我在写一封公开信，一点点写一点点贴，大家群策群力

To the United Nations Human Rights Council:

We are calling on the council for an urgent investigation into the human trafficking, sex enslaving, and a heinous human rights violation case in Xuzhou, China. A woman, who is believed to be Ying Li, was a victim of human trafficking since 12, and has been a sex slave of a man who not only raped her but also had 8 children with her. She is seen in the picture locked up with a dog chain, covered with a thin coat in winter in a scruffy hut. The horrid fact is, Ying is not the only sex slave in the village. Evidence shows that there are at least several other women in the same if not worse situation.

赞行动力！一点点小建议，关于受害者的identity，应该还没有百分百证实，就这么言之凿凿是不是会不够严谨？

的确有点纠结，所以尽量选了 believed to be等词，等后面再放证据。关键是现在也不让做DNA，没有最有力的结论，没法直接指责，但是不指责又没法施加压力让破案，那个circle要想办法打破。

Around Jan 29, an internet post raised the attention of the public. A man, Zhimin Dong, is showing off his 8 kids and government subsidy he received on TikTok. People noticed that in the background, there''''s a woman chained up in a squalid space, a hut with no isolation. Dong claimed his wife,, the woman in the picture, is mentally sick. The incident soon raised internet rage. Is it legal to chain up any individual in captivity? Was she mentally unwell before they were married, in which case the woman can be considered as unconsensual? And most importantly, was she abducted?

Two days later, the local government issued a statement saying that Yang (the woman) was a local villager with mental disease, and that she was married to Dong in 1999. There was no abduction and she is locked up to keep people safe.

Soon, a grassroot volunteer organization discovered that a girl who was abducted on the way to school and claimed missing has undeniably identical features to Yang. The girl Ying was taken in 1997, and is believed to be a human trafficking victim. Her family is still looking for her. With the look, the year missing, and all other details match, it is widely believed that Yang is indeed Ying.

People who are related to the area or who have obtained information about the village stepped out with more information. The girl was "bought" by Dong''''s family from the traffickers, and used by the father and 2 sons sexually, one of which is Dong. Some local officials participated in raping as well. Ying was obstinate and never fawned at the rapists. She fought back with teeth and kicks. In order to make her more "obedient", Dong knocked off her teeth. One person also said that Ying was drugged to mute her voice.

The local government then issued another statement, saying they have compared with the DNA pool and Yang is not a registered missing person.

4

By then, Ying''s mother has requested a DNA comparison with Yang, which is never granted. Yang is kept in a place no outsiders can approach to get a sample.

More truth swarmed in, inundating the gasping public. Villages around Xuzhou have a history of being one of the destinations of human trafficking. In the 80s, there were 40,000 human trafficking victims bought by the villagers as sex slaves. A rough calculation shows, today there are around 20,000 sex slaves in those villages. Human trafficking in Xuzhou has an industrial complex behind it. Unmarried guys can pay around 6,000 Yuan to get a girl. The local government then created a new ID for the girl, and too marriage licenses. The new household then can claim government subsidy. Of course, sex slaves do fight back. They will get beaten up, drugged, or inhumanely tortured as a result. There''s another woman "living" next to Yang''s, is crawling on the ground in a more grubby hut. Her knees were knocked to pieces from an attempted run-away. Another one is hung to get beaten every other day. Some of them went insane in the living hell. About half of the rescued sex slaves are diagnosed of having mental illness.

Another question also emerged among all. There''s a ten-year gap between Yang''s 1st son and 2nd son. Yang has 7 boys and 1 girl. The chance of getting such probability is thin. People suppose Yang has/had other kids. They could be girls. But no one could get a chance to talk to Yang.

The village is sealed.

It is palpable by now that the Xuzhou local government has served as a shield in the human trafficking business. On the provincial level, neither Ying''''s birth place nor Xuzhou''''s governing province has uttered a sound despite the fusing lambasting from the public.

On Feb 7, the central government semi-officially stated that Yang has been identified. She is a woman of 52, from Yunnan Province, who was taken to treat her mental disease 20 years ago and got missing. She has no living relatives.

The public is giving backlash. Apparently, the numbers don''t add up. There''s no photographic or witness evidence either.

Till then, Ying''s mother''s DNA request is still not granted.

