Minky Worden explains that Human Rights Watch has not advocated boycotting the Beijing Games because it sees the Games as an opportunity to bring up the topic of universal human rights standards with China in a positive way. This is an excerpt from a Carnegie Council event about the Beijing Games (May 16, 2008).
