Young cyclists who crossed the continent to raise awareness about the persecution of Falun Gong in China held a final concert outside the Lincoln Memorial.
Kristine Feng, 15, said she has become a leader on the Ride2Freedom 3,000-mile bike ride, and she says the team has become more patient with each other on the grueling trek.
Rev. Jackson praised the riders for their sacrifices and their exertions making this 3000-mile bicycle journey to save children orphaned by the persecution of Falun Gong in China.
Aila considers Ride2Freedom “a once in a lifetime chance” that she doesn’t want to miss. “It is very important that we raise awareness and save five orphans so they can have a happy life,” she said.
