Picture has always envied those colleagues who can speak their own ethnic language. I am a Tibetan who cannot speak Tibetan. Our school does not teach Tibetan, so unlike other classmates, my friends and I cannot understand the text posts written by the forum owner. But this does not hinder our love for Tibetan.

My hometown is Danba County, Garze Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, which is also commonly known as Beauty Valley and Dongnu Country. We are different from the Kham Tibetan people who also live in Garze Prefecture. We belong to a very small branch of the Tibetan people - the Jiarong Tibetan people. If you have watched Geda Living Buddha, you can see my beautiful hometown, because that TV series was filmed in my hometown. During the filming of this TV show, I was fortunate enough to see our famous Tibetan performance artist Dobgye, who plays the role of Geda Living Buddha, and was fortunate enough to get his autograph.

I am disgusted by some people who say that we Jiarong Tibetans are not real Tibetans. Those people are always so self-righteous. Why are we not Tibetans? When we say we uphold the Three Jewels and believe in Tibetan Buddhism, we use Tibetan names and live in Tibetan houses. In fact, I have some opinions on some of the narrow-minded nationalists in our nation. Sometimes I have some friends who combine their own ethnic groups with other ethnic groups and are proud of their Tibetan ancestry, but there are always people who pour cold water on them and say that you are not. Pure possession. Is it that important? Is this fair to the relative who gave him Tibetan blood? Should his descendants be deprived of the right to become Tibetan just because they married people of other ethnic groups? I hope that our colleagues will abandon that narrow nationalism and sincerely welcome those colleagues of our blood to join our big family. We are already ethnic minorities, wouldn’t it be better if more people join us to strengthen our nation? This is my humble opinion, I hope you don’t scold me.
