Where did the White Paper Protests that have swept across China come from, and where are they going? Join us for a Zoom discussion with journalists and entrepreneurs on the ground in China to explore the roots of discontent, the protesters’ short-term demands, and the outlook for change going forward. Will China relax its Zero Covid policy? Will the eruption of protests across China pose a long-term problem for Xi Jinping? Can China’s battered economy recover?
