2009 March 10 Roundup

On March 10, Tibetans and supporters around the world took to the streets and the halls of political power to protest China’s extreme repression in Tibet and commemorate the 50th anniversary of the 1959 Tibetan National Uprising when tens of thousands of Tibetans rose up against Chinese rule.

Below are photos and videos from some of the March 10th protests and lobbying initiatives held around the world. More images are available on SFT HQ’s flickr page, including photos from: New Zealand, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Australia, Mexico, Germany, Spain and more.
