Tibetan Uprising Day, 10 March 2010
Chinese Consulate, Los Angeles, CA
 Tibetans
and Tibetan human rights supporters gathered in front of the Chinese
Consulate on 10 March 2010 to commemorate the 51st Anniversary of Tibetan
Uprising Day on March 10th 1959 when the Chinese communist invaded Tibet
illegally, occupying them ever since. |
 As
China gains more economic power, they are less worried about human rights
and basic freedom for its own people and to the Tibetans. Freedom loving
people all around the world will join to voice their concern and share their
support for Tibet and human rights in Tibet. |
 Some
members of the Dharma Center showed up to lend their support to Tibetans in
Tibet and anywhere, a greatly appreciated gesture. |
 People
from all walks of Los Angeles showed their solidarity for Tibet. |
 Chog
read the March 10 statements from the Dalai Lama to the crowd of supporters. |
 Tenzing
emphasized that the Dalai Lama is not a separatist calling for an
independent Tibet, but rather, wants to work with China to stop human rights
abuses and increase Tibetan autonomy within their borders. |
 Night
time in front of the Chinese Consulate. This event was covered by
