Abstract
- As the Olympic Games opened in Beijing, protesters around the world sought to capture a bit of the spotlight for human rights issues. In Ankara, the Turkish capital, a member of China's Uighur minority drenched himself in gasoline and set himself on fire before fellow demonstrators rushed to extinguish the flames and took him to a hospital.
