We’re checking these organizations websites regularly to get updates and read the latest:

Tibetan Centre for Human Rights & Democracy in Dharamsala, India, Students for a Free Tibet, and their regularly updated blog and the International Campaign for Tibet, which has a very comprehensive list of Tibet-related links and resources. Additionally, we’re always looking at the Tibetan People’s Uprising Movement’s website, a new coordinated Tibetan resistance effort led by five Tibetan organizations in the lead up to the 2008 Beijing Olympics. You can watch their campaign video here. For online press, you may wish to look at The Times and the Chinese government site, Xinhua.