6

To date, Yang is segregated and confined to a mental institution, no volunteer or social worker allowed to visit. The truth is prevented to be found out by the state apparatus.

According to all the information gleaned so far, Yang is not simply a psychotic woman who is not treated properly. There's much more behind it. The whole occurrence is not only a human rights violation case, but a consortium of crimes on multiple levels and with horrendous magnitudes. Yang was abducted, human trafficked, raped, sexually abused and assaulted, used as a reproductive machine, manhandled, and much more.

Let's ask a few questions:

• Why isn't a DNA comparison approved?
• Why can't Ying's mother meet Yang to find out what she remembers?
• Why isn't the local government answering on what base did they issued the press releases that are contradicting each other?
• How many more women like Yang are there in the same village? Same city? Same province?
• What is being done to help them?

In so, we urgently request that the counsel send out an independent investigation panel to evaluate the situation. With human trafficking as a protected business, women in China as a collective group is facing danger. The state apparatus is failing us.

We feel for Yang. Any human being's heart would pain at such hideous crime. She is our daughter, sister, cousin... She was us. Remember, she, a sweet teenage girl much loved and cared for, was on her way to school one day, suddenly blacked out, and woke up in a living hell, with no one is there to help. It could happen to anyone if we can't find out the truth.

We want the truth. We need the truth.

Soon, a grassroot volunteer organization discovered that a girl who was abducted on the way to school and claimed missing has undeniably identical features to Xia. The girl named Ying Li was taken in 1996 at the age of 12, and is believed to be a human trafficking victim. Her family is still looking for her. With the look, the year missing, and all other details match, it is widely believed that Xia is Ying.

In the 80s, during the year 1986 to 1989, there were 40,000 human trafficking victims bought by the villagers as sex slaves. A rough calculation shows, today there are around 20,000 sex slaves in those villages. Human trafficking in Xuzhou has an industrial complex behind it. Unmarried guys can pay around 3,000 to 6,000 Yuan (around $500 to $1,000) to get a girl. The local government then created a new ID for the girl, and too marriage licenses. The new household then can claim government subsidy. Of course, sex slaves do fight back. They will get beaten up, drugged, or inhumanely tortured as a result. There''s another woman "living" next to Xia''s, is crawling on the ground in a more grubby hut. Her knees were knocked to pieces from an attempted run-away.

Another question also emerged among all. There''s a ten-year gap between Xia''s 1st son and 2nd son. Xia has 7 boys and 1 girl, youngest 1 year old. The chance of getting such biological probability is thin. People suppose Xia has/had other kids. They could be girls that were "dealt with", following the prevailing gender discrimination across rural areas in China, the same discrimination causing the gender disproportion in China leaving men out number women by 30 million in rural areas, as girls are aborted, drowned after birth, or abandoned during infancy. The surplus group serves as a terminal consumer group of the human trafficking business. But no one could get a chance to talk to Xia. The village is sealed.

It is palpable by now that the Xuzhou local government has served as a shield in the human trafficking business. On the provincial level, neither Ying''''s birth place nor Xuzhou''''s governing province has uttered a sound despite the fuming lambasting from the public.

Till then, Ying''s mother''s DNA request is still not granted.

To date, Xia is segregated and confined to a mental institution guarded by armed police force for "national security reasons", no volunteer or social worker allowed to visit. The truth is prevented to be found out by the state apparatus.

According to all the information gleaned so far, Xia is not simply a psychotic woman who is not treated properly. The whole occurrence is not only a human rights violation case, but a consortium of crimes on multiple levels with unfathomable magnitudes. Xia was abducted, human trafficked, raped, sexually abused and assaulted, used as a reproductive machine, manhandled, and much more. She was a prey of the human traffickers, her purchaser family of 3 males, local authorities who participated in raping and giving green light to the business chain, higher up government who makes up a story to deny her identity, and the state government that blocks public opinions.

We want to ask a few questions:

- Why isn''t a DNA comparison approved?

- Why isn''t Xia permitted to talk to anyone outsider?

- Why isn''t the local government answering on what base did they issued the press releases that are contradicting each other?

- How many more women like Xia are there in the same village? Same city? Same province?

