There has long been a tradition where people get together in the streets and celebrate peace and all of the people that are around them. In China, this is something that has been going on for decades despite what others might think about the tradition and are trying to get rid of it. The Chinese tradition is to stop the enslavement of people that are being used for organ harvesting and it won’t come to an end any time soon.

- Before the pandemic, waves of people donning yellow and blue would congregate in New York and elsewhere this time of year to take part in a celebration.
- The State Department unveiled sanctions against a Chinese official for persecuting Falun Gong, as the communist regime’s brutal suppression of the spiritual practice approaches its 22nd year.
- The spiritual discipline Falun Gong involves three core tenets, truthfulness, compassion, and tolerance, along with a set of meditative exercises.
