(Clearwisdom.net) On April 23, 2008, Falun Gong practitioners were once again invited by Massachusetts University to have a booth at their annual health expo.

Many people stopped at the Falun Gong booth. Some were studiously learning the art of making folded paper lotus flowers, and then turned around to teach others. Some wanted to learn the Falun Gong exercises, and started doing them right away. During the whole health expo, the Falun Gong booth was always crowded with people. Workers at other expo booths also came by to get informational materials and learned to make paper lotus flowers.
Practitioners told people who came to our booth about Falun Gong and the persecution in mainland China. Those who understood the situation were shocked and signed the petition against the persecution.
Fabianie Andre, who had seen the torture display before, said, "I saw, a year ago in Copley Square, the display of organ harvesting by the Chinese Communist regime. I was so terrified by the Communists inhumane action that it still remains in my memory. The persecution of these good Falun Gong practitioners is extremely absurd!"
The Falun Gong booth was one people truly appreciated. Those who came either learned to practice the Falun Gong exercises or learned the art of making paper lotus flowers. William McGhee, an MU student, especially thanked Falun Gong practitioners for bringing the truth to the University.
