List of Statements About Xinjiang Cotton

News: Chinese Indie Brands & Xinjiang Cotton

So, for some background on the posts in support of XinJiang cotton, some of them are just this hashtag which is support XinJiang Cotton. Others are the hashtag plus a short message, or explaining which items they sell use this cotton.

Some of them also include an image of a blanket, and these are usually give always where they are going to give a free blanket made of the cotton to a follower. I’ve added a link to “contest details” to help identify the posts where they are not only endorsing XinJiang cotton, but also using it as a promotional opportunity for the brand.

Others are Anti-Nike, because Nike is one of the companies that posted a statement saying they do not and will not source cotton from the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR) due to reports of forced labor. Because of this, companies like Nike and H&M are facing backlash on Chinese social media.

Lastly, there are also some which show regional food and suggest eating those foods in support? This is a common thread in some of the longer messages as well.

This list was built primarily from Loki’s list with some supplement from comments on discord, and is presented for so people can see exactly what was being posted by these particular sources. I’ve roughly alphabetized them by the English translation of the name.

This is currently a work in progress.
