faith leaders, policymakers, and advocates in a critical discussion on protecting religious freedoms worldwide. As we gather, we must shine a light on the ongoing genocide and persecution of Uyghur Muslims in China, where millions face forced labor, mass internment, and severe restrictions on their religious practices. Now more than ever, we must stand united in defending their fundamental rights. Many thanks to @IrfSecretariat for organizing this event. #IRFRoundtable #ReligiousFreedom #EndUyghurGenocide #HumanRights

Chairman @RepMoolenaar letter to the @ThaiEmbDC ambassador, urging not to deport the Uyghurs to China, where they will likely be sent to concentration camps. Any individual facilitating the Chinese Communist Party's genocide should face US sanctions. ⬇️
