He Set Himself On Fire For Freedom - Tibet

Young Tibetan pop star Tswenag Norbu self immolated in front of the iconic Potala Palace. The oppression of Tibetans by Chinese government became too much to just sit and watch.

As a young talented musician, Tsewang Norbu had everything going for him. He’d performed on the world’s largest stages and his fans loved him. Like many Tibetans, he’d been forced to bottle up the pain and frustration of Chinese brutality towards Tibetans. In this shocking and inspiring interview, Pema Doma of the Students For A Free Tibet movement explains Tsewang Norbu’s story and tells of the horrors experienced by her people and of the inspiring new generation of Tibetans who are uniting globally and rejuvenating the fight for freedom.
