(Minghui.org) Falun Dafa practitioners held an event on Boston Commons on July 14, 2024, calling for a stop to the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) 25-year-long persecution of their belief. They called special attention to the CCP’s atrocity of harvesting organs from practitioners while still alive.
