When three dozen Westerners suddenly and peacefully appeared on Tiananmen Square with a simple message 16 years ago, the story made media headlines worldwide.

On the sunny afternoon of November 20, 2001, 36 Westerners from 12 countries met at the Tiananmen Square – without knowing each other’s names, they gathered for a group photo and waited for the cue to begin…
It is a story of their unexpected triumph in drawing international attention to the detention, torture and often deaths of the tens of thousands who had come before them to raise a banner on Tiananmen Square and proclaim “Falun Dafa is Good.”

Canadian Zenon Dolynyckyj, reflecting on his decision to join the group, said, “There was something much larger than me, that went beyond me, my personal life, and the scope of one individual.”
Dolnyckyj had a second banner strapped to his leg in case the main banner didn’t make it to its place on the square. While the others were getting pushed, pulled, and dragged into the circle of police vans, he broke free, pulling the banner out and yelling “Falun Dafa Hao!” (“Falun Dafa is Good!”).
