Protesters slam Marty Walsh for flying Chinese flag at Boston City Hall

Protesters criticized Boston Mayor Martin Walsh on Wednesday for flying the Chinese flag in front of City Hall, saying the city shouldn’t be honoring a country with as many civil rights issues as China has.

“That flag represents nothing good — censorship, imprisonment,” Thupten Tsering, a member of a local Tibetan organization, said. “How can you fly that flag here?”

Protesters from Tibetan, Uyghur and Hong Kong groups held signs with messages like “CCP does not equal China,” referring to the ruling Chinese Communist Party. “Mayor Walsh, stand up for human rights,” they chanted.
