A note from the editor of today's The China Project Access newsletter.

editor's note for Access newsletter

My thoughts today:

Chinaโ€™s Great Firewall blocked off another source of spiritual pollution last week: Bandcamp, a website that allows musicians to upload and sell their music without a record label, is no longer accessible in China without a VPN. As Radii reports, Bandcamp had โ€œbecome a popular outlet for Chinese indie bands in recent years.โ€

Our word of the day is rural revitalization (xiฤngcลซn zhรจnxฤซng ไนกๆ‘ๆŒฏๅ…ด).
