I escaped a Chinese internment camp / written and edited by Anthony Del Col ; based on interviews and testimony with Zumrat Dawut ; art by Fahmida Azim ; colors by Rebecca Good ; letters by Taylor Esposito.
"This graphic novella recounts the true story of Zumrat Dawut, as originally published in the independent online news organization, Insider, through interviews conducted by Anthony Del Col and testimony given to the United Nations Human Rights Council. Zumrat Dawut is a mother of three in the Xinjiang autonomous region in China, who was arrested and sent to a detention facility for simply being a Muslim. There she endured brutal living conditions, torture, interrogations, anti-Muslim propaganda, and sterilization. But that was just the beginning of Zumrat's troubles, who with her husband would soon hatch a plan to escape to America."-- Page [4] of cover.
