Rally commemorates "April 25" on Federal Square in Chicago

(Clearwisdom.net) "Today, seven years ago, history focused on Beijing, China, when more than 10,000 Chinese citizens from across China stood in front of Beijing's State Department Appeals Office (near Zhongnanhai). It is the first time in China's 5,000 year history that there occurred such a large-scale peaceful and rational rights advocacy movement of citizens' appeal. This day is remembered as the 'April 25' Peaceful Appeal when more than 10,000 Falun Gong practitioners spontaneously assembled outside the appeals office to hold a large-scale appeal in order to safeguard their legal rights and beliefs. The Chinese Communist regime (CCP) later labeled it as so-called, 'Incident of besieging Zhongnanhai,' and it became the excuse for the CCP to initiate a nation-wide brutal persecution of the Falun Gong group."
