Cultural Heritage Under Attack: The United Nations and Uyghur China

“Culture isn't just dead stones and statues; culture is life. Culture is, you know, all the ways in which we move and interact together as peoples.” In 2005, the United Nations agreed to a new framework called Responsibility to Protect (R2P) aimed at preventing genocide and crimes against humanity. However, this norm neglected to protect cultural heritage explicitly, despite the fact that the destruction of cultural heritage, including intangible heritage such as traditions and religious practices, often goes hand in hand with ethnic cleansing. This dynamic is playing out today in Xinjiang China, home to the ethnic minority Uyghur people. In this episode, former Getty President Jim Cuno speaks with Simon Adams, president and CEO of the Center for Victims of Torture, and Rachel Harris, expert on Uyghur culture and professor of ethnomusicology at SOAS, University of London, about the role of the UN in protecting cultural heritage in times of crisis and the current case of the Uyghur people in China. Adams and Harris are contributors to the recent publication Cultural Heritage and Mass Atrocities, edited by Jim Cuno and Thomas G. Weiss and available free of charge from Getty Publications.

Entitled People, Place, Race, and Nation in Xinjiang, China: Territories of Identity (Palgrave MacMillan, 2022), David O'Brien and Melissa Shani Brown's new book focuses upon the ways in which ethnic difference is writ through the banalities of everyday life: who one trusts, what one eats, where one shops, even what time one's clocks are set to (Xinjiang being perhaps one of the only places where different ethnic groups live by different time-zones). In this episode, Julie Yu-Wen Chen talk to David O'Brien and Melissa Shani Brown who are both working at Ruhr University Bochum in Germany now. The conversation unpacks how discourses of Chinese nationalism romanticise empire and promote racialised ways of thinking about Chineseness, how cultural assimilation ('Sinicisation') is being justified through the rhetoric of 'modernisation', how Islamic sites and Uyghur culture are being secularised and commodified for tourist consumption. Julie Yu-Wen Chen is Professor of Chinese Studies at the Department of Cultures at the University of Helsinki (Finland). Dr. Chen serves as one of the editors of the Journal of Chinese Political Science (Springer, SSCI).

In der heutigen Spezialepisode haben wir Theo Kaiser zu Gast, um mit ihm über den UN-Menschenrechtsrat zu sprechen. Theo macht aktuell ein Praktikum bei der deutschen Vertretung bei den Vereinten Nationen in Genf. Dort saß er auch als Vertreter Deutschlands regelmäßig in Sitzungen des UN-Menschenrechtsrats. Wir haben Theo eingeladen, um mit ihm über seinen Arbeitsalltag, den Menschenrechtsrat an sich und insbesondere zwei kontroverse Entscheidungen zu Russland und Xinjiang (China) zu sprechen. Im Falle Russlands entschied der Menschenrechtsrat, einen UN-Sonderberichterstatter nach Russland zu entsenden, um die dortige Lage der Menschenrechte zu untersuchen. Diese Entscheidung ist natürlich eine Reaktion auf den von Russland angezettelten Krieg in der Ukraine und dessen neuerliche Entscheidung, Gebiete in der Ostukraine zu annektieren. Eine sogenannte "Draft Decision", die eine Debatte zur Menschenrechtlsage der Uiguren in der chinesischen Provinz Xinjiang durchgesetzt hätte, wurde jedoch mit einer knappen Mehrheit abgelehnt. Hier kannst du die Episode kommentieren. Hier findest du den Text samt Quellen von Romans Beitrag zum Menschenrechtsrat.

