The Tibetans in Nepal


As I was walking home the other night, I came across this quiet and peaceful Tibetan gathering. There were hundreds of candles, families singing, photos of people missing, and a few small "Free Tibet" flags in sight. The Tibetans are terrified to make any real movement, seeing hundreds have been detained and sent to jail by the Maoist army who roam the neighborhood. I witnessed the gathering until a man with a loudspeaker came. Within minutes, everyone had dispersed.
