WASHINGTON, July 11, 2019 /Christian Newswire/ — ChinaAid President Bob Fu is set to be a featured presenter at a July 15 event called “Silicon Valley and China: The Rise Of Religious Oppression Through Technology.”
The free event next Monday is located in the Dirksen Senate Office Building and will address the use of technology as a tool of oppression in China against the religious.
Other featured presenters include Citizen Power Initiatives for China President Yang Jianli, International Religious Freedom Roundtable Co-Chair Greg Mitchell, and Uyghur Human Rights Project Board Chair Nury Turkel.
The event will also feature testimonies of persecution from people representing multiple faiths.
