On the afternoon of December 1, 2002, many practitioners who attended the Eastern U.S. Falun Dafa Experience Sharing Conference held a press conference in downtown Philadelphia, Pennsylvania exposing the Jiang regime's brutal persecution in China and calling for help in rescuing the persecuted practitioners. Afterwards, about 1000 practitioners held a large parade through the downtown area, including Chinatown. Large banners stated, "Please Help Rescue My Persecuted Family Members in China", "Falun Dafa Is Great", etc. The banner, "Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance" at the beginning of the parade was especially outstanding. The parade lasted for an hour and a half, and many Chinese people learned the truth about Falun Dafa and the persecution.
