Members of Tianguo Marching Band Express Joy at World Falun Dafa Day Parade

Thousands of Falun Dafa practitioners in bright yellow and blue jackets gathered for a parade in the heart of Manhattan on May 10 in celebration of World Falun Dafa Day. Falun Dafa is a traditional Chinese spiritual practice based on the principles of truthfulness, compassion, and forbearance. Leading the parade was the Tianguo Marching Band, comprised entirely of Falun Dafa practitioners. Members reflected on why they decided to join in the festivities and on their message to the world.
