Though dwarfed by Manhattan’s skyline and rained upon, a young girl shows conviction beyond her years. Her eyes penetrate the gray landscape, giving an almost moral intensity to the plea expressed on her placard. The girl pictured here and many others braved New York City’s elements in a remarkable year-long campaign to raise awareness of the torture and murder of China’s Falun Gong practitioners. Thousands traveled to the city from around the world, often at great personal cost, to support the effort.
為了呼籲世人對迫害的關注,法輪功學員在紐約曼哈頓長期以酷刑展、發傳單和舉展板的方式講述迫害真相。畫中的小女孩在雨中久久站著,那雙大眼睛發岀純真的呼喚,讓更多人知道真相,喚起世人的良知,幫助早日停止迫害。
