Freedom Is Fundamental
The July 19 weekend marks the end of China's fourth year of severe crimes against humanity in its persecution of the spiritual group Falun Gong, whose teachings are based in truthfulness, compassion and tolerance. In the spirit of freedom and humanity, join an array of international artists at Light & Peace, a free concert of music, drama and dance on Saturday, July 19, from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. A candlelight vigil under the stars will be part of the event at the Capitol Reflection Pool (just off Third Street on the Mall in front of the Capitol).

DC Metro Action is published by Michael Schlesinger, a 32-year veteran of electoral and issue organizing who is committed to social justice and to increasing participation in the political process.
