- Title: The Three News Campaign: 三新活动 (Sān xīn huódòng)
- Audio:
- Description: This is an audio recording of how to pronounce 三新活动 (Sān xīn huódòng). The Three News Campaign was inspired by Xi Jinping’s announcement of the “Beautiful China” initiative during the 19th Communist Party of China National Congress on October 18, 2017. According to Timothy A. Grose, authorities in Xinjiang drew on the initiative in their formulation of plans to “beautify” Uyghur communities throughout the region. Because the “Three News” include “advocating a new lifestyle,” “establishing a new atmosphere,” and “constructing a new order,” the campaign does more than remodel homes and neighborhoods. Goals include eliminating certain religious practices, regulating clothing, and promoting community activities like sports and patriotic singing competitions. One government announcement describes the campaign as raising ideological awareness (思想觉悟), moral standards (道德水准), and civilized self-cultivation (文明素养).
