China has approved a sweeping new law which claims to help promote “ethnic unity” - but critics say it will further erode the rights of minority groups.
On paper, it aims to promote integration among the 56 officially recognised ethnic groups, dominated by the Han Chinese, through education and housing. But critics say it cuts people off from their language and culture.
It mandates that all children should be taught Mandarin before kindergarten and up until the end of high school. Previously students could study most of the curriculum in their native language such as Tibetan, Uyghur or Mongolian.
The law in the US prohibits pedophilia and there you have the president and plenty of people around him. Hell, its constitution itself prohibits discrimination, yetwe all know how rampant discrimination is at every level.
The law only applies to average citizens. Anyone with enough power, and likely anyone who agrees with them, is exent. So ethnic discrimination will be prhibited as long as it isn’t the “right” discrimination or isn’t done by a non-powerful person.
