Tibet Talks Special Edition: “Tibet in Chains” Book Launch
Thursday, Feb. 25 at 1 pm EST / 10 am PST
TIBET IN CHAINS
The Stories of Nine Tibetan Nuns
A new book from the International Campaign for Tibet
-
In the early 1990s, China’s notorious prisons in Tibet’s capital of Lhasa
held hundreds of political prisoners. Among them was a group of 14 young nuns,
mostly from Garu nunnery, who were imprisoned in the dreaded Drapchi Prison.
On account of their comradery and solidarity—including in recording songs in
praise of His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Tibet—they came to be known as the
Drapchi 14 or the singing nuns.
Our new book shares the stories of these nuns in their own words. And in this
special edition of Tibet Talks, you’ll get to hear from two of the formerly
imprisoned nuns, listen to readings from the book and learn more about the
plight of Tibetan political prisoners.
