Show Notes
Welcome to Season 2 of China Uncovered, a podcast devoted to revealing all that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) seeks to conceal.
Since you last joined us, the CCP has continued, largely unabated, in its attempts mask the extent and nature of its challenge to American interests and the values we share with the free world. But civil society hasn’t skipped a beat. In June 2021, The Heritage Foundation released the China Transparency Report highlighting the work of experts all across the world who are dedicated to helping us better understand the aims and activities of the CCP.
This season, you will hear from some of these experts as they share their findings and help us to more effectively counter the CCP’s lack of transparency.
