SAN LEANDRO, Calif.—Dressed in yellow and standing six feet apart, Falun Dafa practitioners in the San Francisco Bay Area commemorated July 20 differently this year.
Normally, practitioners of the Chinese meditation discipline known as Falun Dafa (also called Falun Gong) hold a parade on or around July 20, the anniversary of the day in 1999 when the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) began to violently persecute Falun Dafa.
