End Forced Organ Harvesting Rotary Satellite Club, in partnership with Doctors Against Forced Organ Harvesting, (DAFOH.org), and the Greater Philadelphia Falun Dafa Association (GPFDA.org), held a movie screening of “State Organs” in Philadelphia, PA. 82 people registered for the screening, with six check-ins and eight walk-ins. Six orders were cancelled before the screening. The library was closed to the public due to an employee not being able to make it in that day. Those who came for the screening needed to identify that they were there for the screening and then they were allowed in.A power outage occurred when the film was set to begin. The moderator was able to use her slides to introduce the topic and panelists were brought in to start a discussion while the audience waited for the power to return. An extension cord was used to connect the television monitor to the circuit that still had power and the film began about 50 minutes after the film after its originally scheduled time. One or two people left while waiting for the film to start. Those who stayed were quite moved by the film and even clapped at the end! Panelists were brought back in after the film ended. The audience was very engaged during the panel discussion and asked many questions regarding how this could be happening and what they could do to help.Media Coverage
