Tuidang is a loose social movement that aims to awaken the conscience and uplift morality in China. It highlights the freedom to think and choose as the cornerstone for the foundation of an open society. In China today, the minds and actions of the people are manipulated and controlled by the communist regime through violence, censorship and propaganda. To renounce the CCP in China today means to courageously reclaim free thought and the power of critical thinking. Tuidang is empowering the common Chinese people to make choices for themselves. The Tuidang Center is a 501(c)(3) located in Flushing, NY with major centers in the US, Canada, Europe, Asia as well as inside China.
