Falun Gong and the Chinese Right's Anti-Trans, Anti-Communist Moral Panics with Chris Lee

from Sad Francisco · host Toshio Meronek, Tofu Estolas, Chris Lee

Chris Lee studies the emergent Asian and Asian American rightwing in the US, including forces like the Falun Gong cult. We discuss the FLG and its flagship soft power campaigns that include the Shen Yun dance company and the Epoch Times newspaper—and how it's part of a larger effort to sow anti-communist, anti-trans sentiment in the US.
