  • Why China’s Vaccine Internationalism Matters

    Why China’s vaccine internationalism matters

    Originally published: Qiao Collective on April 8, 2021 (more by Qiao Collective)  |

    As rich nations stockpile COVID-19 vaccines, China is providing a lifeline to Global South nations spurned by Western pharmaceuticals and excluded by the West’s neocolonial vaccine nationalism. So why is China being smeared for its efforts?

    Race reductionism: Neocolonialism and the ruse of “Chinese privilege”

    Originally published: Qiao Collective on March 8, 2021 (more by Qiao Collective)  |

    Raising their banner high: Fascism, imperialism, and anti-communism at the Capitol Hill riots

    Originally published: Qiao Collective on January 10, 2021 (more by Qiao Collective)  |

    Qiao Collective on challenging U.S. aggression on China, the role of the Western left

    Originally published: Qiao Collective on December 6, 2020 (more by Qiao Collective)  |

    On the domestic front, the U.S. propaganda machine mostly works instead to position China as this great, menacing oriental Other. We’ve seen this during the COVID-19 pandemic in Trump’s rhetoric about the “China virus” and in Biden’s attempts at one-upmanship.
