主播：台灣也舉辦了法輪功（又稱法輪大法）藝術家畫展。現在中共正在中國大陸迫害法輪功，把法輪功學員送進勞教所進行酷刑。這次畫展的目的，是要藉由畫中真實的故事，告訴人們現在中國正在發生的事情。
STORY: [Jin-hua Zhang, Taiwan Falun Dafa Association]:
“When I look at those paintings I feel very touched, I’m almost crying, but I tell myself, ‘don’t cry,’ what you should do is not just crying, you should let people know that this persecution is happening now in mainland China.”
