#230: The Politics of Language Oppression in Tibet
Manage episode 447425924 series 2201517
After more than 70 years of Chinese rule, much has changed in Tibet, and one notable decline is that of language diversity. There are currently around sixty minority languages spoken in Tibet, in some cases by just a few thousand people, but that number is collapsing under assimilatory state policies.
