July 20 2014 marks 15 years of ongoing persecution of Falun Dafa (also called Falun Gong) practitioners in China. Supporters gather all around the world, from North America, to Europe, to Asia, to Australia, in order to raise awareness and expose the brutality of the CCP against this peaceful practice.
Although every region has its own ways of commemorating this date, most of them include holding up banners, handing out informational pamphlets, demonstrating the exercises of Falun Dafa, organizing parades, rallies, and a candlelight vigil at night. Various local congressmen and leaders either send in letters, or come in person to show their support and to call for an immediate end to the persecution.
People from all over the world express their deepest regret that another year has gone by without change, and hope that these events would not be necessary anymore in the coming year.
