Desmond Tutu once said, " When the Missionaries came to Africa, they had the Bible and we had the land. They said, " let us pray" . We closed our eyes. when we opened them, we had the Bible and they had the land. Likewise, when social networking came, they had the WhatsApp and Facebook, and we had the freedom.

When Christian missionaries came to the qing dynasty and were eventually rejected by government officials, the British said how dare the Chinese take away the freedoms of their people to explore their belief in God, and when the unequal treaties were signed more missionaries came to help to "broaden" people's minds on Christianity. In modern days it's been replaced with human rights

Barrett, if you have time to visit Yunnan province, you would be able to find out more of Chinese minorities. Yunnan is known for its ethnic diversity. Home to 26 different Chinese minorities, it is rich in culture and a good place to learn about non-Han China. Grown up in Yunnan province as a Han, I never remember any of minority schoolmates were treated differently or discriminated. I used to envy them could enjoy more marks added to university entrance exam because they were minorities (as the competition is fierce and the government wants to provide the minority students more chance to enter the universities). I still remember when I was very little, one of my classmates in kindergarten is Hui minority (i.e. Muslin), she had different meals specially made for her. Her culture was respected even she was the only Muslin kid in the whole class. This is how we respect each other.

虽然无奈，但只要人类不自我毁灭，天不灭人类，那么人种的清晰界限最终会消失，2000年后的人类，不会再有白色人种、黄色人种，更可能是一种偏黑棕色的人种为主。幸好科技的发达，2000年后的人们，仍可以看到今天不同肤色、不同语言的人类是如何展示文化的多样性的。天下大同，就是血缘趋同、文化趋同。作为汉族等民族，大多数人并不会有体味，他们的子孙，2000年后，或许人人都有很大的体味，又或者基因突变或改良，人类已经可以按照最优化的基因进行后代的繁衍。Who knows？叶卡捷琳娜二世·阿列克谢耶芙娜万岁！

I especially like the diversity of Chinese ethnic cultures. I have been longing for life in Yunnan since I was a child, because there are many ethnic minorities, many cultures and customs different from those in the mainland, blue sky and white clouds on the plateau, colorful ethnic costumes, and wild flowers everywhere. Now I finally move my home to Dali, Yunnan, and feel the mountains and lakes there every day. My husband is a Russian. He especially likes the mountains in Yunnan and the sun on the plateau 🌞。

At the same time, they not only celebrated the Chinese New Year but also the "Yi New Year", as well as the celebration day of the Yi Autonomous Prefecture. They have their own activities and extra holidays, so the Yi people in Chuxiong have about ten days more holidays each year than the average Chinese. As a Yunnanese, I shed tears of envy.

[@rilianzhu9086]

Love from Swindon England. 广西壮族三月三抛绣球选男朋友，I am 汉(Han). I am from Guangxi Nanning. For 30 years everyone too busy to chase dreams and money and no many young people interested in minority culture. China government doesn’t want people forget their tradition minority culture. So ,China government spending money on it and to encourage tryedvkeeping minority culture. Western medias twisted about it.anyway western medias twisted everything about China.

That was so interesting! Didn't know the senior Barrett is so agile hahaha! Nice to see Jocelyn (if I'm not mistaken) of China Daily and Speaking of China blog fame being there too! She has been in China way, way before the Barretts, JiaYoe Nation, Gweilo60 and the rest of recent famous hehehe. And way before the bitter Serpent & Cmilk guys, yes! even stepped foot in the Middle Kingdom! hohoho

Where ever I have travelled in China I have seen only progress and never a sign of minorities being discriminated against negatively only positively as in your example by getting into better colleges and universities simply because they are minorities, this does not seem like the actions of a country trying to destroy it's minorities does it? Maybe the west and amerikkka should stop bad mouthing China and copy them by investing in the people "All of the people" not just the rich privileged minority, besides it's not as if minorities get treated well in any of these western countries or the usa now or in the past either is it. Keep these videos coming showing the truth of the real China not the anti China garbage the western media puts out. 👍👍👍

Destroying or oppressing a minority leads to a social contradiction between the government and the people. Contradictions like that weaken a society and can contribute to its decline. The aim of China's political philosophy and practice is based around keeping its contradictions as few and as small as possible, and even to eliminate them when the opportunity presents itself. Only if you understand this can you find reason behind China's domestic political moves.

92 percent of Chinese is Han, and the rest 55 minorities take the rest 8 percent, and a lot of them has married to Han. To be a minority, it means you get added a lot points when taking college entrance examination. But honestly, nearly all of the 55 minorities are living under developed areas or rural areas.

For some reason, Lee Barrett reminds me of Frank Spencer in "some mother's do have 'em".
