Why would China marginalize them? What can China government gain from that? Are Chinese people evil in nature or something? Quite the opposite.
The truth is Uyghurs don't allow their children to marry Han Chinese, even if they are in love. The government even rewards mixed families with money to encourage interracial marriage.
If a Han Chinese marries a Uyghur, she or he (rare) will be forced to convert to Islam and wash their intestine because they "ate dirty food". Their children will be insulted by Uyghurs and face harsh discrimination. Such families often have to move to big cities to avoid negative attitudes.
BS, there has been and is very little intermarriage, the Han and the Uyghurs don't even speak the same language. Most Han Chinese don't even give a damn about them.
Chinese police have killed 28 members of a "terrorist group" in the mainly Muslim Xinjiang region, authorities announced Friday.
The killings took place over the course of a 56-day manhunt following an attack on a colliery in Aksu in September that left 16 people dead, said the Xinjiang regional government's Tianshan web portal. One "thug" surrendered, it added.

Many Uyghurs left their hometowns and went into the cities to make a living. There was a riot in a factory that employed both Han ad Uyghurs several years ago. So we know that Uyghurs are working/living side by side with Han Chinese. May not be a lot of them, but enough to have caused a racially motivated riot by Han against the Uyghurs in a city far away from their base.
So it's likely that some Uyghurs do know how to speak Chinese (otherwise I assume they wouldn't be hired) or at least speak it well enough to be working in factories.
So if they're living side by side, it does not sound impossible that some of them would fall in love.

My my such naivete, come to China and see for yourself, Han Chinese frequently look down on them, hell the Shanghainese look down on everyone outside of Shanghai.

I told you interracial marriage is very rare because Uyghurs do not allow it.
Most Han Chinese do not care where their spouse is from but Uyghurs do care. A lot of Chinese married Manchus, Mongols and so on, but not the Muslims.

If you really live in China, how can you make a mistake to say Uyghurs cannot speak Chinese? The truth is all young Uyghurs speak Chinese to some extent because Chinese is required in all schools. All educated Uyghurs speak fluent Chinese.
Also, you should have known why some people in east China do not like Uyghurs: because there have been to many scammers and thieves from there, and the police do not want to bother them. Heard of qiegao (the very expensive candy that worth a European car)?
I guess you chose to report partial information due to your agenda.

Similarity, much of our history, Whites look down on Blacks. The civil rights Act wasn't passed until 1964.
Yet, in 1961 a white woman married a black man, and they fathered a son who went on to become our president.

You were saying?

And actually Han Chinese often say Uyghurs are beautiful (both men and women). The barrier is Islam.
