World news is hard to watch. It's full of horror and tragedy, much of which is happening thousands and thousands of miles away. While these stories are difficult to consume, they can be easy to ignore as we imagine ourselves untouched by their devastation. But on this episode of The Russell Moore Show, human rights attorney Nury Turkel encourages Christians to understand the ways that they are, in fact, affected by issues like foreign policy and human rights violations across the ocean. Turkel, whose new memoir is titled No Escape: The True Story of China's Genocide of the Uyghurs, serves on the US Commission on International Religious Freedom. Born in a Chinese reeducation camp in the fall of 1970, Turkel is an expert on the plight of the Uyghur people who continue to face tremendous oppression from the Chinese Communist Party, as well as the influence of China on the United States. On this episode, Turkel explains the factors at play in the modern-day genocide of the Uyghur people. He and Moore discuss the ways that America interacts with China, Chinese governmental resistance to Western ideology and religion, and the exploitation of the Uyghur people for products Americans consume. They discuss technology, artificial intelligence, and TikTok developments with serious ethical and mental health implications. And they share urgent, concrete opportunities to stand up against human rights abuses.

"Never again." That was the vow the international community took after the Holocaust, pledging to never repeat the kind of actions that led to the death of over 6 million Jewish people. Unfortunately, the horrors of genocide have been seen again - in Armenia, in Rwanda, and now, in China. On this episode of Audacious, meet a woman who was assaulted and forcibly sterilized while in a concentration camp. And a celebrated writer talks about his new memoir, Waiting to Be Arrested at Night: A Uyghur Poet's Memoir of China's Genocide. GUESTS: Julie Millsap: Government Relations Manager at Uyghur Human Rights Project Omer Kanat: Executive Director of Uyghur Human Rights Project Zumrat Dawut: A Uyghur woman whose experience of escaping Chinese concentration camps was the basis for a story that won the 2022 Pulitzer Prize for Illustrated Reporting.

There, the genocide and enslavement of the Uyghur people are ongoing. The tactics employed are reminiscent of the Cultural Revolution, but the results are far more insidious because of the technology used, most of it stolen from Silicon Valley. In the words of Turkel, “Communist China has created an open prison-like environment through the most intrusive surveillance state that the world has ever known while committing genocide and enslaving the Uyghurs on the world's watch.” As a human rights attorney and Uyghur activist who now serves on the US Commission on International Religious Freedom, Turkel tells his personal story to help explain the urgency and scope of the Uyghur crisis. Born in 1970 in a reeducation camp, he was lucky enough to survive and eventually make his way to the US, where he became the first Uyghur to receive an American law degree. Since then, he has worked as a prominent lawyer, activist, and spokesperson for his people and advocated strong policy responses from the liberal democracies to address atrocity crimes against his people. The Uyghur crisis is turning into the greatest human rights crisis of the twenty-first century, a systematic cleansing of an entire race of people in the millions.

Nury Turkel is a Uyghur American attorney and human rights advocate who was born over 50 years ago inside a Maoist labor camp in China's Xinjiang province. Life for the average Chinese citizen has improved dramatically since then, but not for the ethnic Uyghurs. Nury joined Rep. Crenshaw to describe the wide-scale human rights abuses being committed by the CCP in Xinjiang: slavery, forced marriages, compulsory tracking, censorship, re-education camps, and the erasure of Uyghur culture and religious beliefs. Underlying Nury's story is a clear example of how Marxist ideology inevitably crushes the human spirit and compels people to commit the worst atrocities ever imagined. Nury Turkel is a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute and Chair of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom. He is the author of “No Escape: The True Story of China's Genocide of the Uyghurs.” Follow him on Twitter at @nuryturkel.

The Uyghurs are a Turkic Muslim people who live in a Central Asian land usually called Xinjiang. They have been – and are being – brutally oppressed by China's Communist rulers. There can be no debate about that. Nury Turkel was born in a detention center in Xinjiang. As a young adult, he made his way to America, where he became the first Uyghur to earn a law degree at an American university. Today, he is a prominent human rights attorney, a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute, and he serves as chairman of USCIRF – the U.S. Commission on International Freedom – appointed by Nancy Pelosi. He has also written a memoir and call to action. Its title: No Escape: The True Story of China's Genocide of the Uyghurs. He joins Cliff to discuss his life, his book, and what remains a dire situation in Xinjiang.

In this week's epsidode of Horns of a Dilemma, Sheena Greitens, head of the Asia Policy Program at the University of Texas, Austin, joins author Nury Turkel to discuss Turkel's book, No Escape: The True Story of China's Genocide of the Uyghurs. Turkel, who was born in a re-education camp during China's culturual revolution, uses his own experiences, as well as interviews with survivors of the camps in western China to tell the story of China's campaign against the Uyghur people. The picture that emerges in his conversation with Greitens is urgent, powerful, and chilling. This event was recorded at the University of Texas, Austin, and was co-sponsored by the Clements Center and the Bech-Loughlin First Amendment Center.

