Disney is facing increased heat for thanking Chinese government agencies in Mulan - The A.V. Club

Disney’s live-action Mulan movie continues to be the headache that keeps on giving this week, as THR reports that the massive entertainment company has come under increasing scrutiny for the film’s decision to film in—and thank the government of—China’s Xinjiang region.

Said critiques include pointing out that the film’s credits apparently specifically thank the Xinjiang Public Security Bureau in Turpan, an organization that has become notorious in recent years for operating “re-education” camps targeting the region’s Uighur Muslim population, in numbers that have been reported as high as a million people forcibly interred.

Mulan had already faced a fair amount of censure ahead of its release last weekend, thanks in part to a social media post made last year by star Liu Yifei that seemed to show support of the Hong Kong police against protesters in the city.
