(Minghui.org) Falun Dafa practitioners from Nuremberg and surrounding cities held an event to tell people about the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) persecution on July 6, 2024. They explained that the CCP has persecuted Falun Dafa (Falun Gong) practitioners for 25 years.
Nuremberg is known as the German human rights city. It has a famous human rights research center and is well-known to human rights organizations and human rights activists around the world for the International Nuremberg Human Rights Award.
Many people took leaflets; some asked why the CCP persecuted peaceful Falun Dafa practitioners; some asked what they could do to help stop the persecution; and some residents also signed a petition condemning the CCP’s live organ harvesting which targets practitioners, and calls on the German government to publicly condemn the persecution.

Nuremberg is located in Bavaria, Germany, which has had friendly relations with Shandong Province, China, for more than 30 years. Practitioners told the public that the Shandong CCP authorities are still persecuting Falun Gong practitioners Ding Yuande and Ma Ruimei from Wulian County, Shandong Province.
Their son Ding Lebin also spoke at the scene and told the public that his father Ding Yuande was still illegally detained in Shandong for practicing Falun Gong. He thanked the international community for its touching efforts to rescue his parents and other Falun Gong practitioners who are still being illegally sentenced and persecuted in Rizhao City, Shandong Province.
Ms. Erika B., who is in her 80s, was shocked and saddened to learn that practitioner Ding Yuande was sentenced and imprisoned for practicing Falun Gong, and faced the danger of life-threatening organ harvesting by the CCP.
She signed the petition condemning the CCP’s organ harvesting. She also held up a banner that read “SOS! Stop the Persecution of Falun Gong in China” and demanded that the CCP immediately release Ding Yuande and stop the illegal surveillance and monitoring of his wife Ma Ruimei. She also participated in the postcard rescue operation in support of Ding Yuande and his wife, demanding that the Chinese Ambassador to Germany immediately help release Ding Yuande. Before she left, she told their son Ding Lebin, “I hope my signature can help you. I hope your parents will soon gain true freedom!”

Some people expressed their interest in the practice and asked where they could learn Falun Dafa.
Some residents were interested in learning Falun Dafa.
A Chinese passer-by said after talking to a practitioner: “Before, I had negative thoughts about Falun Dafa, and I only knew what was reported on Chinese TV. Now that I’m outside of China, I should learn more about it myself.” The practitioner encouraged her and said that everyone has the right to know the truth.
Before leaving, the Chinese woman took information materials about the CCP’s live organ harvesting and how to withdraw from the CCP and its affiliated organizations. She said she would read them carefully. She sincerely thanked the practitioner for reminding her to pay attention to Internet and mobile phone safety.
