Movement & Poetry Performance: Do You Know that I Am with You

Description:

Globalization of Uyghur advocacy resulted in them being known through the actions of the oppressor, rather than through their rich history, art, and culture. The unjust imprisonment of nearly all Uyghur intellectuals, musicians, artists, and writers, who serve as cultural gatekeepers in the Uyghur Region, has even accelerated the ongoing cultural genocide. In response, this interactive performance serves as a dedicated showcase of Uyghur culture, paying tribute to disappeared poets, celebrating the resilience of exiled artists, and aiming to raise awareness about the broader Uyghur crisis.
