520 |a Nearly ten years ago on 25 April 1999, the world was introduced to a new religious movement with a worldwide following reportedly numbering in the millions. On that spring day, 10,000 to 16,000 followers of a spiritual movement named Falun Gong [FLG] or "Law Wheel Cultivation" peacefully assembled outside Zhongnanhai, the Chinese Communist Party’s [hereafter CCP] headquarters in the heart of Beijing. The demonstrators included people of all ages from all walks of life who had come from across China to ask that their government recognize their faith and lift the ban on its publications. From dawn until late into the night, those present sat in silent protest, eight-deep on the sidewalk, many clutching a blue book—one of FLG’s publications.

The demonstration was a political earthquake that shook the People’s Republic of China [PRC] with repercussions that persist to this day. In this paper I provide an updated overview of the rise of this movement and consider its most recent activities
