Jailed For Dissent: An Open Discussion With Amos Yee
Public · Hosted by Harvard College Open Campus Initiative
****THIS IS A LOTTERIED EVENT****
We are excited to announce that HCOCI will be hosting Amos Yee this coming Monday at 6 PM in Science Centre Hall E.
Yee first came to international attention in 2015 when he was sentenced to jail in Singapore after releasing videos that were critical of the country’s late prime minister, Lee Kuan Yew.
Only 19 years old, he self-identifies as an anarcho-communist.
In September of this year, Yee was granted political asylum in the United States. We look forward to a brief discussion of Yee’s background and story, followed by an open conversation with students.
