Yin Xuan and Deng Hongcheng Win the 2021 IFCSS "Spirit of Freedom Award" 

-- Edited by Yve of IPK Media

June 4, 2021 

  

  

IFCSS Award Dedication to Mr. Yin Xu'an 

June 2021 

  

Today, we present the "Spirit of Freedom Award" to Mr. Yin Xu'an, in recognition of his great sacrifices since 2007 from defending his own right to consciously participate in political reforms, and to convey the attention of the outside world to his extremely deteriorating health in prison. 

  

Yin Xu'an, born in August 1974 in Daye City, Hubei Province, has been arbitrarily detained, tortured, and inhumanely persecuted by the Chinese Communist authorities since November 2007 for petitioning, rights-defending and participating in protests.  He has been imprisoned no less than ten times and has been in administrative detention ten times, and arrested four times, and sentenced to re-education through labor twice.  Torture and ill-treatment have greatly devastated his health, suffering from the third stage of hypertension and many other diseases, but he has not retreated despite high pressure. 

  

In 2009, during the visit of US President Barack Obama to China, Yin went to the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau to apply for a demonstration, which resulted in re-education through labor by the Hubei authorities for 2 years , then his release was postponed for 3 months.  During the re-education through labor, he suffered multiple fainting and emergency rescue due to his third stage of hypertension and various other illnesses (including hepatitis B, cholecystitis, and stones, etc.). 

 

From July to October 2012, Yin was illegally detained by the authorities for 42 days for reporting and complaining against the local government in Hubei Province for illegal land acquisition, and against the Hubei Provincial Labor Reeducation Commission for illegal postponement and illegal elections.  Beginning in 2013, he began to actively intervene with supportive onlookers, in such as the Liu Ping case, the Xue Fushun case, the Zhao Fengsheng case, and the Zhengzhou 10 Gentlemen case.  In March 2015, he was detained for 53 days on suspicion of "intentionally leaking state secrets" for the publication of the "list of Hubei's Daye City Stability Maintenance Personnel in Beijing". 

  

In July 2015, Yin was arrested for supporting Wu Gan and other victims of the 709 case and was later sentenced to 3 years and 6 months in prison for the "crime of provoking troubles".  This time he was beaten and abused by prison guards and suffered tremendous physical and psychological damage.  Soon after he was released from prison at the end of 2018, he sought to sue the relevant detention centers and prisons, and was closely guarded by the authorities in Daye City.  On March 1, 2019, he was illegally detained for 18 days because he wanted to go to Beijing to file a complaint. 

 

On the eve of the 30th anniversary of June 4th in 2019, Yin was still actively gathering with colleagues from different places.  He photographed a license plate with the words 8964 in Xiamen on May 5, 2019 and posted it on Twitter.  On May 23, 2019, he was arrested by Daye Public Security.  He has been in custody for 2 years yet the verdict has not yet been pronounced despite the Daye Court opening a trial against him in January 2020.  At the end of 2020, according to his attorney, Yin Xu'an suffered several critical illnesses during his detention and was sent to the hospital many times for rescue, but the Daye Court refused to release him on medical parole. 

  

Like this year's other winner, Deng Hongcheng, Yin Xu'an realized social injustice from the infringement of his own personal rights, thus he expressed his dissatisfaction with the CCP's autocracy.  The anger and actions like them are the greatest motivation to end the CCP's authoritarian rule.  Today we honor them for trust and expectation in the power of the people.

IFCSS Award Dedication to Mr. Deng Hongcheng 

June 2021 

  

Today we present the "Spirit of Freedom Award" to Mr. Deng Hongcheng, not only to praise the heroes who resisted the tyranny of Chinese Communism Party (CCP), but more so to protest the violation of human rights and the rule of law by the CCP under the leadership of Xi Jinping. 

 

Deng Hongcheng, born in February 1967, is a native of Yueyang of Hunan Province.  He used to do business in Haikou and was dissatisfied with the systematic corruption in China.  He is committed to rights defending and changing the status quo to promote democracy in China.  In 2013, he moved to Shenzhen to engage in civic movement.  Arrested in November 2016, he was later sentenced to 12 years by the Chinese authorities as the group leader for "the crimes of subverting state power". 

