Published on December 9, 2019, a year-long investigation by Paul Mozur into the story of a son determined to free his mother from China's repressive detention and surveillance system has finally led to a breakthrough.

For the first time, the woman at the center of the story shares her own account of life in the detention camps.

Paul Mozur's reporting has shed light on the human cost of China's crackdown on Uighur Muslims and other minority groups in western China.

Our podcast is made by a team of dedicated journalists and producers, including Theo Balcomb, Andy Mills, Lisa Tobin, and many others.
