An estimated 500,000 children under the age of 5 are now being raised by the Chinese state.

[Things China Doesn't Want You To Know @TruthAbtChina]

When Uyghur parents are sent to the cotton fields or concentration camps in China, their children are often taken to segregated "education camps" where they are stripped of their ethnic identity through years of brainwashing and indoctrination.

Xinjiang, China, 2020-2021

On #InternationalYouthDay, we stand with Merdan Ghappar — a young Uyghur model who sent rare footage from inside China’s detention system. Shackled to his bed, he showed the world the truth. He’s been missing since March 2020.

@ProudSocialist @IndiaWilloughby Unless they’re Uyghur Muslim in which case they’re sent to concentration camps, tortured, raped and have their organs forcibly removed

Incredible news: Volkswagen will fully divest from Xinjiang, sell both plant and test track.

A huge victory for the Uyghur cause.

This comes after our work exposed forced labor linked to the test track, and the faulty factory audit.

I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve bought the banana🍌 !!! @SpaceX @Sothebys I am Justin Sun, and I’m excited to share that I have successfully acquired Maurizio Cattelan’s iconic work, Comedian for $6.2 million. This is not just an artwork; it represents a cultural phenomenon that bridges the worlds of art, memes, and the cryptocurrency community. I believe this piece will inspire more thought and discussion in the future and will become a part of history. I am honored to be the proud owner of the banana 🍌 and look forward to it sparking further inspiration and impact for art enthusiasts around the world.

Additionally, in the coming days, I will personally eat the banana 🍌as part of this unique artistic experience, honoring its place in both art history and popular culture. Stay tuned!

[Kiefer Sutherland @RealKiefer]

With a heavy heart, I tell you that my father, Donald Sutherland, has passed away. I personally think one of the most important actors in the history of film. Never daunted by a role, good, bad or ugly. He loved what he did and did what he loved, and one can never ask for more than that. A life well lived.
