在當前全球地緣政治動盪、集權擴張的浪潮下，民間力量的覺醒與行動，正成為撼動獨裁體制最堅韌的基石。2026年9月下旬，適逢中共領導人習近平抵達華盛頓特區對美國進行國事訪問，一群懷抱著對自由民主執著追求的抗議者，完成了一場橫跨全美、從太平洋沿岸直達美國政治心臟華盛頓特區的萬里奔襲行動，向獨裁政權表達最為強烈的抗議。這不僅是一次行動的記錄，更是一次對自由意志與民間抗爭力量的深刻體現。

一、 橫跨全美：跨越三千英里的萬里長征2026年9月20日上午，行動團隊一行5人駕駛私家車從洛杉磯出發，於當晚順利抵達拉斯維加斯；21日下午，團隊在拉斯維加斯擴充至一行7人，並換乘了一輛空間更為寬敞、頂部加裝行李架的銀灰色本田 Odyssey（Honda Odyssey）廂型車，正式踏上了橫跨美國大陸前往華盛頓特區的征程。從西海岸的陽光到中西部的平原，團隊橫跨無數州界。在堪薩斯州的歷史標記牌（Kansas Historical Marker）前、在深夜無人的公路加油站旁、在途經的休息站裡，隊員們身著印有「END CCP」與「廢除中共一黨專制，建立保障人權的憲政共和新中國」等標語的白色宣傳衫，留下了一幕幕堅毅的身影。這段經歷不僅是體力與意志力的極限考驗，更是將抗爭聲浪從地方推向全國的公路拉力宣示。經過連續數十個小時的高速駕駛與輪流交替，一行人於23日下午順利到達華盛頓DC。

二、 華府夜幕與白宮前喊話：抗擊「跨國鎮壓」與聲浪穿透白宮23日下午，習近平專機抵達華盛頓。到達華府當晚，團隊未作任何休整，便直接趕赴習近平入住的賓館附近展開夜間抗議。在華府夜色中，隊員們高舉「共產黨下台」、「習近平滾出去」等標語，拉起「結束中共, END CCP !」與「中國民主人權聯盟（CDHRA）」等巨大藍色橫幅，拉開了全天候抗爭的序幕。

24日習近平在白宮與美方進行國事會談期間，白宮外圍的抗議聲勢達到頂峰。抗議者們圍繞賓夕法尼亞大道陣勢全開，「Xi Jinping has got to go!」與「Shame on Xi Jinping!」的現場吶喊聲響徹雲霄。據美聯社（AP）、VOA 及 RFA 等現場媒體報導，震撼的高分貝抗議聲浪已直接穿透牆體，傳入白宮內部及會談區域（within earshot of White House visit）。綜合各大國際媒體與現場組織的報導，本次抗議呈現出五大極為顯著的核心訴求與特色：嚴正抗擊「7-1惡法」與中共跨國鎮壓（重中之重）：抗議現場將揭露與抵制中共「跨國鎮壓（Transnational Repression）」列為最核心的焦點。抗議群眾猛烈聲討中共於今年7月1日施行的《民族團結進步促進法》，指出該法第63條公然主張域外適用，企圖將中共的威脅與管控延伸至全球，是全世界首部將「跨國鎮壓法制化」的惡法。美聯社與自由亞洲電台等媒體特別記錄，現場親共歡迎陣營試圖使用大型黑傘遮擋標語，甚至有背景不明人員近距離跟拍威脅抗議者及其牆內親友。抗議團體對此強烈譴責，並呼籲美國政府與國際社會嚴厲打擊中共在美的黑手與滲透勢力。抗議成員秉持和平理性原則，在警察協助維護秩序下捍衛了公開表達的權利。

