KYW NewsradioLocal Protest Spotlights Falun Gong Accusations
by KYW's Karin PhillipsA small crowd gathered on Independence Mall on Thursday to protest recent, unsubstantiated reports that the Chinese government is harvesting organs from political prisoners.
"Someone will listen, someone is listening, more people will listen."
Crystal is a physician at a local Philadelphia hospital and a practioner of Falun Gong, an exercise and meditation ritual that's been banned by the Chinese government.
Since early March, reports have been coming out of China that medical doctors, sanctioned by the Chinese government, have been harvesting organs from live Falun Gong practioners imprisoned in concentration camps throughout China.
Standing in front of a bloody reenactment of an organ harvesting operation, Crystal says the world has to believe and to help:
"We want to send a delegation to China -- an independent, third-party investigation. We want the Chinese government to open all hospitals, prisons, labor camps."
