Chinese Ethnic Minority Children In Xinjiang

KASHGAR, XINJIANG - OCTOBER 15: A Chinese ethnic minority child sells groceries at a bazaar on October 15, 2006 in Kashgar city, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China. Known as East Turkestan in times past, this primarily Muslim region of desolate deserts and majestic mountains through which the ancient Silk Road trade passed has had a history of multi-ethnic nomads and oasis dwellers going back over a millenia. As China's largest province comprising 16 percent of the country, it now shares a border with eight other nations. (Photo by Guang Niu/Getty Images)
