PRESENTATION OF THE BOOK “TIBET WAS NEVER PART OF CHINA” CHILD THUBTEN WANGCHEN

8 June | 19:00

Thubten Wangchen presents the Spanish and Catalan translation of the book Tibet was never part of China. This report, published by the Tibetan administration in exile, review the history of Tibet to the present day. The Chinese invasion of 1959 It wasn't a liberation., How the Chinese government defends, but a colonization carried out with blood and fire. Sadly, the absence of human rights in the region persists.

 

From the prologue:
“For the Tibetans, information is a very precious commodity. Severe restrictions on free expression, Accompanied by an incessant misinformation campaign, facts and knowledge become invaluable.. But, no matter how much the Chinese government tries to cloud the world's view of Tibet, as long as Tibetans and their supporters continue to publish and disseminate information that reveals the truth of what is happening in the region, the fight for Tibetan rights will continue”

 

As Penpa Tsering says, Tibetan president in exile: “we do not ask for independence, but genuine autonomy with democratic guarantees and free expression, movement and assembly. Our voice is on the side of truth and justice”

 

A pica-pica will be offered at the end of the event and a copy of the book will be donated to all attendees.