We are seeking help from the international community to save this woman of a human trafficking, sex enslaving, and heinous human rights violation case, out of Xuzhou, China. A woman, who is believed to be Li Ying, was a victim of human trafficking since 12, and has been a sex slave of a man who not only raped her but also had 8 children with her. She is seen in a picture locked up with an industrial chain, covered with a thin layer in winter in a scruffy hut. The horrid fact is, Ying is not the only trafficked sex slave in the village. Evidence shows that there are at least several other women in the same if not worse situation.

Around Jan 29, an internet post drew the attention of the public. A man, Dong Zhimin, is showing off his 8 kids and government subsidy he received on Tik-Tok.

In so, we urge the international community to help us volume up. We feel for Xia. Any human being's heart would pain at such hideous crime. She is our daughter, sister, cousin... She was us. Remember, she, a sweet teenage girl much loved and cared for, was on her way to school one day, suddenly blacked out, and woke up in a living hell, with no one there to help. The state apparatus is used to protect perpetrators. The system is failing her.

We invite you to join us, to ask for truth, to ask for justice, and to demand that the Xuzhou government give Li Ying's freedom and life back.

辛苦了 给你点赞👍 大家能不能讨论一下都能发去哪里？如果有link的能不能发一下？ Reddit目前有帖子吗？有的话发一下link大家去加一下热度

bananamm 发表于 2022-02-09 16:45

对，有个帖子大家一起顶贴比较好。我晚点时候收集人权组织、activists和救援组织在各社交平台的帐号，大家可以@起来

另外还有个建议就是做一批带对比照片的T恤或口罩，有#的，出去绝对有影响力。同时可以在Amazon上面卖，一方面方便大家不用自己去印，另外一方面任何收入都可以捐给Li Ying或骄傲女孩。别说肖像权，连ID都没确定，哪里谈得上肖像权，请问大儿子用哪个名字去打官司？

给MM点赞！👍

social media我不懂，有个建议你看看合不合用：哪位会写网页的MM做个详尽来龙去脉的网页，在上面随时更新国内国际的情况反响、联系方式等等具体信息，然后把这个网页生成QR code，游行或者其他活动的时候每个人都能打印出来带着或者贴在标语牌上，方便路人和媒体扫码了解详情，也能附在社交网络的post后面让大家跟进进展。

很好的主意，有人做网页的话，我可以帮忙采集内容

MM考虑的很周到，如果有新的手绘，我也印一个T恤

Human trafficking victim, sex salve, mother of 8, needs to be freed from shackle

感谢MM发起petition，发一个link，大家一起签

这个版本可以发给国际人道主义组织，其中有些有underground救援行动。发email的时候只要把To后面和第一段的xxx换成组织名称就行。组织名单在最下面，越多人发送email越好。（list会不停更新）

To xxx：

We are calling on the xxx for an urgent investigation into the abduction, human trafficking, sex enslaving, and a heinous human rights violation case in Xuzhou, China. A woman, who is believed to be Ying Li, was a victim of human trafficking since 12, and has been a sex slave of a man who not only raped her but also had 8 children with her. She is seen in the picture locked up with an industrial chain, covered with a thin layer in winter in a scruffy hut. The horrid fact is, Ying is not the only trafficked sex slave in the village. Evidence shows that there are at least several other women in the same if not worse situation.

Around Jan 29, an internet post drew the attention of the public. A man, Dong, Zhimin, is showing off his 8 kids and government subsidy he received on Tik-Tok. People noticed that in the background, there''''s a woman shackled in a squalid place, a hut with no isolation in winter. Dong claimed his wife, the woman in the picture, is mentally sick. The incident soon raised internet outrage. Is it legal to chain up any individual in captivity? Was she mentally unwell before they were married, in which case the woman can be considered as nonconsensual? And most importantly, how did she end up there?

Two days later, the local government issued a statement saying that Yang, X Xia (the woman) was a local villager with mental disease, who was married to Dong in 1998. "There was no abduction and she is locked up to keep people safe." said the statement.

Soon, a grassroot volunteer organization discovered that a girl who was abducted on the way to school and claimed missing has undeniably identical features to Xia. The girl named Li, Ying was taken in 1996 at the age of 12, and is believed to be a human trafficking victim. Her family is still looking for her. With the look, the year missing, and all other details match, it is widely believed that Xia is Ying.

