We advocate for an end to the Chinese government's genocide of the Uyghur population of East Turkistan (a.k.a. Xinjiang).

In these troubled times we live in, many members of our group are involved with #activism for multiple causes. However, we still make the time to #protest each month outside the #Chinese #embassy in #WashingtonDC, calling for an end to the Chinese government's #genocide of its #Uyghur population.

At our most recent protest outside the #Chinese embassy in #WashingtonDC, we learned about forced labor in the #mining industry. #Xinjiang is a source of #titanium, #lithium, #beryllium, and #magnesium. Learn more at

Our April 2025 protest took place on Yom HaShoah, a day when people who died during the #Holocaust are remembered. We said "Never again!" to #genocide as we protested the Chinese government's genocide of its #Uyghur population.

Our protests outside the Chinese embassy in #WashingtonDC attract a variety of people, including this handsome young man. We appreciate his commitment to protesting against the Chinese government's ongoing #genocide of the Uyghurs in East Turkistan (a.k.a. #Xinjiang).

A third Uyghur we read about at our protest was Kamile Wayit, who in 2024 became one of 40 people listed by the European Parliament as unjustly imprisoned in China. She was sentenced for "advocating extremism" after sharing a video of a protest.

In January, we once again protested outside the Chinese embassy in #WashingtonDC, demanding an end to the Chinese government's #genocide of the #Uyghur population of #Xinjiang. During our protest, we read about four imprisoned Uyghurs, and read two poems by Uyghurs.

We recently held our last #protest of the Jewish year 5784. At the protest, we learned about Uyghurs who have been imprisoned by the Chinese government or experienced the disappearance of family members.

We will continue our protests in the year 5785.

We recently held our 41st monthly #protest outside the Chinese embassy in #WashingtonDC. During the protest, we learned about the horrors the Chinese government has inflicted on the families of #Uyghur activists. One Uyghur, Abduweli Ayup, has had at least 11 relatives by blood or marriage detained.
