By Minghui Reporter Zeng Hong

(Clearwisdom.net) On weekends, it seems Manhattan is as busy as any workday. Practitioners from all over the US continue to hold anti-torture exhibits and clarify the truth about Falun Gong every day of the week, now, including the weekends.

Practitioners set up truth-clarification display boards and signature booths in an open area on 42^nd Street. To the left of the booth, an anti-torture exhibit was brought to life by practitioners. To the right was a beautiful and peaceful exercise demonstration. The sharp contrast caught people's attention, and many people stopped to ask what was going on.

After learning about the persecution of Falun Gong, people were shocked and were astonished that peaceful Falun Gong practitioners suffered such brutal persecution in China. Many people signed their names to call for an end to the persecution. Some took pictures of the exhibit.

Practitioners from other areas of the US came to New York to help with truth-clarification activities on the weekend. Practitioners in yellow T-shirts were seen on all nearby streets. Some of them demonstrated exercises, some distributed flyers. Many people on streets told us the persecution was too cruel. As always, there were people who wanted to learn Falun Gong. A passerby learned the five sets of exercises on the spot.

Some practitioners held small display boards on streets. On one side of the board was peaceful meditation. On the other side was a picture of a torture victim. When held above the head, small display boards were very eye-catching. Another practitioner distributed flyers next to the display board. It was very effective.

A student asked a practitioner, "Is all this really happening? Why?" The practitioner told her what Falun Gong was, how Falun Gong was being persecuted in China and that what was taking place in real life was actually much worse than what was shown in the pictures. The girl said it was too cruel. She couldn't understand why there were such things in the world.
