but this family is incomplete her mother is detained in one of the so-called bookish no education centers in the chinese region. of those any back has resettled abroad she doesn't feel free all safe at all. i'm getting under my father and other relatives told me not to ask any questions about my mother to not try to find her but to think about our situation and the difficulties we are in or it will turn out badly for us in the future. many of those who are skate young to countries like catholics turn have similar stories to share our back qualities wife is also in detention quality gets to speak to her sometimes but he says any help he's offering seems to cause her more trouble. by wife has been interrogated several times he asked the where the money came from said was it from

a terrorist and said you'll be reeducated they put such pressure on her now even if i want to send the money she won't accept it. the alleged internment camps in china target mostly ethnic we cause but ethnic hazards and other muslim minorities are also affected and even for those who've managed to escape she junk life hasn't improved much activists say refugees are being routinely harassed to the point of desperation. chinese authorities have told the ethnic jiang not to speak about it it told them if they gave an interview to journalists they'd find them in kazakhstan or put their relatives incomes in china. i thought my. some say the alleged intimidation breaches as far away as new zealand shower doing up to poor is an ethnic we go who lives in oakland 10 years have passed since the former cameramen fled china and he's worried about his brother's whereabouts i ask

i asked him what he's been hearing about your rivals about what's been happening back home. the this stories that we're hearing is still very disturbing to say the least that the chinese government has created this open air prison like environment for those leaders who are not in the camps their every movement that they make in the society being the monitor the chinese police have been. monitoring families. and forcing them to go through a daily reeducation and. various government offices and government entities this is psyche has been turned into a police state controlled heavily controlled open in prison it's very oppressive the government still continuing because it has not been a. either domestic or external force force the government to stop their behaviors

it seems like a lot of overseas weak areas and also like in the video report ethnic acts really have their hands tied behind their backs and they feel like they can't say anything for fear of the impact it would have on friends and families back in china what are people in the diaspora doing to try to raise awareness of the camps in china. the risks of speaking out were telling sharon a story is very very big as it's shown various cases recently to at least 2 australian the dems. told the audience through a t.v. interview that they have been very his didn't share stories even in one instance one australian that week or who were detained in one of those camps did not feel comfortable safe to go out and shared stories this has been the case with many

week as around the world any weaker that you talk to can tell you that either their direct founding members or friends or someone they know have been take in the camps but they're not in the position to. come out and tell the stories even in the united states there are several weeks in academia and business have been directly people in the united states government without speaking to media representatives because of the potential retaliation against them from the chinese government and also so in some instances they weaker we are family members brought up to talk to the family members overseas and using the family members to pressure their forum base that children or both of us to stay quiet that was we get american activist check out speaking to us from washington to the philippines now and the popular
