New York Falun Gong practitioners held a parade in Flushing, the heart of the Chinese community, at noon on April 21st (Sunday) to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the peaceful appeal at Zhongnanhai on “4.25”. They called on the world to unite and stop the Chinese Communist Party’s persecution and expressed support for the nearly 430 million Chinese people who have withdrawn from the Communist Party and its affiliates, as part of the “End CCP” movement.
The peaceful parade drew attention to the ongoing human rights abuses in China and the need for international intervention to address the atrocities carried out by the Chinese Communist Party. Falun Gong practitioners emphasized the importance of standing in solidarity with those who have suffered under the regime’s oppressive policies and advocated for justice and freedom for all Chinese citizens.
Throughout the parade, participants carried banners and signs with messages calling for an end to the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China and urging the international community to take action in holding the Chinese authorities accountable for their human rights violations. The parade served as a platform for raising awareness about the plight of those persecuted for their beliefs and for promoting global solidarity in condemning the Communist Party’s oppressive tactics.
The 25th anniversary of the peaceful appeal at Zhongnanhai marked a significant moment for Falun Gong practitioners worldwide, as they reflected on the courage and determination shown by those who peacefully petitioned the Chinese government for justice and freedom. The commemorative event served as a reminder of the ongoing struggle against persecution and the resilience of those who continue to advocate for human rights and religious freedom in China.
The “End CCP” movement has gained momentum in recent years, with millions of Chinese citizens renouncing their ties to the Communist Party and its affiliated organizations in a bold expression of dissent against the Party’s authoritarian rule. The movement represents a growing resistance to the Party’s oppressive policies and a demand for greater accountability and transparency in governance.
As Falun Gong practitioners and supporters gathered in Flushing to mark the 25th anniversary of the historic appeal at Zhongnanhai, they underscored the importance of upholding fundamental rights and freedoms for all individuals, regardless of their beliefs or affiliations. The parade served as a poignant reminder of the ongoing struggle for justice and dignity in China and the collective effort to bring about positive change in the face of adversity.
