Jan. 28, 2023 | By a Falun Dafa practitioner in the French Caribbean Island of Guadeloupe
(Minghui.org) A transatlantic sailing race called the Route du Rhum takes place every four years in November, with racers starting in Saint-Malo, France, and finishing in Pointe-à-Pitre, Guadeloupe, covering a total of 3,543 nautical miles (6,562 kilometers).
People were gathered in Pointe-à-Pitre in November to celebrate the arrival of the Route Du Rhum racers. The winner arrived on November 16, 2022, almost seven full days after setting sail from France. Exhibitions were held during the race at Place de la Victoire, Memorial ACTe, Bergevin, and other coastal districts.
Practitioners from Guadeloupe introduced Falun Dafa at the Place de la Victoire on November 11, 2022. The weather was bright and clear and many locals and tourists were strolling around. The practitioners’ booth was located in the middle of the exhibition, and many people learned about Falun Dafa. Several practitioners also distributed truth-clarification flyers on the streets.
A Chinese couple and their child passed by the Falun Dafa booth. A practitioner put his two palms together in his, and said, “Falun Dafa is good.” The Chinese lady greeted him back, smiled, and put her two palms together.
Practitioners demonstrated Falun Dafa’s five sets of exercises and drew attention to the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) ongoing persecution. A group of people learned to practice the exercises on the spot.
Practitioners also held truth-clarification activities in Basse-Terre and Rue Baudot on November 17 and 18, 2022.
One Scottish couple who came to Guadeloupe for the Route du Rhum stopped by the booth. The lady said she had heard about the CCP’s persecution of Falun Dafa before, including the forced live organ harvesting.
After a practitioner clarified the truth to an eye doctor, the eye doctor stated that most of the corneas transplanted into patients are obtained from China. He is now aware of the live organ harvesting atrocities after talking to practitioners.
Firmine Richard, a French actress, told practitioners that she had heard about Falun Dafa before, and asked if the persecution was still happening.
A passerby came to the Falun Dafa booth and expressed her interest in learning the practice. She left after practicing the first standing exercise but came back again later. She told practitioners that she felt a warm current circulating in her back, and she felt very relaxed.
Practitioners introduced Falun Dafa and clarified the truth to many passersby in Basse-Terre during the evening activities. Information about Falun Dafa was played through speakers and continued through the night.
Practitioners were invited to participate in an activity held on Rue Raspail in Pointe-à-Pitre’s city center. They introduced Falun Dafa to passersby.
Practitioners also went to a school to teach students and teachers how to practice the Falun Dafa exercises on November 22, 2022.
Local practitioners took the opportunity of the Route de Rhum sailing race to clarify the truth and expose the CCP’s atrocities to locals and overseas tourists. Their series of activities were all well-received.

Editor’s Note: Dear readers, do you know that Falun Dafa, originally from China, is currently practiced by people in over 100 countries? But in China, since Jul. 20, 1999, Falun Gong is defamed, slandered and persecuted due to the Chinese Communist Party’s fear of Falun Gong’s rapidly growing popularity. Jiang Zemin, former head of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), perceived the spiritual discipline’s growing popularity as a threat to the CCP’s atheistic ideology.
