In downtown Salt Lake City, two young women hand out pamphlets to Olympic spectators. "Hello, this is information about Falun Dafa," says Gina, a 31-year-old immigrant from China, who now lives in Houston, Texas. She is a follower of Falun Gong, also known as Falun Dafa, a movement banned in China. "Right now, we are just distributing some flyers (pamphlets) from Falun Gong to the people that come to the winter Olympic games," she says. "We want to let them know what is happening in China."
