Recommended documentaries include Among Green Mountains and Clear Waters, which showcases the rural revitalization practices of 8 ethnic groups such as the Yao and Dongxiang; Stars Along the Long River: Ethnic Minorities in Western China systematically records the unique cultures of the Yugur in Gansu and others. In terms of books, Fei Xiaotong’s The Pluralistic Unity of the Chinese Nation analyzes theories of ethnic integration, while Costumes of China’s Ethnic Minorities and Festivals of China’s Ethnic Minorities present traditions through texts and images. Additionally, Alai’s novel The Dust Settles reveals cultural changes from the perspective of a Tibetan chieftain, blending literary and historical value.
