Historical Photos: Tens of Thousands of Falun Gong Practitioners Peacefully Appealed on April 25, 1999
(Clearwisdom.net) Editor's Note: To commemorate the eleventh anniversary of the April 25 Appeal, Clearwisdom presents this as one of a series of republished articles from years past. The April 25th Appeal was notable not only for its size, but also because it was remarkably peaceful and orderly. Some 10,000 practitioners gathered in central Beijing that day, peacefully protesting for their civil rights. The CCP propaganda machine, however, in its quest to crush Falun Gong at the bidding of then Party Chairman Jiang Zemin, twisted the facts to serve its own motives. To this day, CCP propaganda accuses Falun Gong of "laying seige to the Zhongnanhai Central Government Compound" on April 25, 1999, falsely alleging that the 10,000 gathered posed a violent threat to the nation and its leaders. Nothing could be further from the truth, of course, as this series of articles documents from various angles.

Remembering the Days of Petitioning on Tiananmen Square in 1999
(Clearwisdom.net) Eleven years ago, countless Falun Gong practitioners went to Beijing one after another to join together in a peaceful appeal for Falun Gong. There were a lot of inspiring and touching stories. I was among those people. Today when I look back after all those years, I still feel touched.
