Disney takker kinesiske myndigheder, der krænker menneskerettighederne for muslimske mindretal – kritikere opfordrer til boykot.
“Mulan”-stjernen Liu Yifei fik for et år siden vakt #BoycottMulan-bevægelsen til live, da hun åbent støttede politiet i konflikten i Hongkong – læs om det her.
Nu er der ny kritik af “Mulan” i kølvandet på premieren. For rulleteksterne er problematiske, mener flere menneskerettighedsforkæmpere.
Således takker Disney myndighederne i Xinjiang – hvor dele af “Mulan” er optaget – for samarbejdet.
Selv samme myndigheder anklages for at stå bag grove krænkelser af menneskerettighederne for muslimske mindretal i regionen.
Derfor bør publikum og Disney-fans boykotte den nye “Mulan”, mener kritikerne.

“Mulan” får dansk premiere på Disney+ den 4. december.
Turpan, whose police Disney thanked at the end of Mulan, is the first documented case of re-education against Muslim minorities in Xinjiang. This Aug 2013 doc speaks of the "re-education" of "focus groups" to "eradicate the soil for the breeding and spread of religious extremism" pic.twitter.com/cMe4PqKl6p

It just keeps getting worse! Now, when you watch #Mulan, not only are you turning a blind eye to police brutality and racial injustice (due to what the lead actors stand for), you're also potentially complicit in the mass incarceration of Muslim Uyghurs. #BoycottMulan https://t.co/dAMgZ6PWTD

Mulan thanks Turpan Bureau of Public Security because it was filmed in Turpan in 2018, the peak of re-education campaign. How many thousands of Uyghur were put into camps by Turpan Bureau of Public Security when filming Mulan there? https://t.co/yX0xssPnKW