宏觀體制轉型與反對同化政策：現場高呼「結束中共一黨專政」、「廢除中共專制，建立保障人權的憲政共和新中國」，將訴求從單純反對領導人個人提升至推動中國政治體制變革的高度。針對「7-1惡法」將文化消滅與同化政策法律化的企圖，抗議群眾要求立即廢除惡法。人權保障、停止活摘與釋放良心犯：現場許多抗議者舉起高智晟、王炳章、許志永、黎智英等良心犯與政治犯的照片，高呼「Human Rights in China!」與「FREE JIMMY LAI」，要求中共立即無條件釋放所有被非法關押、失蹤及遭受迫害的人士；同時，法輪功學員與人權團體高喊「停止活摘器官！（Stop Forced Organ Harvesting!）」及「停止宗教迫害」，嚴正揭露中共暴行。少數族群與台港自由：西藏社群高舉雪山獅子旗高喊「自由西藏（Free Tibet!）」，強烈抗議7-1惡法對藏人文化與寄宿學校的同化迫害；維吾爾社群手持東突厥斯坦旗幟揭露種族滅絕；香港團體高呼「光復香港，時代革命！（FREE HONG KONG!）」，台灣團體共同發聲並在媒體發表「正告習近平：民主台灣，不容武力顛覆」等整版聲明，展現跨族群抵抗暴政的強烈團結。行為藝術與符號衝擊：抗議者穿上清代龍袍諷刺獨裁稱帝、套上小熊維尼偶服，以充滿政治幽默與符號化的行為藝術，成為美聯社等西方主流媒體鏡頭捕捉與聚焦的重點。

三、 跨世代抗爭者大會師：民運前輩的聲音與歷史性交匯在華府街頭這場震撼全美的前沿抗爭中，來自各個領域、跨越世代的海外抗爭力量完成了近年來極具歷史意義的大會師，多位民運前輩也在現場與新聞發布會上發表了擲地有聲的發言：著名民運領袖、中國民主運動海外聯席會議主席魏京生先生親臨現場發表演講，並聯合多位學者專家主持「中國國是會議」。魏京生在發表題為《始於去習，重在新生》的演講中特別指出：「即使習近平真的下台，也並不意味著中國的問題就此結束，中共一黨專政體制並不會自動終結。我們海外民運要做好準備，把抗議目標從『反對個人』推進到『結束一黨專政、建立民主制度』的戰略高度，為將來走向自由民主添磚加瓦。」八九學運領袖、中國議會總召集人王丹在赴華府前發表《致習近平公開信》，並親赴白宮前喊到嗓子啞掉。王丹在現場發言中動情地表示：「我們來到華盛頓，就是要讓習近平聽到他在中國聽不到的聲音，告訴全世界，中共不代表中國，更不能代表中國人民！我們團結在一起反對獨裁專制，更不能忘記那些為了追求民主自由而被關押在獄中的勇敢者。」 中國民主黨全國委員會主席王軍濤帶領民主黨各地骨幹在白宮及賓館周邊化整為零、多點布防，與群眾一道維持高分貝喊話；著名雕塑家陳維明率自由雕塑公園義工團隊遠道而來，他在現場強調：「海外中國人不能因為身處自由社會就忘記牆內遭受迫害的人，公開抗議就是在挑戰那個依靠恐懼和政治鎮壓維持的制度。」

與此同時，中國民主人權聯盟（CDHRA）與民主陣線的金秀紅、魏碧洲等負責人，帶領來自西海岸（洛杉磯、西雅圖）及東海岸各地成員拉起大型橫幅，將萬里長征的宣示與現場吶喊緊密串聯。著名維吾爾人權活動家熱比婭·卡德爾（Rebiya Kadeer）率領維吾爾社群親臨現場，手持東突厥斯坦旗幟揭露人權迫害，並與現場民運成員合影交流；流亡藏人代表則高舉雪山獅子旗加入白宮外遊行隊伍，推動「自由西藏（Free Tibet）」訴求。

這場盛會吸引了廣泛的媒體與政治關注。現場除了知名自媒體人、《新聞拍案驚奇》主持人兼記者大宇在第一線穿梭採訪外，美聯社（AP）、美國之音（VOA）、自由亞洲電台（RFA）、大紀元等各大國際主流媒體的多路記者均在現場進行深度採訪與鏡頭記錄。美國國會眾議員吉姆·麥克高文（Jim McGovern）等政要也親臨現場演講聲援，與抗議民眾深入交流。

