Film Screening: All Static and Noise

The Carolina Asia Center and the Chinese Program of the Department of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies will host a screening of the documentary film All Static and Noise.

Testimony and action from survivors of China’s network of “re-education camps” and their families, in Turkey, Kazakhstan, Europe and the United States, infuse All Static & Noise with an urgency that exposes the mass brutality of state-sponsored oppression in Western China. Together these voices highlight the moral dilemma between risking the safety of families back home by speaking out and the necessity of exposing atrocities in the hope that global awareness will bring change. With each voice we are brought closer to one of the most egregious human rights disasters of our moment. All Static & Noise honors those willing to speak out and poses difficult questions that are imperatives in our inter-connected global economy of the 21st century.

This screening will be held in the Nelson Mandela Auditorium of the FedEx Global Education Center, accompanied by a Q&A with creators of the film. This event is free and open to the public.
