#Ep22 Unsilenced: Voices of Young Tibetans - Tenzin Yangzom la in conversation with Tenzing Dhamdul

  • Summary

  • Unsilenced: Voices of Young Tibetans is a podcast series where we have conversations with young Tibetans who will offer an interesting view of their lives in exile and their future aspiration for Tibet and provide them with a platform to express themselves. The podcast is also a tribute to all those brave Tibetans in Tibet who were silenced both physically and mentally by the Chinese occupiers.

    In this episode, we engage with Tenzin Yangzom, she is the Campaigns Coordinator at the International Tibet Network (ITN) and previously she was also the Grassroots Director at Students for a Free Tibet (SFT). She is among the youth deeply involved in the Tibetan Freedom Movement and played a pivotal role in the shutting down of Confucius Institute at Tufts University.

    In the podcast, Tenzin Yangzom shares her experiences and journey with the Tibetan Freedom Movement. She explains how her family had a significant influence in her involvement with the movement with their constant support being the foundation of here. She discusses about the International Tibet Network (ITN), the story behind its genesis and the plethora of direct actions and campaigns she has been involved in. The most recent being the displaying of 'Free Tibet' banner on the bridge where Chinese president Xi Jinping motorcade had to pass through. She shares her engagement with Tibetans who had visited Tibet recently and concludes by telling us that the world's perspective on China is changing.
