Uncompromised Courage
Bathed in a warm, golden light that represents resilient faith is Chengjun Liu, shortly before his death by torture in a Chinese prison. Ghastly images animate the floor, suggesting the horrors he endured in captivity as a prisoner of conscience. Liu was arrested in March of 2002 for his part in a defiant television broadcast that exposed human rights violations against Falun Dafa and the culpability of government officials.
