Tibetan sources who spoke to Radio Free Asia linked the closures to the Chinese government’s education policies and its promotion of the Ethnic Unity and Progress Law, which took effect on July 1, 2026. They said the shutdowns could further limit opportunities for Tibetan children to learn their mother tongue and cultural traditions.

    You know that annexation happened almost 70 years ago right?

    Indigenous lands in north america were taken hundreds of years ago

    a region that had 97% illiteracy rate and is now 28% remained the same

    Literacy rates improved vastly for indigenous people in the Americas. Does that make that colonialism acceptable to you?
