Dear all,

My name is Nancy Tang. I am a future JD candidate (will enroll in 2016) and I’m involved in the young Chinese feminist community in Beijing.
I want to draw your attention to the recent detention of feminist activists in Beijing, Guangzhou & Hangzhou. I was able to write an English profile of the five feminists still missing.

A group of civil rights lawyers has issued a statement under the group name “???????”.

I’d love to hear your advice and suggestions as to how to help make sure these feminists still in detention are safe, have access to attorneys, and can possibly get released soon. I’m in touch with one of the lawyers currently involved, and can ask him to share his contact with the listserv, if there is the interest.

With gratitude and my very best,
Nancy
