Now is the time for Coventry to concretely stand up for a fellow woman athlete.

She must use the IOC's reputational leverage over China to ensure #PengShuai can finally fulfil her wish to travel abroad.

IOC President Coventry's social media presence is sprinkled with empowering hashtags such as #Women, #StrongerTogether, #HumanRights, and #ProtectingAthletes.

She has spoken about human rights and sport at high level forums including the UN General Assembly.

Unsurprisingly, Peng has never been able to make good on what the IOC reported was her “intention” to travel to Europe, or take the organisation up on its invitation to visit its Swiss headquarters and Olympic Museum.

Free Tibet reports that the British Museum has changed its exhibition signage to remove all mention of 'Xizang' following a backlash against the Mandarin Chinese term promoted by the CCP to replace 'Tibet' internationally. @freetibet.org www.instagram.com/p/DGdt9Zloekr/

But 'Xizang' remains on US govt. sites and databases as an approved geographic label alongside 'Tibet'.

'Xizang' is also in wide use by seismological data providers internationally.

That means we see social media flooded with 'Xizang' posts when quakes hit Tibet.

Before and after we requested the United States Geological Survey (USGS) replace 'Xizang' with 'Tibet'.
