(Minghui.org) Falun Gong practitioners held an event in downtown Hamburg on June 20, 2020, where many people learned about Falun Gong from the exercise demonstration, fliers, and banners. Practitioners also told people about the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) persecution of Falun Gong. Many people signed a petition calling for an end to the persecution.

Phillip and his girlfriend were appalled by the reenactment of the CCP’s live organ harvesting atrocities. A practitioner explained in detail the CCP’s 20-year-long persecution campaign and how the killing of Falun Gong practitioners for organs was first exposed in 2006.
Phillip said the persecution was serious and deprived people of their basic rights. He said he supported these types of events to raise awareness, as he did not know about the persecution before.

A young lady said after watching the reenactment, “People are being treated like this in China. It is terrible!” She encouraged practitioners to keep up their efforts to end the persecution.
