On September 1 2003, Kansas Falun Dafa practitioners participated in the Labour Day Parade sponsored by the Labour Union in Topeka, the capital of Kansas.


In the early morning, Dafa practitioners arrived at the parade site. We decorated a float and gave out Dafa materials to every organisation that came to participate in the parade. Two Western practitioners delivered materials about Dafa and the persecution to the Governor and Labour union officials, who were holding a rally in front of the State Capitol.
During the parade, wherever our float passed by, the peaceful and serene Dafa music and the practitioners' elegant and gentle exercise demonstration were greeted warmly by the onlookers. Many people asked to learn the Falun Gong exercises. One woman tracked us down after the parade and asked for our contact information.
