Humanity At A Crossroads Surviving The Uyghur Genocide

March 5, 2021 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Free

Friday, March 5, 2021 – 10:00 am to 12:00 pm (AZ)
A VIRTUAL SEMINAR

SPEAKER: Uyghur Survivor, Zumret Dawut

Over the past few years, the Uyghur population’s rights have been violently stripped away, with millions detained in detention camps in China for “re-education.” Millions more are being used as slaves while Western companies profit off of their labor. The Uyghur situation was rightfully declared as genocide last month, by the United States, a title long affirmed by human rights groups. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum declared last year that there was reason to believe that the Chinese regime was committing crimes against humanity.

Join the Arizona Jewish Historical Society and Campaign For Uyghurs for a special program. We will hear from Zumret Dawut, who was a camp detainee, and was forcibly sterilized.
