Chippewa Valley Book Festival: "From the Tengri Mountains to the Chippewa Valley" w/ Gulchehra Hoja

Many might think that they are far from supporting the genocide happening in Xinjiang (Chinese-occupied East Turkestan), but will be shocked to find out that even the clothes they wear support those horrors. Author and activist Gulchehra Hoja will provide an insightful look into the struggles of being in exile and reminisce about the beauty of her Uyghur homeland. Learn about Hoja’s personal endeavors – torn between preserving her family’s safety back home and her responsibility to her people.
