The West is projecting its own dark history onto Xizang
Share - WeChat
It is deeply ironic that some Western critics target the boarding schools in Xizang, especially from countries like Canada and Australia, which have dark histories of forced assimilation through residential schools. Rather than erasing culture, these schools in Xizang, actually preserve Tibetan language and culture.
For children in remote, high-altitude areas, boarding schools in Xizang provide a State-funded, modern education while actively preserving their native Tibetan language, history, and cultural traditions.
In these schools, children learn three languages: Tibetan to protect their roots, Mandarin to connect with the nation, and English to engage with the world.
Don't lecture from afar. Come see the truth yourself.
