Video of the Andijon Uprising
This video–70 minutes long–was put together from two videos made on the scene, both confiscated by the government of Uzbekistan. It’s been edited and used to prove the government’s case that it was just defending itself from well-armed and funded international terrorists (In one accusation–well-armed Islamic terrorists bent on creating an Islamic caliphate in Central Asia funded by the US government!). Even so, it’s a primary source, made possible by the Carnegie Endowment and Martha Brill Olcott.

And the NYT article about it and the video.
