Falun Gong (also known as Falun Dafa) is a practice involving meditation, exercises, and the cultivation of Truthfulness, Compassion, and Tolerance within oneself. Marchers in this parade/protest were passing out literature about the practice itself and about some of the reported problems of persecution, especially that which is occurring in China.