Nury Turkel (@nuryturkel) is a human rights attorney for the US Commission on International Religious Freedom and the author of No Escape: The True Story of China's Genocide of the Uyghurs. What We Discuss with Nury Turkel: How the Chinese Communist Party is using artificial intelligence to arbitrarily round up Uyghurs for fabricated crimes — including 17,000 who were arrested within 10 days thanks to assistance from an algorithm. Some of the 48 behaviors that will get Uyghurs flagged as dissidents in Xinjiang and sent to concentration camps for "re-education" are as mundane as growing a beard or adhering to a halal diet. Why the CCP is trying so hard to wipe out an entire culture that has had its roots in the Xinjiang region since at least the third century AD. Uyghur families attempting to start new lives in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and other countries have been deported back to China to face punishment and possibly death. How Uyghur slave labor is used to supply markets around the world — especially in the United States — and what we can do to avoid supporting companies that knowingly participate in this shameful, immoral arrangement.

In recent years China has been accused of committing crimes against humanity and possibly genocide against the Uyghur ethnic group in the northwestern region of Xinjiang province. Nury Turkel was born in a re-education camp in Kashgar, Xinjiang in 1970. In 1995 he had the opportunity to leave China as a student and was never to return to his home and family. Nury has since dedicated his life to fighting for the rights of Uyghurs – he is Chair of the US Commission on International Religious Freedom and Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute, specialising in national security and foreign policy. His new book is No Escape: The True Story of China's Genocide of the Uyghurs. Turkel is joined in conversation by our host for this discussion, Yasmeen Serhan, staff writer at The Atlantic, where she focuses on populism and nationalism. Learn more about your ad choices.

Nury Turkel was born in a Chinese re-education camp in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, managing to flee China in 1995 to attend university in the United States. Becoming the first Uyghur to receive an American law degree, Nury Turkel went on to become a human rights attorney and activist for Uyghur people. In recent years, China's repression of Uyghur Muslims has intensified, most visibly through the construction of a series of re-education centres in Xinjiang. This was further exposed last week, when a cache of hacked data and photographs from police computers, now called the Xinjiang Police Files, were published online. It revealed in unprecedented detail, China's brutal use of re-education camps and prisons as a system of mass detention for Uyghurs. It's estimated between one and two million Uyghurs are detained in the Xinjiang facilities. The documents also uncovered a "shoot to kill" policy for those who try to escape. Nury Turkel is a co-founder and chair of the Uyghur Human Rights Project, a commissioner for the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom, and a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute. He's just published No Escape: The True Story of China's Genocide of the Uyghurs. He tells Kathryn how the unfolding Uyghur crisis is turning into the greatest human rights crisis of the twenty-first century.
In this episode we sat down with Nury Turkel, a Uyghur lawyer who is currently Vice Chair of the US Commission on International Religious Freedom and Chairman of the Board of the Uyghur Human Rights Project. During the episode, Nury discusses how his personal experience with China's long-standing persecution of the Uyghurs has shaped his work. He details the Chinese government's systematic campaign of genocide against the Uyghurs and calls on the international community to be more outspoken against China's atrocities, as highlighted in his new book entitled "No Escape: The True Story of China's Genocide of the Uyghurs."

Nury Turkel, author of No Escape: The True Story of China's Genocide of the Uyghurs, speaks to us today about China's use of technology in the Uyghur genocide and the threat of such technologies to global democracy and freedom. Turkel highlights what the international community needs to do to support the Uyghur people and hold authoritarians to account. Turkel is a Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute and is Vice Chair of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom. He is the first U.S.-educated Uyghur-American lawyer, foreign policy expert, and human rights advocate. He was born in a re-education camp at the height of China's tumultuous Cultural Revolution and spent the first several months of his life in detention with his mother.
“They think all the sexual violence that they're subjecting Uyghur women to—this mysterious drug that they're giving, forced sterilization, collective punishment through gang rape—are the methods [through which] they are liberating Uyghur women. I mean, just let that sink in.” I sit down with Uyghur-American human rights advocate Nury Turkel, vice-chair of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom and senior fellow at the Hudson Institute. Nury Turkel was born in a Chinese re-education camp. His new book, “No Escape: The True Story of China's Genocide of the Uyghurs,” is a chilling look into China's techno-autocracy, and what can result when a communist regime is allowed to run unchecked for decades.

On today's Breitbart News Daily podcast, we begin with a breakdown of Pres. Trump's first failed endorsement of the year, the Republican governor primary in Nebraska. Then, we get into a big speech from Pres. Biden where he blamed pretty much everyone but himself for inflation. He also coined a new term: "Ultra MAGA." What does it mean? No one really knows, but that won't stop him from repeating it over and over. He also provides no solutions to our economic crisis. Plus, Dr. Mehmet Oz cut an odd video of him shooting guns, poorly. It's a good thing that a guy who at one point supported red flag laws is pandering to gun rights supporters, but we're not sure the video makes sense in the current moment of authenticity, but we shall see. Also, Elon Musk invited Pres. Trump back to Twitter, which is a strong power move because Trump has already said he won't go back on the platform. And then, the White House is supporting illegal protests at Supreme Court Justices' homes. All that and more in the opening. Our guest today is Nury Turkel, Vice Chair of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom and author of “No Escape: The True Story of China's Genocide of the Uyghurs.” He delves into Uyghur culture and why China has singled out this particular group for genocide. Then, we get into what America can do to help these people who are being eliminated right now. His answers are both enlightening and horrifying. And finally, we have our caller of the day.
