FREE THE UIGHUR MUSLIMS
China is holding the Uighur Muslims in detainment camps. They need our help.

WHY SHOULD WE CARE

The Uighurs are from a region in China where the major religion is Islam. Slowly, the Han Chinese began to opress the Muslims in this area. In 2015, they began to be placed in internment camps, similar to how the Jewish people were placed into camps during World War II. This needs to be stopped before it becomes another Holocaust.

THE FACTS

The Muslim Population of Xinjiang(home to the Uighur People):
12 million
2018 estimate of detainment(first report):
120,000 detained for supposed extremism
Second estimate of detainment in 2018:
A million Muslim people placed in camps
Current estimate of detainment:
Unknown, but at least 2 million

Even with 2 million of them in camps, the Uighur people left in their homes still face opression, and treatment almost as bad as within the camps.

IN THE CAMPS

The people inside the camps are treated inhumanely. They are beaten, shot, their heads shaved, and more. Women are forced to take birth control, and some are sterilized, to prevent a future generation. All the while, China complains its camps are voluntary.
