"As one of the Uyghurs who escaped from the Chinese genocide against Uyghurs, today I feel myself as one of those Jewish people who experienced the journey of Exodus,” Tahir Imin, Editor-in-Chief @ Uyghur Times and Advisor to Jewish Movement for Uyghur Freedom.

We are taught that, “In every generation each of us is obliged to regard ourself as if we ourselves went forth from the land of Egypt”(Exodus 13:8).  Now as we observe Passover this year, let us stand in solidarity with the Uyghur people who are experiencing persecution and slavery today. 

Our friends at Uyghur Human Rights Project are providing direct legal and humanitarian aid to Uyghur survivors. Please consider contributing to this important cause, and sharing in your circles.

Additionally, Jewish Movement for Uyghur Freedom members have created a variety of resources to highlight Uyghur freedom during Passover 5781/2021, that can be accessed here: https://jewishmovementforuyghurfreedom.org/passover-haggadah

We have made the materials accessible to all. For those so compelled to compensate our work and directly support Uyghurs today, we recommend a donation of any sum to made to Uyghur Human Rights Project. Suggested donation: $36.
