Quotes by Darren Byler (?)

“Chinese authorities have placed as many as 1.5 million Uyghurs, Kazakhs, and Hui into a system of medium- to maximum-security “reeducation” camps since 2017—making it the largest internment of a religious minority since World War II.”
― Darren Byler, In the Camps: Life in China's High-Tech Penal Colony

“An internal police report noted that visiting a mosque “more than two hundred times” would result in a Muslim being sent “for education” in the camps. In the mosque featured in the report, this threat—along with a face-scan checkpoint at the entrance of the mosque—had precipitated a 96 percent drop in attendance in a single year.”
― Darren Byler, In the Camps: Life in China's High-Tech Penal Colony

“Turkic Muslims understand that in a time of reeducation they are subject to the gaze of the system. Anyone can be an informant; no one is a guaranteed ally; and the algorithms of cameras and scanners are always on. In this context, for ethnoracial minorities, there appears to be no space that is fully outside state power.”