四、 國會對話與政策溝通：從街頭吶喊到體制串聯抗議行動的影響力不僅停留在白宮與賓館外圍的街頭。活動期間，團隊成員更深入國會辦公大樓會議室，與美國國會議員、政要顧問以及人權倡議人士進行了密集的座談交流。這種「街頭抗議」與「國會溝通」雙軌並進的模式，成功將對習近平訪美、中共「7-1惡法」以及中共在美實施「跨國鎮壓」的強烈民間抗議，轉化為美國國會政策與立法層面的重點關注。

結語：行動鑄就未來9月25日，團隊踏上返程，並於27日上午順利回到洛杉磯，為這趟跨越全美的抗議之旅畫上了圓滿的句點。這趟萬里遠征證明了：當對自由的信念足夠堅定，距離與疲憊都無法阻止發聲。從東西海岸的公路奔襲，到白宮街頭傳入牆內的吶喊，再到國會大樓內的深度對話，這群行動者與各路民運領袖用腳步與聲浪，在習近平訪美期間寫下了不可磨滅的歷史篇章。在抗爭力量日益壯大的今天，這聲跨越全美的咆哮，終將凝聚成不可逆轉的民主浪潮。

Traveling Ten Thousand Miles to DC: A Record of the Protest Against Xi Jinping’s Visit to the US

Author: Tang Xin

Abstract: In September 2026, overseas pro-democracy activists traveled across the United States to Washington, D.C., to protest Xi Jinping’s state visit to the US. Focusing their resistance on opposition to the Chinese Communist Party’s authoritarianism, transnational repression, and human rights violations, they conveyed their pursuit of democracy and freedom through street protests and dialogue with Congress.

Under the current waves of global geopolitical turmoil and authoritarian expansion, the awakening and action of grassroots forces are becoming the most resilient bedrock shaking totalitarian regimes. In late September 2026, coinciding with the arrival of Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping in Washington, D.C., for a state visit to the United States, a group of protesters bound by a steadfast pursuit of freedom and democracy completed an arduous ten-thousand-mile expedition across the entire American continent—from the Pacific coast directly to Washington, D.C., the political heart of the United States—to express their strongest protest against the authoritarian regime.

This is not only a chronicle of an action, but also a profound manifestation of free will and the power of grassroots resistance.

I. Across the Entire Country: A Three-Thousand-Mile Long March

On the morning of September 20, 2026, a team of five departed from Los Angeles by private car, successfully arriving in Las Vegas that same evening. On the afternoon of the 21st, the team expanded to seven members in Las Vegas and switched to a more spacious silver-gray Honda Odyssey minivan equipped with a rooftop luggage rack, officially embarking on their journey across the American continent to Washington, D.C.

From the sunshine of the West Coast to the plains of the Midwest, the team crossed countless state lines. In front of a Kansas Historical Marker, beside a deserted highway gas station late at night, and at the rest stops along the way, team members wore white promotional T-shirts printed with slogans such as “END CCP” and “Abolish the Chinese Communist Party’s One-Party Dictatorship, Establish a New China with a Constitutional Republic that Guarantees Human Rights,” leaving behind one resolute silhouette after another. This experience was not only an extreme test of physical strength and willpower, but also a highway relay declaration pushing the wave of resistance from the local level to the entire nation.

Following dozens of consecutive hours of high-speed driving and alternating shifts, the group successfully arrived in Washington, D.C., on the afternoon of the 23rd.

II. The Washington Nightfall and Calling Out in Front of the White House: Combating “Transnational Repression” and Voices Piercing the White House

On the afternoon of the 23rd, Xi Jinping’s special aircraft arrived in Washington. Upon reaching Washington that very evening, the team did not take any rest, heading directly to the vicinity of the hotel where Xi Jinping was staying to launch a nighttime protest. In the Washington night, team members held high slogans such as “Down with the Communist Party” and “Xi Jinping, Get Out,” and unfurled huge blue banners reading “END CCP!” and “Chinese Democracy and Human Rights Alliance (CDHRA),” kicking off an all-weather protest.

On the 24th, while Xi Jinping was holding state talks with the US side at the White House, the protest momentum around the perimeter of the White House reached its peak. Protesters arrayed themselves in full force along Pennsylvania Avenue, as live chants of “Xi Jinping has got to go!” and “Shame on Xi Jinping!” resounded through the skies. According to on-the-scene reports from media outlets such as the Associated Press (AP), VOA, and RFA, the powerful, high-decibel waves of protest directly pierced through the walls and carried into the interior of the White House and the meeting areas (within earshot of White House visit).