Hey everyone!Everyone’s been asking me why Bitcoin crashed $10,000 a couple days ago, seemingly overnight…Honestly, I have no idea, but Willy Woo does! :)Here’s the thread, I would encourage you to read through it if you are interested…Basically it looks like it was a combination of things….1) Giant power outage in Xinjiang China (which was known ahead of time by someone in China with a lot of Bitcoin)2) Someone with 9,000 BTC who knew the power outage was coming, moving his coins to sell…3) The combination of the sell off of those coins, plus the blackout temporarily reduced the Bitcoin hash rate…4) caused massive liquidations in the trading market which sent the price plummeting…That’s a very high level explanation, see the thread for more details.But the REAL question is, does it matter?I hate to break it to you, but later in the year, when Bitcoin is crashing from $200,000 down to $150,000 in one day, this is going to seem like small potatoes….I hate to break it to you again, but this is WHAT BITCOIN DOES…..Price swings like this are what you PAY for in order to get FREEDOM and MASSIVE UPSIDE.What do I mean by this?For instance, let’s take more “traditional” markets, like the stock market, say Apple stock specifically.If Apple stock crashed 20% in a few minutes, likely the rest of the market would do the same.The federal reserve would instantly go into a panic, and wall street would get bailed out, yet again.They would print trillions and trillions and inject the market with liquidity.Bitcoin has no such circuit breakers.The market doesn’t stop trading if the price starts to fall.The market doesn’t even stop trading at 5pm for the end of the “work day”.It is open, free, completely decentralized, and out of anyones control.In order to go from fringe experiment to World Reserve Currency, without the help of these traditional institutions, there are going to be swings, plain and simple.The good news is, these swings, over a longer period of time, have equaled 200% YEAR OVER YEAR RETURNS FOR THE LAST 12 YEARS.It’s the best performing asset of all time.And the good news is, if you know what you’re buying, these price swings affect you exactly ZERO percent.Was I stressed out when my wife was like “what the hell is going on!” at midnight the other night as I watched the price crash?No, I was checking my bank balance seeing if I had any money to buy more at these lower prices.Why is that?Because NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING has changed about the investment case for Bitcoin.World Governments haven’t stopped the money printing binge, and they never will.There’s still only 21 Million Bitcoin.The institutions are still coming and buying in force.There LITERALLY aren’t enough coins to go around (record number of coins being purchased and taken off exchanges, never to be seen again)The past Bitcoin cycles place us at MAYBE halfway through this bull run. Which means we have AT LEAST 2-3x upside from here, THIS YEAR, probably 4-5x.So, yeah, these dips might scare people who are crazy and trading with leverage or who don’t understand what they are actually buying. For me, it’s just an opportunity to scoop up more coins.Remember how it seems “crazy” that anyone could have bought Bitcoin under $10,000?Like, that would have been such an INSANE opportunity, right?That’s EXACTLY how people are going to feel about $60,000 in about 3 months…See you tomorrow if you’re subscribed!Kale Get on the email list at thekaleletter.substack.com

Why isn’t the international left more vocal?9:50 – What is Xinjiang? Who are the Uyghurs? And how has the relationship between Uyghurs and Han (ethnic Chinese) people changed from the 1950s to the present? In recent decades, Xinjiang has become a source for energy resources, the cotton in our clothing, and the tomatoes in our food. We recount the path from “opening up the west” (1990s) to “the people’s war on terror” (2000-10s) to the most recent “reeducation camps.”21:05 – Darren argues that the moralistic paradigm of “cultural difference” and “ethnic genocide” are inadequate. He explains why we need a broader analysis of the social forces producing violence, exploitation, and state repression. Hint: capitalism? Also, how has China appropriated the US’s rhetoric of “war on terror” to racialize the Muslim Uyghurs? Aka “I learned it by watching you, Dad!”Referenced: a new report on Uyghur labor in export-oriented factories in China (Australian Strategic Policy Institute)56:50 – What’s a good leftist to do? Is it okay to back right-wingers who call China morally evil? What are potential avenues for international solidarity (what about the Uyghur diaspora? the Chinese diaspora?)? Also, Darren cites recommended reading on the region and tells us what traps to avoid — and also defends journalists at The New York Times (the ones who wrote this) against Andy’s snobbish dismissal of reportage! Outro: an excerpt from “Uchrashqanda,” by the Uyghur singer and dutar player Abdurehim Heyit, who was imprisoned by the Chinese authorities and has not been heard from since last year.Links:Camp Album project: a multimedia collection by Xinjiang diasporaThe Xinjiang Documentation Project at the University of British ColumbiaFrom the same site, Chinese translations of English publications on XinjiangHistorian David Brophy’s modern account of the region Get on the email list at goodbye.substack.com

