Join Hudson Senior Fellow Nury Turkel for a discussion with Axios China reporter Bethany Allen-Ebrahimian on his memoir “No Escape,” a personal account of the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) genocide of the Uyghur people. Interweaving analysis of how the CCP has weaponized digital surveillance to introduce a new era of totalitarianism in China with his experience as a Uyghur born in a re-education camp, Turkel offers an unflinching look at the horrific crimes of the Chinese regime, and policy prescriptions to confront these evils.
