Anastasia Lin (林耶凡)

Anastasia Lin is both an accomplished actress and a strong advocate for human rights of persecuted people living in People’s Republic of China, especially Falun Gong practitioners, like herself. She won the Miss World Canada title but was denied participation in the international final contest in Beijing because she has publicly criticized China's brutal repression of  Falun Gong.

Faced with that cruel dilemma, Anastasia has remained loyal to the principles of Falun Gong, and their desperate need for international condemnation that might soften China's brutal practices – practices that even include the gruesome harvesting of organs for sale from live Falun Gong prisoners.

Anastasia Lin has come to symbolize, in a very public way, that we can be brave and stand up to the dictators of Beijing and, at the same time, call the world's attention to their cruelty.  Initiatives for China/Citizen Power for China is pleased to honor Anastasia Lin with Citizen Power Award.