Synthesizing reports from major international media outlets and on-site organizations, this protest presented five extremely prominent core demands and characteristics:

Solemnly Combating the “July 1 Evil Law” and the CCP’s Transnational Repression (The Top Priority): The protest site made exposing and resisting the CCP’s “Transnational Repression” its central focus. The protesting masses fiercely denounced the “Law on the Promotion of Ethnic Unity and Progress” implemented by the CCP on July 1 this year, pointing out that Article 63 of the law openly asserts extraterritorial application in an attempt to extend the CCP’s threats and control globally, making it the world’s first evil law to “codify transnational repression into law.” Media such as the Associated Press and Radio Free Asia specifically recorded that the pro-CCP welcoming faction on the scene attempted to use large black umbrellas to block banners, and there were even individuals of unknown background filming and threatening protesters and their relatives inside the Wall (domestic China) at close range. The protest groups strongly condemned this and called on the US government and the international community to crack down severely on the CCP’s sinister hands and infiltration forces in the United States. Adhering to the principles of peace and rationality, the protesting members defended their right to public expression with the assistance of police maintaining order.

Macro-Systemic Transformation and Opposition to Assimilation Policies: The site echoed with shouts of “End the One-Party Dictatorship of the CCP” and “Abolish CCP Autocracy, Establish a New Constitutional Republic of China Guarantees Human Rights,” elevating the demands from mere opposition to an individual leader to the height of promoting systemic change in China’s political system. In response to the “July 1 Evil Law’s” attempt to legalize cultural eradication and assimilation policies, the protesting masses demanded the immediate abolition of the evil law.

Human Rights Guarantees, Stopping Forced Organ Harvesting, and Releasing Conscience Prisoners: Many protesters on-site held up photos of prisoners of conscience and political prisoners such as Gao Zhisheng, Wang Bingzhang, Xu Zhiyong, and Jimmy Lai, shouting “Human Rights in China!” and “FREE JIMMY LAI,” demanding that the CCP immediately and unconditionally release all individuals who have been illegally detained, forcibly disappeared, and subjected to persecution; simultaneously, Falun Gong practitioners and human rights groups shouted “Stop Forced Organ Harvesting!” and “Stop Religious Persecution,” solemnly exposing CCP atrocities.

Minority Groups and Freedom for Taiwan and Hong Kong: The Tibetan community raised high the Snow Lion Flag and shouted “Free Tibet!”, protesting strongly against the July 1 evil law’s assimilation persecution of Tibetan culture and residential schools; the Uyghur community held East Turkestan flags to expose genocide; Hong Kong groups shouted “Liberate Hong Kong, Revolution of Our Times! (FREE HONG KONG!)”; and Taiwanese groups jointly spoke out and published full-page statements in the media, such as “A Stern Warning to Xi Jinping: Democratic Taiwan Shall Not Be Overthrown by Force,” demonstrating strong cross-ethnic solidarity against tyranny.

Performance Art and Symbolic Impact: Protesters donned Qing dynasty imperial dragon robes to satirize the authoritarian assumption of the throne and put on Winnie the Pooh costume suits. Through performance art filled with political humor and symbolism, they became a central focus captured by the lenses of Western mainstream media, including the Associated Press.

III. Grand Gathering of Multi-Generational Resisters: Voices of Pro-Democracy Veterans and a Historic Intersection

In this vanguard resistance on the streets of Washington, D.C. that shook the entire United States, overseas resistance forces spanning various fields and generations achieved an immensely historically significant grand gathering of recent years. Multiple pro-democracy veterans also delivered powerful and resounding speeches on-site and at news conferences:

Mr. Wei Jingsheng, the renowned pro-democracy leader and Chairman of the Overseas Chinese Democracy Coalition, attended the scene in person to deliver a speech and co-hosted the “China National Affairs Conference” with several scholars and experts. In his speech titled Starting with the Removal of Xi, Focusing on Rebirth, Wei Jingsheng specifically pointed out: “Even if Xi Jinping truly steps down, it does not mean that China’s problems will end there, nor will the CCP’s one-party dictatorship automatically terminate. We in the overseas democracy movement must be prepared to advance our protest objective from ‘opposing an individual’ to the strategic height of ‘ending one-party dictatorship and establishing a democratic system,’ contributing brick by brick toward walking toward freedom and democracy in the future.”

