Huang Xueqin (; born in 1988), also known as Sophia Huang Xueqin, is a Chinese #MeToo activist, women's rights activist, and independent journalist. Before working as an independent journalist, Huang served as an investigative journalist for several newspapers in Guangzhou, China.

In 2022, she received the Wallis Annenberg Justice for Women Journalists Award from the International Women's Media Foundation (IWMF), given to a journalist who is unjustly imprisoned. In June 2024, Huang was sentenced to five years in prison after having been found guilty of subverting state power, while Wang was sentenced to three and a half years. Provided by Wikipedia
