Activism

In the early 1990s, Chen began to speak out against the Chinese government's one-child policy. He argued that the policy was unfair and that it violated the rights of Chinese citizens. Chen's activism quickly drew the attention of the Chinese government, and he was soon targeted for persecution.

In 1995, Chen was arrested and sentenced to four years in prison for "inciting subversion of state power." After his release from prison, Chen continued to speak out against the Chinese government. He also began to provide legal aid to other victims of human rights abuses.

Persecution

The Chinese government was determined to silence Chen Guangcheng. In 2006, he was arrested again and sentenced to four years and three months in prison. Chen was tortured and beaten in prison, and he was denied medical care. Despite the harsh conditions, Chen never gave up hope.

In 2010, Chen escaped from prison and fled to the United States. He now lives in exile in the United States, but he continues to speak out against the Chinese government.
