The ongoing protests against racial injustice in the United States have also triggered a heated debate on the Chinese internet. For this episode, we called up Isabelle Niu, an award-winning journalist who has covered China and its interactions with the world extensively, to talk about her experiences and observations about the racism and Black Lives Matter dialogues that have been taking place on the Chinese internet. In an eye-opening conversation, Isabelle discusses communicating with her family back in China about the protests and the Black Lives Matter movement. She shares her reporting experiences in China and Africa as well as the various resources we can tap into to challenge our biases and educate ourselves on the roots and history of racism.
