Join USCET for a conversation with Emily Feng to discuss her new book, Let Only Red Flowers Bloom. Through her writing, Feng illuminates the human dimension of China’s authoritarian turn through intimate portraits of resistance: she reveals the personal struggles of a Uyghur family torn apart by mass detention, human rights lawyers confronting overwhelming obstacles, an Inner Mongolian teacher’s difficult cultural choices, and Hong Kong dissidents seeking freedom abroad—all maintaining dignity despite oppression. From Beijing and Taipei, Feng has reported on China amid extraordinary challenges: pervasive surveillance, visa restrictions, rising risks for sources, and an increasingly closed society. Despite these obstacles, Feng’s work strives to humanize Chinese citizens and deepen Americans’ understanding of life in today’s China. How can American audiences gain a nuanced understanding of contemporary China?