Wang Dan, a leader of the 1989 Student Movement and Chief Convenor of the Chinese Parliament, published an Open Letter to Xi Jinping before heading to Washington, D.C., and personally shouted in front of the White House until his voice became hoarse. In his on-site speech, Wang Dan stated with deep emotion: “We have come to Washington precisely to let Xi Jinping hear the voices he cannot hear inside China, and to tell the entire world that the CCP does not represent China, nor can it ever represent the Chinese people! We stand united against dictatorship and autocracy, and we must never forget those brave individuals imprisoned in jail for pursuing democracy and freedom.”

Wang Juntao, Chairman of the National Committee of the Democratic Party of China, led core backbones of the Democratic Party from various regions to disperse into smaller units and set up multi-point defenses around the White House and the hotel, maintaining high-decibel chants alongside the crowds. The renowned sculptor Chen Weiming led a volunteer team from the Liberty Sculpture Park traveling from afar; he emphasized on-site: “Overseas Chinese cannot forget those suffering persecution inside the Wall simply because we are in a free society. Public protest is precisely challenging that system maintained by fear and political suppression.”

At the same time, leaders such as Jin Xiuhong and Wei Bizhou from the Chinese Democracy and Human Rights Alliance (CDHRA) and the Federation for a Democratic China led members hailing from various locations across the West Coast (Los Angeles, Seattle) and the East Coast to unfurl large banners, closely linking the declaration of their ten-thousand-mile long march with the on-site shouts. Renowned Uyghur human rights activist Rebiya Kadeer led the Uyghur community to attend the scene in person, holding East Turkestan flags to expose human rights abuses, and taking photos as well as exchanging ideas with pro-democracy members on-site; exiled Tibetan representatives raised high the Snow Lion Flag to join the march formation outside the White House, advancing the demand for a “Free Tibet.”

This grand event attracted widespread media and political attention. On-site, in addition to well-known self-media personality Dayu—host and reporter for News Breakouts (Xin Wen Pai An Jing Qi)—shuttling through the frontlines conducting interviews, multiple teams of reporters from major international mainstream media outlets, including the Associated Press (AP), Voice of America (VOA), Radio Free Asia (RFA), and The Epoch Times, conducted in-depth interviews and video recordings on scene. Dignitaries such as US Representative Jim McGovern also came to the site in person to deliver speeches in solidarity and engage in deep exchanges with the protesting crowds.

IV. Congressional Dialogue and Policy Communication: From Street Chants to Systemic Connection

The impact of the protest action did not remain merely on the street perimeters of the White House and the hotel. During the event, team members went deeper into conference rooms within Congressional office buildings, conducting intensive panel discussions and exchanges with US Members of Congress, senior political advisors, and human rights advocates. This dual-track model combining “street protest” and “congressional communication” successfully transformed strong grassroots protests against Xi Jinping’s visit to the US, the CCP’s “July 1 Evil Law,” and the CCP’s implementation of “transnational repression” in the US into a key focus at the level of US congressional policy and legislation.

Conclusion: Action Forges the Future

On September 25, the team set out on their return journey, arriving smoothly back in Los Angeles on the morning of the 27th, bringing this cross-country protest trip to a successful conclusion.

This ten-thousand-mile expedition proved that when conviction in freedom is steadfast enough, neither distance nor exhaustion can stop one from speaking out. From the highway dash across the East and West coasts, to the chants on the streets outside the White House that penetrated inside the Wall, and further to the in-depth dialogues within the Congressional buildings, this group of activists together with pro-democracy leaders from all walks of life wrote an indelible historical chapter with their footsteps and voices during Xi Jinping’s visit to the US. Today, as the forces of resistance grow stronger by the day, this roar spanning across the United States will ultimately coalesce into an irreversible tide of democracy.
