中国人权-Human Rights in ChinaThe fate of Yashar Shohret, a Uyghur rapper and songwriter known by his stage name ‘Uigga,’ is emblematic of the ongoing persecution of the Uyghur people under the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). A gifted young artist whose ‘crime’ was to preserve his native language through music, Yashar's life has been derailed by the CCP’s campaign of surveillance and oppression. Yashar’s detention following the White Paper Protests—a nationwide outcry sparked by the tragic fire in Urumqi in November 2022—reflects the regime’s broader campaign to erase Uyghur cultural identity and crush resistance. <br> <br> The Urumqi fire of November 24, 2022 tragically claimed the lives of 10 people who were trapped in a locked-down residential building, including a Uyghur mother and her four children. This tragedy symbolised the inhumanity of Xi Jinping’s zero-COVID policy, which prioritized enforcement of control over human wellbeing and safety. The protests that followed were unprecedented, uniting Han Chinese and Uyghurs in their shared grief and demand for change. White Paper Protest participants – holding blank sheets of paper to signify their inability to express themselves under the CCP – faced swift retaliation. As a Uyghur who openly mourned his compatriots and challenged cultural erasure through his music, Yashar was targeted twice—first in Chengdu in 2022 and again in 2023—under spurious charges of promoting extremism.<br> <br> Yashar’s case exemplifies how the CCP weaponizes surveillance, censorship and fabricated legal charges to oppress Uyghurs - a campaign marked by mass detentions, cultural assimilation, and the criminalization of religious and linguistic identity. The suffering of this young musician sheds light on the CCP’s systematic and calculated assault on Uyghur identity. Continued attention from the international community is vital. Please share Yashar's plight with your contacts, and do what you can to keep this issue a topic of discussion amongst your politicians. International solidarity is needed to safeguard human rights in China. <br> <br> Read the full story on HRIC’s substack:<br> https://t.co/zmCf3Gxu8q<br> <br> #china #humanrights #humanrightsinChina #youcanhelp #Stand4Uyghurs #Uyghur #中國 #人權
