Tibetan Uprising

On the evening of May 14, the Tibetan People’s Uprising Movement held an informational session about the March to Tibet in Dharamsala. The Presidents briefed the audience on the current location of the March and how much further was left to the border. The multimedia presentation included two documentaries on the March, entitled “March to Tibet” and “A Marcher’s Journey Home”, and a slide show presentation of the international Tibetan uprising with photos of protests around the world and inside Tibet.

This evening, the Tibetan People’s Uprising Movement has organized a candlelight vigil in Dharamsala, to express the people’s deep grief and concern for the victims of the recent earthquake in Tibet and China, and the cyclone in Myanmar. This will be followed by a mass lighting of butter lamps as a prayer for those who have been killed and those who continue to suffer because of these natural disasters.
