For 25 years, the New York Times’ coverage of Falun Gong has significantly and irresponsibly distorted the nature of the practice and the scope of the persecution. This has wide-ranging implications for people in China and around the world. Full Report:

Since the persecution started in 1999, Falun Gong practitioners have raised awareness through Samizdat-like underground printing sites. They deliver homemade flyers door to door across the country to expose gov’t lies and abuses, at great risk of harm if caught. #21YearsTooLong
