Falun Gong in Washington DC

I've said before that walking around DC is a learning experience. This is another event/protest that took place a few weeks ago.

Falun Gong is a spiritual practice/religion that came into the spotlight in the 90s when practitioners protested Chinese government actions. It has been brutally oppressed in China since then.

I won't try to go into a whole explanation. You can check out the Wikipedia entry here if you are interested.
