United States: Pittsburgh Practitioners Hold Free Falun Gong Workshop

During the activities held a while ago to rescue our persecuted family members, many people told us that they would like to learn the Falun Gong exercises. To satisfy people's request, on the evening of November 6, we held a free Falun Gong workshop on the campus of the University of Pittsburgh.

Students who came to learn the exercises were all very sincere. During the more than two-hour workshop, they attentively listened to practitioners' introduction of Falun Gong, the on-going persecution and learnt the five-set exercises. After the workshop, several students signed a petition to express their support of Falun Gong.

A reporter and a photographer from the university newspaper also came to gather news.

This workshop helped us realise that our truth-clarifying activities were still not broad and thorough enough, because none of the students who came to learn the exercises said that they had heard of the persecution of Falun Gong before. Originally, we thought through many truth-clarifying activities and the media's repeated reports, at least most Pittsburgh residents would have already known about the on-going persecution in China. Now it seemed that there are still many people waiting for us to tell them the facts about the persecution.
