Washington DC: Touring Exhibition Displays Tortures Suffered by Falun Gong Practitioners in China (Photos)
(Clearwisdom.net) On the morning of July 17, 2004, on the occasion
that the persecution of Falun Gong initiated by Jiang Zemin has lasted for five
years, Falun Gong practitioners from Washington DC and other areas across the
United States began their touring anti-torture exhibition in front of the
Lincoln Memorial. They demonstrated methods of torture currently suffered by
practitioners in China including digging bamboo sticks into fingers through
fingernails, tiger bench, dead person's bed, force-feeding, handcuffing, iron
cage, pressing, electrical shocking, burning, and hanging up. The exhibition was
accompanied by sound effects and explanation. Lincoln Memorial is a famous tourist attraction. A constant stream of
tourists from around the U.S. came to visit it. People were all shocked at the
torture methods exhibited. Many people signed the petition to call for an end to
the persecution of Falun Gong in China. At least 5,000 flyers introducing Falun
Gong and the methods of torture used against practitioners in China were
distributed. This anti-torture exhibition will tour around some of the tourist attractions
and government offices in Washington DC so as to allow people to learn more
about the various methods of torture currently suffered by Falun Gong
practitioners in China.
