My most recent video for @nytcooking explores how a bakery in Manhattan's Chinatown prepares thousands of mooncakes for the #midautumnfestival. This intricate process demands years of experience, hard work, and unwavering family support.

1/ It started in late Jan. when we noticed odd videos like this one on YouTube and Twitter.

Today, my latest for @propublica and @nytimes uncovers one of the most elaborate efforts to date by the CCP to deny its ongoing oppression of Uyghurs in Xinjiang.

How we got here:

[Shibani Mahtani @ShibaniMahtani]

Checking in for a flight to London (first time leaving the city in 17 months) and the line is full with HK families, many with young kids, and piles and piles of luggage. Something tells me very few of them are returning or going on holiday.

Very unusual image of the commanding officer and executive officer of #destroyer USS #MUSTIN DDG89 as they shadow #Chinese #carrier #LIAONING 16 in the Philippine Sea on 4 April. US #Navy rarely acknowledges both its efforts to shadow Chinese ships and Chinese shadowing US ships

Chinese officials were now discussing ways to change the electoral system to address “deficiencies” in the political structure, and elections might be further delayed. #HongKong

[Antony Blinken @ABlinken]

The sweeping arrests of pro-democracy demonstrators are an assault on those bravely advocating for universal rights. The Biden-Harris administration will stand with the people of Hong Kong and against Beijing’s crackdown on democracy. https://t.co/nSj8dr3OEg

One of the four Hong Kong activists who were turned away when they sought refuge in the US consulate in October has revealed that he was the teenager who was shot in the chest by a police officer during last year’s protests. #HongKong #HongKongProtests https://t.co/R0cMX0GPgH

[Owen Churchill @owenschurchill]

Asked @jeffreychngo for his thoughts on Cruz zapping a bill that would have offered him and other HK activists protected status in the US: "Let me think about what is the good word to use. I'm enraged." https://t.co/KxStGSvYyH

So it all comes down to Pennsylvania now. There is no way for #DonaldTrump to reach the magic number 270 without it, even if he wins Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona and Nevada... #ElectionResults2020 #Election2020 #elections #TrumpvsBiden
