April 29, 2009 |   By a practitioner from Florida

(Clearwisdom.net) On April 24, Falun Gong practitioners from Gainesville, Florida held a signature-collecting activity on the campus of the University of Florida, commemorating the 10th anniversary of the "April 25" Appeal.

Reporter from a local TV station interviews a practitioner as a student signs her name

The practitioners made a banner that read, "Freedom for Falun Gong." Many students and faculty signed their names to support the practitioners' efforts.

A local TV station covered the activity on the evening news. One reporter told the practitioners that she had watched the first episode of the NTDTV documentary "A Decade of Courage" before she came to do the interview. She hoped that the second episode will be released soon.

Practitioners went to pass out truth-clarifying materials at a farmer's market the next day. Many people said that they saw the news on TV and supported Falun Gong.
