Tibet is a plateau region in Asia, north of the Himalayas. It is home to the Tibetan people, and to some other ethnic groups such as Monpas and Lhobas, and is inhabited by considerable numbers of Han and Hui people. Tibet is the highest region on earth, with an average elevation of 4,900 meters (16,000 ft). It is sometimes referred to as the roof of the world.  During Tibet's history, starting from the 7th century, it has existed as a unified empire and as a region of separate self-governing territories, vassal states, and Chinese provinces. In the interregnums, various sects of Tibetan Buddhism, secular nobles, and foreign rulers have vied for power in Tibet. The latest religious struggle marked the ascendancy of the Dalai Lamas to power in western Tibet in the 17th century, though his rule was often merely nominal with real power resting in the hands of various regents and viceroys. Today, most of cultural Tibet is ruled as autonomous areas in the People's Republic of China.

Tibet Breaking the Silence 2012 Wall Calendar

Tibet Breaking the Silence 2012 Wall Calendar

Despite continued censorship and harsh penalties for opposing the Chinese Communist Party, there has been a vibrant literary and cultural resurgence in Tibet since spring 2008, when protests against government policy and calls for the return of the Dalai Lama swept across the plateau. Tibetan writers, singers and poets, fluent in Chinese as well as Tibetan, have begun a movement re-asserting their Tibetan identity. By daring to refute China’s official characterization of Tibet, this new generation of Tibetans represents a profound challenge to the ruling Communist Party and, as a result, those who break the silence put themselves at great risk. ICT’s 2012 calendar, Tibet: Breaking the Silence, features excerpts of poems, essays and songs translated into English and accompanied by the images of Tibet they evoke.
