A Manhattan Musician: "Evil Will Never Prevail Over Goodness and The Evildoers Will Definitely Receive Retribution" (Photos)

September 13, 2004 | By Clearwisdom correspondent Kelley Huang

(Clearwisdom.net) Stanley is musician in Manhattan. He often gives performances in New York City. On September 10, as he was going to an apartment building in Manhattan, he saw several Falun Gong practitioners dressed in yellow T-shirts. He greeted the practitioners and expressed his support for Falun Gong. He said that the persecution would definitely be stopped because evil would never prevail over goodness and the evildoers would definitely receive retribution.

When Stanley saw Falun Gong practitioners dressed in yellow T-shirts, he called out, "Falun Gong!" He said that he was aware of the brutal persecution encountered by Falun Gong in China. He said that the authorities do not even leave women and children alone. He knew that Jiang Zemin single-handedly initiated this persecution. He believed that Jiang is a malicious person who will definitely receive retribution for his evildoing.

Stanley also told practitioners that what they have been doing is great. He said that people could see Falun Gong practitioners in many places in Manhattan and many people in Manhattan have learned about Falun Gong. He said that people were all talking about Falun Gong and Falun Gong practitioners.

Then Stanley introduced himself. He is a musician and plays jazz in Manhattan. He came from Nigeria, Africa. He said that his country was once an autocratic country, where there was no freedom of belief. Because of that, he himself had been imprisoned for one year. In prison, he was tortured and the scars can still be seen on his back.

Stanley believes that everyone should enjoy the freedom of believing in God or having other religious beliefs. It is unreasonable that people are imprisoned and even tortured simply because of their belief. When saying "goodbye" to practitioners, Stanley said: "On the other hand, the evil will never prevail over the good. The persecution will definitely be stopped and those evildoers will definitely receive retribution."

Stanley expressed that he would like to introduce Falun Gong and the persecution it is suffering during each of his performances, so as to allow more people to learn about Falun Gong and to support Falun Gong. He said that he would also tell businesspeople not to invest in China as long as the persecution continues.

Since August of this year, on many streets and avenues in Manhattan, one can often see Falun Gong practitioners dressed in yellow T-shirts. Some demonstrate the Falun Gong exercises, some talk with passers-by to introduce Falun Gong and expose the persecution, and some distribute truth-clarifying materials. In high-traffic areas, people can also view poster exhibitions and anti-torture demonstrations -- reenactments of the torture methods being used against Falun Gong practitioners in China. Numerous passers-by often stop to watch and find out more information. More and more New Yorkers are becoming aware of the facts about Falun Gong.
