In recent months, we have observed that some users have set up personal pages on Weibo, the WeChat Public Platform, Douyin and other social platforms, posting material related to Iris Chang. We thank everyone for their support of Iris and trust that the gesture is, in itself, well meant. These pages, however, have begun to cause confusion online: it is at times difficult for readers to know which pages are authorized and which are not.
The Iris Chang Studio welcomes the sharing of material related to Iris. We earnestly ask, however, that those who have set up pages of their own under the name of “the Iris Chang Studio” do not allow that name to be confused with ours. Please mark clearly, on the page itself, that the page is not run by the Studio.
We have also noticed that some personal pages are being used to sell books. We state here, on the record, that the Iris Chang Studio is, in perpetuity, non-profit, and runs a book-giving programme each year. Any sales activity has no connection with the Iris Chang Studio.

Beyond the platforms listed above, any page or outlet claiming to be “the Iris Chang Studio” has nothing to do with the Studio, and the text or audiovisual material carried on such pages does not have the Studio’s authorization. To avoid any uncertainty as to its accuracy, please be careful in distinguishing where information comes from, so as not to be confused or misled by content of unclear origin.
We ask everyone, before quoting or reposting, to verify a source briefly, and — whether reposting in full or in part — to mark clearly the original publication and date. We also recommend, when you encounter a piece of writing or a video of unclear origin that bears the name “Iris Chang Studio,” that you decline to share or repost it.
