By a practitioner from Michigan
(Clearwisdom.net) The Annual Monroe County Fair Parade was held in Monroe
County, Michigan on July 30, 2006. Falun Gong practitioners attended the parade
for the first time this year, and their performance was very welcome. The parade started at 1:00 pm. Practitioners performed an exercise
demonstration, waist drum and celestial maiden dance. Practitioners passed out a
lot of materials to spectators along the 2-mile parade. Citizens learned the
beauty of Falun Gong and brutal persecution by the Chinese Communist Party,
especially the CCP's crime of harvesting organs from living people. Taking picture with the governor (center) Ms. Jennifer Granholm, the governor of Michigan, came to the parade too. When
she saw practitioners, she smiled: "You are here too. I am so glad to see
you here." The governor has been a long-time friend of practitioners'.
Three years ago, she announced that every May 13 from 2003 on will be Falun Dafa
Day in Michigan. The governor was very happy to accept a yellow T-shirt and
materials from practitioners. She also had a photo taken with practitioners.
