Human rights advocate and Executive Director of Campaign for Uyghurs Rushan Abbas will officially launch her memoir, Unbroken: One Uyghur’s Fight for Freedom, at Hudson with Olivia Enos and other experts.
In this book, Abbas shares her story of growing up in Xinjiang and becoming one of the most prominent voices speaking out against atrocities committed by the Chinese Communist Party against the Uyghur people. Unbroken is a story of identity, personal loss, resistance, and resilience in the face of injustice.
Join Hudson for a discussion of the book and the ways the United States and other countries can support the Uyghur people in their time of need.
Lunch will be served.
