Commemoration the sixth anniversary of the dedication of the Victims of Communism Memorial
Dear Friend,
On Wednesday morning, June 12, 2013, the
Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation will commemorate the sixth
anniversary of the dedication of the Victims of Communism Memorial to
the more than one hundred million victims of communism.
Event
activities will commence at 10:00 AM at the intersection of
Massachusetts Ave., NW, New Jersey Ave., NW, and G Street, NW (two
blocks from Union Station and within view of the U.S. Capitol). There
will follow a panel discussion at the Heritage Foundation, 214
Massachusetts Ave. NE, starting at 12 noon.
Yang Jianli, Ph. D.,
Founder and President of Initiatives for China, will be awarded the 2013
Truman-Reagan Medal of Freedom at the commemoration. The medal is
awarded to those who have distinguished themselves in opposing communism
and tyranny and advancing freedom and democracy. Dr. Yang survived the
1989 massacre at Tienanmen Square and was a prisoner of conscience in
China from 2002-2007. The mission of Initiatives for China is "a
peaceful transition to democratic governance in China."
Featured speakers at the commemoration will include Mrs. Annette Lantos, widow of the late Rep. Tom Lantos of California.
