CDT Editors Picks 2020: The Best from CDT and Around the Internet

“In the end, this is how you describe us: Banshee, shrew, whore, and hooker Fishwife, bitch, slutty man-eater. Look, this is how you belittle us” These lyrics from Mandopop star Tan Weiwei (Sitar Tan) are powerful in their own right, but they take on a new urgency in a year when China saw several especially brutal cases of violence against women in the national spotlight.

Hundreds of Xianzi’s fans gathered in the cold outside the courthouse in solidarity.

Student activist Drew Pavlou condemns Australia s ties to China

Drew Pavlou, holding the megaphone, is attacked by Chinese Communist Party supporters, July 24, 2019. The next day, Chinese state media named Pavlou as a leader of the protest. Xu Jie, Beijing’s consul general in Brisbane, praised the “spontaneous patriotic behavior” of those who had attacked him. It was an unusual statement for a diplomat, especially considering Xu’s other position: adjunct professor at the university’s School of Languages and Cultures. His dual roles were an example of the increasingly close ties between Australian universities and China, their biggest source of international students. The university didn’t chastise Xu for promoting violence. Instead, it defended its relationship with Beijing and turned on one of its brightest students.
