Go AOC. Go Tibet for leading the way

Last week, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez joined the Tibetan community and many long-time supporters of Tibet in Queens at the Tibetan community center to celebrate Tibetan New Year. At this event, I had the opportunity to share my thoughts with attendees and guests.
“We are not only a community of immigrants, we are also a community of refugees, which means, we are a community of resistance.
Six million Tibetans have stood up against tyranny for the last six decades. When all the governments of the world bow down to Beijing’s pressure, when the corporations and multinational companies sell out to CCP’s bargain, we Tibetans have always stood up and fought for freedom. We have never sold out our values and principles for the sake of temporary profits.
On behalf of my Tibetan friends in New York, I’d like to say to our chief guest Congresswoman Occasio and all our political representatives: we see you as a spokespersons for freedom, and champions of human rights and social justice. You can count on us as your allies in the fight for equality and justice at home, and freedom and dignity in the world. We will remain your community of resistance. Welcome to our community. Thank you. Happy Losar.”
