Friends of Falun Gong concluded its third annual poetry contest, which attracted over 150 participants from around the globe. The contest was co-hosted by the Society of Classical Poets, an online journal dedicated to the revival of traditional English poetry.
Friends of Falun Gong is an American nonprofit organization formed by citizens concerned about the Chinese communist regime’s treatment of Falun Gong practitioners. Since 1999, the Chinese regime has been systematically incarcerating Falun Gong meditators without trial; in prison, they are subjected to various means of torture to renounce their faith. Organs harvested from unwilling inmates (Falun Gong and other prisoners of conscience) have been found to be promoted and sold openly on the transplant market.
