PHILADELPHIA – On the afternoon of April 12, a sizable crowd gathered in Philadelphia’s Chinatown, for a rally in support of 52 million Chinese people withdrawing from the Chinese Communist Party and its affiliated organizations. Some people traveled from neighboring suburbs. Of those present, there were quite a few Chinese people who decided to withdraw from the CCP on the spot.

Almost Everyone in the Fuzhou Chinese Association has Withdrawn

Mr. Zheng is a 41-year-old Chinese man from Fuzhou City, the capital of Fujian Province. He used his real name to withdraw from the CCP. When he saw exhibits of the CCP’s extensive crimes, including organ harvesting from Falun Gong practitioners, he said, “I know all about these crimes of organ harvesting! The CCP is too evil!” He had been persecuted in China because he and his wife had a second child. Mr. Zheng said that many people from Fuzhou have withdrawn from the CCP. “If it weren’t for issues with the CCP, why would anyone want to leave his or her own homeland to go live in a foreign country? Everyone knows why, even though they may not talk about it. A lot of people are reading The Epoch Times. The Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party is completely true. Now when we [those from Fuzhou] get together, we often ask each other when we withdrew from the CCP.” A passer-by said that almost everyone in the Fuzhou Chinese Association has withdrawn from the CCP.

A Heartfelt Wish since Sixth Grade

Mr. Lei is from Taishan, Guangdong Province. He withdrew from the CCP on the spot, using his real name. In addition, he inquired about helping his family and friends in Mainland China to withdraw from the CCP, as well.

About 20 years ago, when he was in the 6th grade, the Tiananmen Square Massacre occurred. He and his classmates all wanted to express their dissatisfaction and resistance towards the CCP. Their teachers however, did not allow them to say anything. They were forced to hide their anger.

Many years later, and after Mr. Lei had left China, he read the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, and heard the news about a large number of Chinese people withdrawing from the CCP. Mr. Lei expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to withdraw from the CCP in Chinatown. He said that it had been a long-held wish of his to quit the CCP, and that he was overjoyed that it had finally come true.

Currently, on a daily basis, approximately 50,000 people are withdrawing from the CCP and its affiliated organizations. The total number of withdrawals to date has reached 52 million.
