Sample Book Insights:
#1 I have lived in Washington, DC, as a free Uyghur for more than twenty years. I have not seen my mother since 2004. I have been able to spend only eleven months with my parents since I left China twenty-seven years ago.
#2 I was born in 1970 in a Communist labor camp in Kashgar, China. My mother was imprisoned for having relatives in a hostile country, and I was malnourished because my mother was malnourished. Between the tiny cracks in the boarded-up window, my mother could just steal glimpses of Kashgar, a city that was already a trading post on the Silk Road two thousand years ago.
#3 My father came from the town of Ghulja in the north, near the border with Kazakhstan, a more European part of the country. He was the son of a famous Uyghur dancer, and he had been brought by authorities to Kashgar as part of a move to integrate Uyghur intellectuals from the north into the ancient city of Kashgar.
#4 I was a studious kid. I read a lot, and I played soccer and ran in my spare time. I didn’t want to join the Chinese elite, and I wanted to be free and live with respect and dignity.
