What it's about

We Tibetans, published in 1926 by Rinchen Lhamo, is a groundbreaking work offering a unique Tibetan perspective on life, culture, and society. Written in English, the book challenged prevailing Western stereotypes and misconceptions about Tibet, particularly those concerning Tibetan women and religion.