  

Before the Shenzhen arrest in 2016, there were not many democrats who knew the name of Deng Hongcheng.  If they did know him, most of them were basically limited to Guangdong Province.  This is because Mr. Deng and his comrades clearly knew the cruel nature of the CCP, so they just quietly accumulate strength.  Because he did not participate in many public protests, some democracy activists even mistook him as someone who only said words but did nothing.  However, the democracy movement has highs and lows, and in the current harsh political environment, it is more pragmatic to carry out work such as enlightening the public and making alliances quietly.  Moreover, making democratic friends and spreading democratic ideas are also necessary for the establishment of a democratic China in the future, and it does not violate any current laws in China. 

  

Yet, Mr. Deng Hongcheng and his friends still underestimated the evilness of the CCP's dictatorship.  In November 2016, he and 13 friends, including a relative who was visiting him, were arrested by Shenzhen police.  Due to the secrecy of the arrests, many people were threatened not to openly disclose their relationship with the Deng Hongcheng case after they were released.  Therefore, it is not clear to the outside world as to how many people were arrested in this case. 

  

Deng Hongcheng and the detainees were subjected to severe anti-human torture, including beatings, binding, hanging, electric shock, starvation, sleep deprivation, and personal humiliation.  Mr. Shen Li once hit a wall and tried to commit suicide because he could not stand the torture, causing serious injuries to his cervical spine.  Others have also heard Deng Hongcheng's screams when he was tortured.  The Chinese authorities are so inhumane by labeling some outstanding citizens who have a sense of social responsibility and are dissatisfied with the Communist dictatorship as "counter-revolutionary cliques" trying to overthrow the Communist Party through violent revolution, so as to ask their master Xi Jinping for credit. 

 

After being tortured, Deng Hongcheng did not shirk responsibility, but took all the accusations on himself, and was finally sentenced to 12 years in prison. 

  

Deng Hongcheng was not a hero at the beginning.  He was just a little bold and treated friends well.  He tried his best to take in and take care the low-level human rights defenders who went to Shenzhen to make a living.  Even before he was arrested, some people ridiculed him for being "coward".  But the CCP's iron prison turned him into a strong hero and a famous political prisoner with a sentence even longer that Liu Xiaobo. 

 

From Deng Hongcheng, we can see the dissatisfaction and anger of the Chinese people living at the bottom of the society under the CCP's dictatorship.  They are the magma that makes the CCP sit in the crater.  Once on the day when the anger of the Chinese people erupts, Xi Jinping's contrarian dictatorship will be wiped out.

尹旭安、邓洪成获得 2021年度全美学自联"自由精神奖"

--光传媒编辑Yve

2021年6月4日

 

 

尹旭安颁奖词

 

 

今天我们把"自由精神奖"颁给尹旭安先生,是为表彰他自2007年来从维护自身权益转变为自觉投身政治变革而付出的巨大牺牲,传递外界对他狱中极度恶化健康状况的关注。

 

尹旭安,1974年8月出生,湖北省大冶市人,自2007年11月以来因上访维权和参与抗争而长期受当局任意拘禁、酷刑、不人道迫害,被关黑监狱不下十次,行政拘留十次,刑拘四次,判刑或劳教两次。酷刑虐待极大摧残了他的身体,患上高血压三期及多种其它疾病,但他面对高压奋不顾身毫不畏缩。

 

2009年,在美国时任总统奥巴马访华期间,曾因到北京市公安局治安总队申请游行示威而被湖北当局劳教2年,并延期释放3个月。劳教期间,曾因身患高血压三期及多种其它疾病(如乙肝、胆囊炎及结石等)而多次晕倒和急救。

 

2012年7月-10月,曾因举报和起诉湖北省当地政府非法征用土地、起诉湖北省劳教委非法延期及非法选举等问题,而遭当局非法拘禁42天。2013年始,开始积极介入声援围观行动,如刘萍案、薛福顺事件、赵枫生案、郑州十君子案等。2015年3月因公布"湖北大冶市驻京维稳人员名单"而被以涉嫌"故意泄露国家机密"关押53天。

