Summary
You may have recently noticed a familiar blitz campaign in your neighborhood, advertising a cultural extravaganza of art, dance and music. For many years I have wanted to dive into Shen Yun and the Falun Gong cult behind it, and was inspired by recent events to finally tell their story. Since the late nineties, the Chinese Communist Party and Falun Gong have been on a campaign to destroy the other, using cult tactics and crimes against humanity to attack and defame. So how did it start and where are they now?
