在中國政府禁止維吾爾書籍、夷平穆斯林墓地的時候，詩歌仍然是維吾爾人民堅持和抵抗的一種強大形式。
「在這個被遺忘的地方，我沒有愛人的撫摸/每個夜晚都有更黑暗的夢，我沒有護身符/生命就是我唯一所求，我沒有別的渴望/無聲的想法折磨著我，我沒有任何希望。我曾經是誰，我變成了什麼，我不知道/能向誰傾訴我的心願，我無法訴說/我的愛，命運的心意難測/我渴望走向你，我沒有行動的力氣從裂縫和罅隙，我看到季節的變化/為尋找你的消息，我徒勞地尋找花蕾/我從心底渴望和你在一起/有什麼道路通往這裡，為什麼我沒有回家的路。」
——這是維吾爾詩人加拉里丁在中國拘禁營中寫的詩。
世界可以從一個將藝術作為威權主義解藥的文化中學到很多東西。在鐵絲網和哨塔之後，詩人與詩歌提醒我們，當這種文化被消滅之時，我們決不能默默地站在那裡。

Today, as the Chinese state bans Uighur books and paves over Muslim graveyards, poetry remains a powerful form of persistence and resistance for the Uighur people.
“In this forgotten place I have no lover’s touch. Each night brings darker dreams, I have no amulet. My life is all I ask, I have no other thirst. These silent thoughts torment, I have no way to hope. Who I once was, what I’ve become, I cannot know. Who could I tell my heart’s desires, I cannot say. My love, the temper of the fates I cannot guess I long to go to you, I have no strength to move. Through cracks and crevices I’ve watched the seasons change. For news of you I’ve looked in vain to buds and flowers. To the marrow of my bones I’ve ached to be with you. What road led here, why do I have no road back home.”
——Uighurs poet Abduqadir Jalalidin composed this piece in China’s internment camps.
The world has much to learn from a culture that has made art its antidote to authoritarianism.
