Stunning. 34% of the population in Chinese prisons are #Uyghurs, who make up ~1-2% of the population.
China has a top-down strategy to, basically, criminalize an entire ethnic group and, with time, eliminate their unique cultural, religious, and social identity.
Partnering or working with the Chinese government means supporting these genocidal policies. That includes #climate & #environment groups, too.
@ncoca it says "in Uyghur region" which would suggest it means Xinjiang, which isnt all of China, is it just bad captioning?
@gwit from the body "Uyghurs, Turkic and other non-Han people’s account for 1% of the overall population of China, but comprise 33.7% of the national prison population;"
