Wang Gang Interview on Danwei

Yesterday I was fortunate to run across a very interesting video interview posted on Danwei.  In the interview Jeremy Goldkorn talks with Wang Gang, author of the book English: A Novel, a book that I have reviewed both on this site and on Danwei.  For those of you who aren't familiar, Wang Gang grew up in Xinjiang during the darker times in China's history and his novel reflects both his experience and his hindsight concerning that period.

I find his words particularly interesting in light of recent events in Xinjiang.  Blame is always easier to push onto others, especially when we feel a tinge of guilt ourselves.  Anyway, the Wang Gang interview is well done and worth a quick view.
