(Clearwisdom.net) On November 23, 2006, the Thanksgiving Parade in
Chicago was held on State Avenue. More than 300 thousand spectators watched the
parade, and 1.5 million watched on ABD Channel 7.
The Divine Land Marching Band
Chinese people are proud of the band.
It is the fourth time that Falun Gong practitioners attended this second
biggest parade in America. The Divine Land Marching Band, consisting of more
than 200 Falun Gong practitioners, performed "Falun Dafa is good" and
"America, the beautiful". The spectators applauded for them. People
were surprised that most members of the band are Chinese. It was the only
Chinese group in the parade. Falun Gong practitioners brought the spirit of
"Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" to the parade.
The host of the parade introduced the band to the spectators: "This is a
band consisting of 200 Falun Gong practitioners from all walks of life. They are
trying to spread traditional Chinese music and culture."
After the parade, practitioners assembled at Thompson Center. They played
"Falun Dafa is good" and gave thanks to Master.
