China has been under the human rights microscope in recent news. Enclosed is an article from BBC about how China is targeting a local human rights group called Yirenping after the release of five women who were connected to the organization. These five Chinese women have been held in detention for over a month and this has sparked controversy from human rights organizations on a global scale. These women were planning protests against sexual harassment when they were detained. Beyond the obvious injustice, these women were arrested right before international women's day, which is forcing folks to take a serious look at China's policy's.
