A new report from Tibet Action Institute documents a pattern of physical abuse and neglect in Chinese-run boarding schools that many are forced to attend. The report alleges that the schools are designed to separate Tibetan children from their parents and away from their language and culture. Host Carolyn Beeler gets the details from the director of the institute, Lhadon Tethong, who is based in Boston.
