(Clearwisdom.net) After enduring 18 months of torture--including having his hands and feet bound behind him so tightly his spine nearly snapped--Gang Chen knew he was fortunate to escape his native China alive. Then he began hearing chilling tales about what the forced-labor camps are allegedly doing to other practitioners of the banned exercise/meditation cultivation practice Falun Gong. Namely, murdering them for their kidneys, livers and corneas, which are then transplanted, often into ailing foreigners, for profit.
"I didn't feel luckier when I heard this," says Chen, a 35-year-old Sicklerville, NJ, musician who got out of a Beijing camp in 2001. "I felt more worried for Falun Gong practitioners still over there."
Perhaps the worst aspect of the eight years of Falun Gong followers' persecution is that nobody seems to hear their pleas for help. You can help rectify this by listening to former Canadian Secretary of State David Kilgour and international human rights lawyer David Matas discuss their extensive report, Bloody Harvest, which lends credence to the ghastly rumors.
"The report concludes that this is really happening," says Temple doctoral candidate and Falun Gong practitioner Sharif Roach, who helped organize the forum. "There has to be an international outcry. There's no time to waste."
