Song for David Kilgour

When you are a peaceful group labelled a cult by the Chinese Communist Party, and face the full force of its propaganda machine and violent suppression, it can be hard to find a sympathetic ear.

David Kilgour was exactly that for Falun Gong, and along with David Mattas and Ethan Gutmann, fought to expose the Human Rights abuses against them for over a decade. His passing today is a sad loss to the world.
