(Clearwisdom.net) On July 18, 2009, Falun Gong practitioners in Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany, held a rally near Kennedy Square in Essen City, peacefully protesting the ten-year brutal persecution of Falun Gong by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
The series of activities included an anti-torture exhibit, a Falun Gong exercise demonstration, and a signature collection to condemn the persecution.
