(Clearwisdom.net) On the morning of September 19, 2004, a Central America Independence Day parade was held in Los Angeles. Over 200 groups participated in this parade, including major governmental officials in the Los Angeles area, and governmental representative organizations from Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama. Along the 3 mile long route was a crowd of Los Angeles residents from Central America estimated at more than 100,000.
Practitioners from Los Angeles and San Diego participated in this parade and were welcomed. The Spanish speaking audience who were generally not reached in our truth-clarification efforts had a good chance to get to know and understand the grace of Dafa. During the parade, some greeted the practitioners with Heshi. Reporters from quite a few TV stations took footage of practitioners' float and waist drum performance.
