Syria in Transition
@SyriaTransitionNov 4
Based on dozens of interviews with Syria’s secretive Uyghur community, @EmilyZFeng provides the most comprehensive account to date of those who left their home in Xinjiang, fleeing an oppressive Chinese state, to organise, arm themselves and prepare for an eventual return. It is a compelling read because, for once, Syria’s Uyghurs are doing much of the talking themselves. Beyond this wealth of first-hand accounts, the book leaves crucial questions about access unanswered and says little about the arrangements between the Uyghurs and their long-standing allies in HTS, but it certainly provides the material to start asking them. syriaintransition.com/en/hom…

“Privately, many Uyghurs tell me that despite their initial hopes, they believe they will not see Xinjiang again. For better or worse, many now see their future in Syria.” Emily Feng, author of OUR HEARTS BURNED FOR HOME, in an op-ed for @PostOpinions washingtonpost.com/opinions/…
