This American Life. This American Life’s recent episode called “Black Box” tells the story of a man named Abdurahman Tohti. Tohti moved to Turkey from China seven years ago to be safe from a regime that discriminates against his ethnic group - the Uyghurs. Tohti was arrested in Turkey for having an expired residency permit and, when he returned home from the detention center, his son was gone; Tohti’s wife, Peride, had sent him to China with her parents. In an effort to bring their son home, Peride flew to China with their daughter.