In this episode, I talk to the incredible painter, Susanna Coffey about her life and work. We dive into Susanna’s childhood, how she discovered art, the work she did with others during her time in school, feminism, her palette, her love of teaching, and so many other topics. I sincerely mean it when I say, I had such a wonderful time talking to Susanna and I’m positive that you will enjoy this interview.  Susanna Coffey’s portraits are investigations of the iconic human head. The work is driven by questions about what a portrait image can mean. What is a beautiful appearance? Why do conventionally gendered images involve caricature? Can inchoate feeling-states be adequately portrayed? Meticulously observed, most works show her in many guises and locations: under dramatic lighting, highly costumed, inside a studio, within landscapes, foliage, places of fiery devastation, and amidst phantasmagoric patterns. Some portraits seem almost entirely abstract with only the barest suggestion of a human face. Coffey’s artwork has been exhibited in many museums including The Weatherspoon Art Museum, The Aldrich Museum, The Hood Museum, The American Academy of Arts and Letters. Her work is in the collections of The Yale University Art Gallery, The Art Institute of Chicago, The Minneapolis Museum of Art, The National Portrait Gallery, Washington D.C., The Karamay Museum of Art, Xinjiang China and Museum of Contemporary Art, Seville, Spain, among others. Among her awards are The John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship, and the Louis Comfort Tiffany Award. Susanna Coffey lives and works in New York City Susanna Coffey’s work is represented by Steven Harvey Fine Arts Projects in New York City, Alpha Gallery in Boston and Galeria Isabel Ignacio in Seville, Spain.

This week on the Sinica Podcast, Kaiser and Jeremy speak with Christian Shepherd, the Beijing correspondent for the Financial Times. They discuss his debut long-form piece for the FT, Fear and oppression in Xinjiang: China’s war on Uighur culture, dive into the policy drivers behind the assimilation efforts being carried out by the central government in Xinjiang, and discuss his experiences while reporting from the region.What to listen for on this week’s Sinica Podcast:16:22: In an effort to forcefully assimilate Xinjiang into greater China, public signage in Uyghur has been replaced with Mandarin Chinese, and bookstores have been emptied of Uyghur-language texts. Christian noticed the same trend in legal language: “If you look at policy documents now, in Xinjiang and other regions, there has been that shift [to Mandarin]. The use of hanyu [汉语 hànyǔ, Mandarin Chinese] is diminished. Instead, it’s all guoyu [国语 guóyǔ, national language].” The linguistic replacement is also occurring in schools. Christian states: “In fact, in the schooling system, the emphasis is on that national language, instead of [on] the idea of there being multiple languages that were on an equal status.” 34:26: Have there been any legal efforts to change the language within the Chinese constitution regarding minority policy? Christian explains: “I think there’s a real desire on the part of the Party to continue to pay lip service to the idea of being the champion of minority rights. Clearly, that is what is talked about through all government propaganda, and you see it in billboards all over Xinjiang about how Xi Jinping cares about the rights of the individual, [about] minorities, and about fostering ethnic unity and how that will lead to one great big family nationally.” Recommendations:Jeremy: The Planet Money podcast, particularly episode 939, The Working Tapes of Studs Terkel. Christian: Under Red Skies, by Karoline Kan, and the work of Darren Byler, including his column at SupChina and his blog, Living Otherwise.

This week Aria tells Mickey and comedian Sam Bowden about the plight of the Uyghur people who are being held in internment camps in Xinjiang, China. We go back in time to when humans first inhabited the region and look at the border wars and struggles of the ancient people who lived in East Turkestan right up until the region was claimed by China and renamed Xinjiang. Then we find out exactly what the deal with these camps is, how much has been spent on them and what's happening to the people inside. We also find out about the flourishing economy of the petrochemical industry in the area. This episode probably won't be available in China....
