Tibetans in France have been sounding the alarm over the Guimet Museum of Asian Arts' relabelling of its art and artefacts from Tibet, saying it has caved to pressure from China to "erase" Tibetan culture.
Each week since September, a group of Tibetans in Paris have been gathering across the street from the city's Guimet Museum of Asian Arts to protest against its decision to change the name of its Tibet Nepal collection to the more general – and they say, inaccurate – term, "Himalayan World".
