(Clearwisdom.net) On Feb. 27, 2005, close to two thousand Falun Gong practitioners from all over the world gathered in San Francisco and held a large-scale parade to call for attention to the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China, especially to call for help with rescuing orphans of persecution victims.

According to Ms. Wang Yiqun, a member of the Global Mission to Rescue Persecuted Falun Gong Practitioners in China, more than 1,400 Falun Gong practitioners have died from the brutal persecution by Jiang's regime. Many of them have young children. Some children are being raised by their grandparents, and some are currently homeless. Devastated by the loss of parents, they are living without their parents' support. Every day is a challenge to their survival. Many children have lost their basic right of education. Their living condition is deteriorating. They endure discrimination, ridicule and terror. The homeless children also have to fight hunger. Those who are still under detention have to face terror and violence despite their young age. The children's cry can be heard all through the night in some forced labor camps.

According to a report on the Minghui website, when Falun Gong practitioners Huang Ke and Zhong Yunxiu were persecuted to death, their daughter Huang Xinyu was only five years old. She kept looking for her dad. When someone in her family told her that her dad was gone, she seemed to understand, but started looking again after a while. Little Xinyu is now under the care of her grandfather.

Xinyu's grandfather said that she has finally stopped asking where her father is. When her mother died, she was only one and an half years old, and she can't even remember her mother. He said he would tell Xinyu what happened to her parents when she grew older. Xinyu's father was starved to death. His eyes were still open when his father when to see his body.

Nineteen-year-old Liu Xiaotian hid himself in a storehouse of gunnysacks in Shenzhen after his parents died as a result of the persecution. He was afraid of contacting anyone and lived a fugitive's life of terror, anxiety and sorrow for more than one year. His uncle finally assisted him to flee China. He started practicing Falun Gong with the help of Falun Gong practitioners in Denmark. Many children have suffered like Xiaotian but still trapped in China.

Xiaotian demonstrates torture methods at an anti-torture exhibition in northern Europe. His demonstration looked so real and shocking. He said that he would do his best to tell people what his parents had been subjected to.

Ms. Wang said that the Global Mission to Rescue Persecuted Falun Gong Practitioners in China recently published a report on the children under persecution in China. It is a composition of Minghui reports of close to two hundred such children. Because of the CCP's tight control over the media and its information blockade, the voices of these innocent children cannot be heard by the international society. We Falun Gong practitioners outside of China will try our best to tell people these facts in a variety of ways, and we hope that more kind people will help with the rescue of these children.
