Declaration: "In the name of peace I am fasting for two days to remind myself of the gifts of freedom that are all too often taken for granted. If the fast of one, one hundred, or one thousand brings these issues before governments not so easy to excuse the government of China, then the nourishment provided by the fast will be far sweeter than that provided by all the food on earth."
