(Minghui.org) Falun Gong practitioners held an activity called the "Great Wall of Truth" in Ashfield, a popular gathering places for Chinese people, on June 22, 2014. They held banners and stood side-by-side on the sidewalk to form a human "Great Wall of Truth" to raise awareness about the persecution taking place in China, in particular the state-sanctioned forced organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners.
More than 60 Chinese people quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations during the more than three-hour event, and more than a hundred Westerners signed a petition calling for an end to the CCP's systematic forced organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners.

Chinese People Quit the CCP after Understanding the Facts
A woman in her 50s from Chongqing, China, who was in Australia visiting her son, told a volunteer from the Quit the CCP Service Center that in China she often visited Minghui.org and the Epoch Times websites using software that could circumvent the Internet blockade.
“Falun Gong is a wonderful cultivation group. I would definitely practice Falun Gong if I were outside of China,” she said. Before leaving, she asked the volunteer to help her and her son quit the CCP organizations.
Another woman who is a local real estate agent talked with a volunteer for a long time. When she said that she was a Christian, the volunteer told her that it is unacceptable for her to believe in god and the CCP at the same time, because the latter is atheism. The agent saw her point and agreed to quit the CCP organizations with her real name.
A woman from Beijing who came to visit her child walked up to a volunteer and asked what the event was about. After she learned that Falun Gong practitioners were raising awareness about the CCP's atrocity of forced organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners, she lowered her voice and told the volunteer that she knew that Falun Gong practitioners in Beijing were being arrested, detained and persecuted.
After the volunteer explained to her about the CCP's persecution of the practice in detail, the woman readily quit the CCP and its affiliated organizations.
Australian People Pray for the Persecuted Chinese
People sign the petition to support the efforts to stop the CCP's state-sanctioned forced organ harvesting crime.
An elderly Australian man made a special point to walk up to Falun Gong practitioners. He said that he had signed the petition, and he supported the practitioners' efforts to end the persecution.
"What you're doing is right, the Communist Party is evil," he said. “ I have been praying for those persecuted Chinese.”
