China Boycotts Western Companies Over Uyghurs

Companies are being pressured to scrub from their websites language about corporate policies on human rights, reverse decisions to stop buying cotton produced in Xinjian, and remove maps that depict Taiwan as an independent country. In October 2020, the Geneva-based Better Cotton Initiative (BCI), an influential non-profit group that promotes sustainable cotton production, suspended licensing of Xinjiang cotton, citing allegations and increasing risks of forced labor. The statement has since been scrubbed from the BCI website, and, disturbingly, also is not accessible on the Internet Archive. In March 2020, the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, in a report, Uyghurs for Sale, revealed that Uyghurs were working in factories under conditions of forced labor that are in the supply chains of more than 80 well-known global brands in the clothing, automotive and technology sectors.
