(Clearwisdom.net), An Independence Day celebration was held at the University of Delaware in Newark, Delaware on July 4, 2006. Before the fireworks show, there were many booths including restaurants and election groups. Country music singers performed onstage. It was busy and noisy.

Practitioners distributed truth-clarification materials and offered free teaching of the exercises. They also collected signatures calling for an end to the persecution, especially organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners.

In the noisy environment, the peaceful and serene exercise demonstration caught the attention of many people. Many of them came forward to learn the exercises. A lady working in an US senator's office told a practitioner, "I feel energy attracts me and directs me here. I feel very comfortable here." After reading a flyer, she left her phone number to attend the workshop.

Such a peaceful and serene practice following "Truth-Compassion-Tolerance" is persecuted in China. CCP even harvests organs from living Falun Gong practitioners. People were shocked at CCP's atrocities and signed a petition calling for an end of the persecution. A gentleman running for office told a practitioner, "I saw the resolution condemning CCP's organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners. I strongly support this resolution and will forever."
