The Uyghur Suffer Genocide as the World Watches the Olympics
China is under intense global scrutiny for its treatment of the Muslim Uyghur population, actions the U.S. State Department labels a genocide. For human rights attorney and Uyghur advocate Rayhan Asat, China’s abuses are personal. She says her brother was forcibly disappeared by the government and subjected to indefinite solitary confinement. She joins Hari Sreenivasan to share his story.
