Grades 6-12 | Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation presents China Now - May 21, 2024 12:10pm Eastern Time
About this event:
China is one of the nations still under communist rule and the communist regime continues to repress and kill its citizens. The modern regime is known for its repressive surveillance state, massacring thousands of pro-Democracy students at Tiananmen Square, and mass infanticide, culling its own people through the one child policy. Most recently, the communist party, led by President Xi Jinping, has unlawfully imprisoned Uyghurs in detention camps to “re-educate” them. Detainees are often tortured and forced to renounce their Muslim faith. They are also subject to China’s notoriously inhumane organ harvesting operation.