 

2015年7月因声援吴淦等709案受害者而被抓,后以寻衅滋事罪判刑3年6个月。此次坐牢遭狱警殴打虐待,身心伤害巨大,2018年底出狱后不久就寻求控告相关看守所、监狱而被大冶当局严密看管,2019年3月1号因欲去北京控告而被非法拘禁、行政拘留18天。

 

2019年六四三十周年前夕,他仍积极与各地同道聚会。2019年5月5日在厦门拍摄有8964字样的车牌并发布在推特上,2019年5月23日因此被大冶公安抓走。现已被羁押2年,虽然早在2020年1月大冶法院就已开庭审理他的寻衅滋事案,但至今仍未宣判。2020年底据他的代理律师说尹旭安在押期间多次出现病危情形并多次送医院抢救,但大冶法院拒绝他取保就医。

 

尹旭安和今年另一位得奖者邓洪成一样是从自身权益被侵犯意识到社会不公,进而表达对中共专制的不满。像他们这样的愤怒和行动正是结束中共专制统治的最大动力,我们今天表彰他们,就是对人民的力量的信任和期待。

邓洪成颁奖词

 

 

今天我们把"自由精神奖"颁给邓洪成先生,既是对国内反抗共产暴政的英雄的赞颂,更是对习近平领导下的中共对践踏人权和法治的抗议。

 

邓洪成,1967年2月生,湖南岳阳人,曾在海口经商,目睹体制腐败黑洞而不满,致力维权改变现状促进中国民主,2013年搬至深圳从事公民运动。2016年11月被捕,后被当局作为颠覆国家政权罪集团首犯被判12年。

 

2016年深圳大抓捕之前,知道邓洪成名字的民主人士并不多,基本局限于广东省。这是因为邓洪成先生和他的战友们清楚地知道中共的残酷本性,所以他们只是默默地积蓄力量。正因为他参加公共抗议活动不多,所以有些民运人士将其误认为只说不练的"口炮党。"但是民运有高潮和低潮,在目前万木肃杀的严酷政治环境下,静悄悄地进行启发民众,横向联合等工作是更加务实的。而且广交民主朋友,传播民主理念也是对于将来建立民主中国所必须的,也是不违反中国目前任何法律的。

 

邓洪成先生和他的朋友们还是低估了中共专政机关的邪恶性,在2016年11月他和十三位朋友包括一位探访他的亲戚都被深圳公安抓捕。由于抓捕的秘密性,很多人被释放后受到威胁不敢公开和邓洪成案的关系,所以此案到底牵连多少人被抓外界还不清楚。

 

邓洪成和一起被拘捕的人普遍受到了严厉的反人类酷刑,包括殴打,捆绑,吊打,电击,饥饿,不许睡觉,以及侮辱人格的羞辱。沈力因为受不了酷刑曾撞墙自杀使颈椎严重受伤。其他人也听到过邓洪成受刑时的惨叫。当局如此毫无人性,只是为了把一些有社会责任感因而对共产专制不满的优秀公民打成试图通过暴力革命推翻共产党的"反革命集团",从而好向他们的主子习近平邀功请赏。

 

邓洪成受尽酷刑之后并没有推脱责任,而是把所有的指控都包揽到自己身上,最后被判刑12年。

 

邓洪成一开始并不是英雄,仅仅是有点江湖豪爽气质,对于来深圳讨生活的底层维权人士尽量收留。甚至他被抓前还有人讥讽他"胆小怕事"。但是中共的铁狱把他变成了铁骨铮铮的英雄,从一个江湖人士成为判刑超过刘晓波的著名政治犯。

 

从邓洪成身上,我们看到底层民众对中共专制独裁统治的不满和愤怒,他们是使得中共坐在火山口的岩浆。一旦有一天人民的愤怒爆发出来,习共的逆势独裁就会灰飞烟灭。
