Trigger warning: tortureMihrigul Tursun, Chinese citizen, recounts her journey out of China to higher education and global awareness: now she was surrounded by donkeys instead of chickens! Outside the PRC she also experienced her Islamic awakening, which would end up costing her freedom and threaten her children’s lives. Something as simple as what she newly wore on her head identified her as the “other” in the PRC, and landed her in a concentration camp. That’s not what they’re called by any media, Chinese or otherwise. They’re called “re-education centers.”She recounts her torture by the PRC and the conditions of her release. What she saw behind the walls of these centers is beyond our imaginations. It’s mind blowing to think that any government could sell her limited options as choices, laced with threat and death, to barter her release to civilian society. Only it wasn’t, as all of her limited civil liberties in the PRC, were shrunken further just because she was Muslim.Tune in to hear her story in her own words at 6pm EST on Apple podcasts or Stitcher (both on your phones already!), Amazon Music, ask Alexa, or go directly to our website and catch up on this limited series.
