‘This is real’: Holocaust survivor shares story on Clubhouse to help combat hate
“Also joining Steigmann in one of his rooms was Tahir Imin Uighurian, a political science scholar and Uyghur activist who has said he was jailed by the Chinese government for political reasons and whose family has faced retaliation from Beijing. He met Steigmann at a United Nations event last summer and said he was happy to see his name pop up in Clubhouse.
“I just shared my story about the Uyghur issue,” he said. “I need to remind people that if you really want to remember and care about human rights and stop genocide, the Holocaust was in the past and now it’s happening to the Uyghur people, as recognized by the U.S., Canada, and the Netherlands.”
Beijing has repeatedly denied any mistreatment of its Uyghur minority.”
