Seth Moulton rips Chinese institute, wants it off college campuses

By Laura Krantz GLOBE STAFF MARCH 09, 2018
US Representative Seth Moulton has urged two colleges in Massachusetts to cut ties with on-campus institutes that have ties to the Chinese government and are believed to promote censorship and undermine human rights.

Moulton, a Democrat from Salem, sent letters this week to Tufts University and UMass Boston asking them to disassociate with the Confucius Institute, which operates centers on both campuses. Confucius Institutes are cultural education organizations that exist on college campuses across the world. They are controversial because they are run by an arm of the Chinese government and are accused of teaching communist propaganda.

“The Chinese government has been clear in its goal and purpose for creating and expanding Confucius Institutes throughout the country, namely to distort academic discourse on China, threaten and silence defenders of human rights, and create a climate intolerant of dissent or open discussion,” Moulton wrote.
