As reported by Radio Free Asia, July 20 was the sixth anniversary of when the CCP started the brutal persecution of Falun Gong. Falun Gong practitioners from San Francisco recently held a series of activities appealing to stop the CCP's persecution of Falun Gong.
It was reported, "On the weekend, Chinatown was bustling. Over 100 Falun Gong practitioners held banners and posters at Washington Square near Chinatown. They paraded through several busy intersections and made their way towards Garden Corner Square. Once there they held a rally and set up a torture display exhibiting the CCP's persecution of Falun Gong. In the torture exhibit, there were seven to eight torture methods on display."
According to the Falun Gong practitioners' narration, thousands of Falun Gong practitioners who have been arrested by the CCP have broadly suffered such tortures. Falun Gong practitioner Wang Yali recalled her torture experience of being locked into a small cage. She still had a vivid memory of the scene six years ago when she was arrested together with other Falun Gong practitioners and detained in Jingshan Stadium.
Wang Yali said, "The police pulled Falun Gong practitioners down the stairs to torture them. The practitioners' heads would get hit and knocked on the steps when they were dragged down the stairs. The clothing of female practitioners got torn and their bodies became exposed. It is unimaginable to anyone that the CCP treated people like this."
Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Ma said, "During the past six years, the persecution has never stopped but the situation has changed a lot. Now, Falun Gong practitioners are taking the initiative to expose the CCP's brutal persecution of Falun Gong. Many people have taken a stand to support Falun Gong, including some government officials."
Pan, a local San Francisco Falun Gong practitioner and a top level executive in an American company, explained in Cantonese to the elderly overseas Chinese in Garden Corner Square about the persecution that Chinese Falun Gong practitioners had suffered in the past six years. He said, "Since July 20 six years ago, I have not taken a vacation or traveled away with my family. For six years, I have spent almost all my spare time and money to expose the CCP's persecution of Falun Gong because so many Falun Gong practitioners in China are still suffering."
Besides the parade, rally and torture exhibit, Falun Gong practitioners also held the Falun Dafa Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance Art Exhibit at the Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall in San Francisco's Chinatown.
