Yes, he talks sense, but he has jailed for that.

There are many others who talks sense, but the behaviors of Han people over several of decades made us believe Han people are selfish, untruth-worthy, inconsiderate, so people looking for other ways/alliance for the solution instead of talking “sense” with Han people.
People turn to religion with the fear of the threat of assimilation, as it is the only feasible way to make us stay united, and survived even our economy is destroyed, our language is diminished, our culture is diluted.
Many minorities in China are on the edge of extinction , we do not want to be one of them.
What most Uyghurs want is what is clearly written on the constitution:
Freedom of religion, freedom of using our own language, equal rights …
and true enforcement of the law for autonomous regions.
We believe Xinjiang is our homeland, can accept and live with the condition that it is inalienable part of China but Han people do not care to build trust among Uyghurs as much as once they have used to do when they “liberated” Xinjiang and started to migrate to Xinjiang, and they care lesser with the growing of China power. Most of the benefits we believe that we might get as an autonomous region, repeat, which is shown on the law either not delivered or distorted, those few left just used for show case of “favorable” policy and repeatedly told every day on all media insulting our intelligence while we are struggling for survive.
You cannot expect someone to talk “sense” with you when you repeatedly fail to deliver what you have promised.
How many Han people asked themselves a simple question: why thousands of people participated to the group of “mob” in July 5th, when they clearly knew they might face life sentence or death penalty? because they are desperate!!!

Being German, I have to answer this. It’s not that I hate English, but indeed find it irritating that most Chinese assume we speak English in Germany. Just as if there were only two languages, Chinese and English, on this planet.

“Since you live in Australia, you must know that “Australians” put Chinese people’s surname behind their given name. This is insensitive because family name is important to Han Chinese and they believe it should be put at the front.”

You really want to indicate that Chinese are all so sensitive when it comes to Western names? They are most definitely not, which is why almost every Westerner in China gets a Chinese name sooner or later – and not always voluntarily.

Meanwhile, Han migration to Xinjiang steadily increases and of course the Uighurs are resentful, Han can speak Chinese and have “guanxi” (connections) so they get most of the good jobs. The Uighurs are left to become beggars and prostitutes in their own land.

So long as these trends continue, with Chinese dehumanizing the Uighur and diluting population, there will be no peace.

Cultural sensitivity in homogeneous China has never really been its strong suit, which is a shame, China could have much better relations with its minorities if it had a less patriarchal approach to relations, but continues to insist that it is right and other cultures are backwards and thus shoot itself right in the foot.

America is wrong when it forces “democracy” on other cultures, China is wrong when it forces “development.” Less force and more genuine dialogue might be better…

This is about a half Chinese half black girl and mother who were publicaly defamed by this “peaceful rising” nation

The innocent daughter was called a “chimpanzee(monkey)” “ni99er” “ugly”. The mother was called a “whore” because she happend to sleep with a black man. So how can you expect the world to believe you when you can’t accept a slight difference in looks?

I’m black American I can never take the Han’s side now. Not after this….

Jesse_Q:

Her mother’s skin is pretty thick.
At the time finding foreigners was indeed a fad, but you still can’t pick blacks!

滢滢:

Kao.

Fucked by a black.

How come a zebra wasn’t born…?

黑丫子:

Ugh. Yellow people and black people mixed together is very gross…only black skin, not yellow skin, chocolate skin…

Not even knowing this common knowledge, ruining a child’s life…..

And it goes on and on….This is from the “victims” of racism by the foreign media?

Now you tell me as a black person whose side should I be on?

are you kidding me? Han were 10% of population back in 1949.

It is perfectly understandable that some Australians to hate Chinese immigration, even though they are only about 3% or whatever. American policy against native Americans are also excusable, since the natives ended up better. And even though America still aren’t granting all that self-determination to native Americans/Hawaiians which they preach to every country about, it’s not a big deal.

“In Urumqi You have this constant flooding of Chinese people migrating”
Please show proof. This is a misconception that keeps getting repeated time after time. The Han population in Urumqi has actually declined slightly since 1980. The same is the case with Han population overall in Xinjiang. Even before 1949 and when CCP took over, Han population is a huge majority in Urumqi. 17% vs 60%, guess which is which. Also, I am sure in an Uighur majority area, Hans are going to get equal treatment for hiring and all that stuff, since Uighurs are such nice, flawless, liberal people.

“It’s the government’s fault in the first place for allowing the Han population to become so dense.”
Do I even need to comment on this? Yep, Han should definitely be prevented from breeding. That’s called human rights, and I am sure everyone supported the 1 child policy, since it prevents “Han population to become so dense”.

Also I don’t see how being a minority should rightfully deserves to be given privilege in having children, even when they takes up a small percentage. China has lots of people. 1% is a big number. It’s not like they are going extinct. Unless you are looking at Chinese people like plants and animals, and you would want biodiversity in your kingdom. Oh, I got your point now.

“Again 95% vs. 1% How can a Uyghur compete academically?”
Legitimately like everyone else. But I am sure Chinese or Asians in general are given special advantageous academically in western countries like America, since they are such a small minority and they couldn’t possibly compete.

“…usually peaceful people…”
Again with the illusion of the noble minority. And no, I don’t think they just decide one day to kill Han, because I believe that the race riots were fanned by a few hot heads or organizers.

As for your last paragraph, while it’s true that Chinese in general need to be last racially ignorant, rest of your paragraph is nonsense. “All of your government is Han”, not true. “the president is Han”, remember that 95%. “all of the richest people in China are Han”, not true. For one obvious example, Kadeer was a billionaire. But I am sure that she is the only rich Uighur that ever existed, since nobody ever heard of another famous rich Uighur. Fall for nationalism? Seeing your race getting targeted for racial hate crime and getting angry is irrational and ignorant and called nationalism now?

“MONEY IS NOT EVERYTHING.” Yes it is to most people, including your beloved noble minorities that are untainted by modernization and capitalism. In Lhasa and Urumqi, a lot of the anger is because of unequal economical development between ethnicity, isn’t it? Please drop that stupid fictional image of “noble savages”.

Everybody is saying that Han provoked Uighur’s with their racist hate, even when the evidence clearly shows that it is the Uighur who hates Han to the point of mass murder (if you don’t believe that the sudden burst of Uighur’s racist anger are fanned by Turkenstan independence movement).

I agree there is definitely a lot of han chauvinism, but people are being so one-sided. Why haven’t anyone considered that Uighur Xenophobia is also a factor? Again, it seems like most westerners must have already aligned the Han ethnicity with CCP government on the axis of evil already, and no matter the circumstances, it is always the Hans who are at fault.

then start not to live in a racism-world.

The demonstrators’ (or mob, depending on how you define them) frustration with the Chinese government does not justify their retaliation on Han civilians most of whom are as poorly represented in the state politics as their attackers. Unfortunately, people are often blinded by their anger and make poor choices.
