Meanwhile, practitioners, wearing yellow T-shirts and white pants also demonstrated the five sets of Falun Gong exercises. The graceful movements and peaceful nature of the practice cast a dramatic contrast to the brutality of the persecution. Many passersby stopped to watch and were surprised to learn that such a brutal persecution could take place in China during this 21st century. Passing-by vehicles also slowed down or even stopped to acquire Falun Gong materials from practitioners.
