Disney Thanks Chinese Communist Party's Secret Agency Despite Their Brutal Crackdown on Uyghurs
After its lead actress' pro-police violence statement, Disney's new film Mulan was found acknowledging the Chinese Communist Party's security agency and entities in Xinjiang.
It was suggested that Disney may have sent its crew to Xinjiang in 2017, despite the Chinese government's increasing crackdown on Ugyhurs.
It is estimated that the Chinese government has imprisoned over 1 milliion uyghurs and other Muslim minorities in concentration camps for "reform", forcing them to give up their original languages, habits, cultures and religion.
The 8 entities acknowledged by Disney in Mulan's credits included the police bureau in Turpan, a city with large Uyghur population that has been subjected to mass surveillance and control by the CCP.

Beyond Authenticity: the Spectre of Han Hegemony
//It is hard not to see the Emperor’s protectiveness of the Silk Road in #Mulan as an echo of China’s Belt and Road scheme, often termed a New Silk Road to build their economic prosperity. The violence of Islamic-coded barbarians echoes modern Chinese propaganda about Islamic terrorism in #Xinjiang, which is being used to justify the existence of concentration camps.
//Modern China is built on the idea that the Han people should be and are the inheritors of the Qing empire. These colonial possessions, like Tibet, East Turkestan (aka Xinjiang) and Southern Mongolia, are argued to share with the Han people a “common historical destiny” (Chiang Kai-shek, 1947). Other empires may have attempted (however ineptly and inadequately) some form of de-colonisation in the 20th Century, but China’s successive regimes very much did not.
//The cultural genocide happening in Xinjiang today is part of a larger project by the Chinese government to force assimilation and cultural “harmony” across their empire. It can be seen the policies mandating the use Mandarin in schools, a policy that has sparked protests in Southern Mongolia.
