Internationalists & socialists owe our solidarity and support to the struggle for democracy in Hong Kong and of the Uyghurs in Western China
About this event
Internationalists, democrats and socialists owe our solidarity and support to the Uyghur Muslims of western China, who are being targeted by the Beijing government with mass internment, abuse, torture and denial of their rights.
We must also support the workers’ movement in Hong Kong, which is fighting off a draconian security law and facing increasingly stiff repression.
But at the same time, the Labour Party and the left should resist boosting the US government’s anti-Chinese “new Cold War” rhetoric. We have to be independent – but how?
Momentum Internationalists are organising this forum to discuss Labour, the left and our attitude to social struggles in China.
Speakers: Promise Li, Tahmena Joyan, Nabila Ahmed and Pete Radcliff, John McDonnell MP
