(Clearwisdom.net) The ancient German city of Augsburg has 2000 years of cultural heritage and some amazing works of art. This college station is the third largest city in Bavaria, Germany.
On October the 16th 2004, Dafa practitioners held activities which included exercise demonstrations, leaflet distribution, an anti-torture exhibition and Chinese traditional dancing in the centre of Augsburg. The activities were held to enable local residents to get a better understanding of the facts of Falun Gong and to inform them about the brutal suppression of Dafa practitioners who are persecuted because they believe in "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance". Many practitioners from Munich, Heidelberg, Chamer, Ulm and other neighbouring cities came to support the activities.

After watching the anti-torture exhibition, residents of Augsburg were shocked. They attentively viewed the exhibition of photos about the campaign of genocide that has been waged against Falun Gong by former Chinese leader Jiang Zemin and his followers since 1999. Many people took the initiative to sign a petition in support of the lawsuits against Jiang. Also many people asked how they could help. After watching the exercise demonstrations and the traditional Chinese dance performances, people accepted leaflets with delight.
One overseas Chinese person told the practitioners that he used to think that the persecution of Falun Gong in China had nothing to do with him. However, he later started to seriously ponder over the question of Falun Gong. He then started to have doubts about the information provided by China's state-run media and gradually came to understand that he had been fooled by Jiang's deceitful lies. Many Chinese people silently took the truth-clarifying materials offered by the practitioners. But there were still some Chinese who refused to take them. Practitioners said that they would work hard on truth clarification to help more people understand the truth.