People who are related to the area or who have obtained information about the village stepped out with more information. The girl was "purchased" by Dong''''s family from the traffickers, and used by the father and 2 sons sexually, one of which is Dong Zhimin. Some local officials participated in the raping as well. Xia, obstinate and valorous, fought back with teeth and kicks. In order to make her more "obedient", Dong knocked off her teeth and nipped off the tip of her tongue. One person also said that Xia was drugged to lose her voice.

The local government then issued another statement, saying they have compared with the DNA pool and Xia is not a registered missing person.

By then, Ying''''s mother has requested a DNA comparison with Xia, which is never granted. Xia is kept in a place no outsiders can approach to get a sample.

More truth swarmed in, stupefying the already gasping public. Villages around Xuzhou have a history of being one of the destinations of human trafficking. In the 80s, during the year 1986 to 1989, there were over 48,000 human trafficking victims bought by the villagers as sex slaves. A rough calculation shows, today there are around 20,000 sex slaves in those villages. Human trafficking in Xuzhou has an industrial complex behind it. Unmarried guys can pay around 3,000 to 6,000 Yuan (around $500 to $1,000) to get a girl. The local government then would create a new ID for the girl, and too marriage licenses. The new household then can claim government subsidy. Of course, sex slaves do fight back. They will get beaten up, drugged, or inhumanely tortured as a result. There''''s another woman "living" next to Xia''''s, is crawling on the ground in a more grubby hut. Her knees were knocked to pieces from an attempted run-away. Another one is hung to the beam, whacked every other day. Some of them went insane in the living hell. About half of the rescued sex slaves are diagnosed of having mental illness.

Another question also emerged among all. There''''s a ten-year gap between Xia''''s 1st son and 2nd son. Xia has 7 boys and 1 girl, youngest 1 year old. The chance of getting such biological probability is thin. People suspect Xia has/had other kids. They could be girls that were "dealt with", following the prevailing gender discrimination across rural areas in China, the same discrimination causing the gender disproportion in China leaving men out number women by 30 million in rural areas, as girls are aborted, drowned after birth, or abandoned during infancy.

The public is giving backlash. Apparently, the numbers don''''t add up. There''''s no photographic or witness evidence either.

Till then, Ying''''s mother''''s DNA request is still not granted.

To date, Xia is segregated and confined to a mental institution guarded by armed police force for "national security reasons", no volunteer or social worker allowed to visit. The truth is prevented to be found out by the state apparatus.

According to all the information gleaned so far, Xia is not simply a psychotic woman who is mistreated. The whole occurrence is a consortium of crimes on multiple levels with unfathomable magnitudes. Xia was abducted, human trafficked, raped, sexually abused and assaulted, used as a reproductive machine, manhandled, and tortured. She was a prey of the looters, human traffickers, her purchaser family of 3 males, local authorities who participated in raping and giving green light to the business chain, higher up government who makes up a story to deny her identity, and the state government that censors public opinions.

We want to ask a few questions:

- Why isn''''t a DNA comparison approved?

- Why isn''''t Xia permitted to talk to anyone outsider?

- Why isn''''t the local government answering on what base did they issued the press releases that are contradicting each other?

- How many more women like Xia are there in the same village? The same city? The same province?

- What is being done to help them?

In so, we urgently request that you send out an independent investigation panel to evaluate the situation. We feel for Xia. Any human being''''s heart would pain at such hideous crime. She is our daughter, sister, cousin... She was us. Remember, she, a sweet teenage girl much loved and cared for, was on her way to school one day, suddenly blacked out, and woke up in a living hell, with no one there to help. The state apparatus is used to protect perpetrators. The system is failing her.

We want the truth. We need the truth. We demand that the Xuzhou government give Li, Ying''''s freedom and life back.

感谢！辛苦了！

想提一点点建议：可不可以把疑似绑架写进去？

human trafficking这个话题经常是跟社会底层联系在一起的，关注度可能会低于中产、受教育家庭、未成年被绑架和强奸。美国非常明显是这样，中国可能也是类似情况

对 现在捐款相对容易 牵头人不好找

bananamm 发表于 2022-02-12 10:28

可以找一个打击拐卖的NGO，建立一个escrow account接受捐款。Time Square 一天大概是5000（具体投放多久还需要再confirm一下）。在投放之前联络媒体，使得效果更为扩大。
