Edward Wong, "Ninth Tibetan, a Nun, Immolates Herself in Anti-China Protest," The New York Times, 10/23/11, (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/18/world/asia/ninth-tibetan-a-nun-immolates-herself-in-anti-china-protest.html?_r=1&ref=buddhism).

This article is about yet another self-immolation in protest of China. This time though, it was a nun, the first in this series of events. Tenzin, the 20 year old nun, was the ninth Tibetan to commit self-immolation since March and the fifth one to die. Tenzin's nunnery is close to Kirti where a lot of the Chinese repression has happened. I think these self-immolations are saying a lot but also too much. I don't think that a person or organization needs to die in order to be heard. The writer of this article does a nice job of simply reporting and not taking any personal stance however.
