The Uyghur Region, known to the Chinese regime as Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, is located to the northwest of China. It is home to several ethnic groups, most notably the Uyghurs. Uyghur people speak a distinct language, and practice a unique culture that is different from the dominant Han Chinese group. Majority of the Uyghur population are Muslims.

Multiple fashion brands and international companies have been found to be profiting from the exploitation of Uyghurs. Some do so openly, others cover up their ties to forced labor by claiming that they cannot completely trace their supply chains.

When you buy from these brands, you are unknowingly supporting violence, suffering, torture, gender-based sexual abuses, erasure of cultural heritage and identity, and attempts to eradicate an entire people.
