Eradicating local culture in Tibet and Xinjiang
Except they still have their culture. We know what eradication of a culture looks like, it looks like schools that ban the use of native languages, instead of teach in them.
~98% of Tibetans speak a Tibetan language.
Enforcing Mandarin
Everyone in China learns Mandarin in additional to their local language, how else are they supposed to communicate with people from other parts of China?
What country? Surely you don’t mean Canada where native schools teach in english?
Is replacing textbooks with Mandarin texts just half-eradication, then?
The regional government announced last week that primary and secondary schools that originally taught in the Mongolian language would shift to Mandarin to teach three core subjects: literature, ethics and history
Turns out it’s hard to teach Chinese literature, ethics, and history when you can’t interact with the primary sources.
That’s the core question then: should Mongolian children be made to learn Chinese literature, ethics, and history instead of Mongolian literature, ethics, and history?
