Virtual Victims of Communism Roll Call of Nations Ceremony on June 11 at 9:00am

14th Annual Roll Call of Nations Ceremony and Truman-Reagan Medal of Freedom Presentation


Join the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation (VOC) virtually on June 11 at 9:00 AM EDT for our Roll Call of Nations Wreath Laying Ceremony to honor the memory of the more than 100 million victims of communism, and to boldly remind the world that over 1 billion of our fellow humans are still under the yoke of this evil and inhuman ideology.

This year, we are proud to present our Truman-Reagan Medal of Freedom to Jimmy Lai, Hong Kong entrepreneur and pro-democracy activist, who was a leader of Hong Kong’s 2014 Umbrella Movement and is being accused and tried for his involvement in the 2019-2020 pro-democracy movement.

The brutal crushing of dissent in Hong Kong tells the world all it needs to know about the capacity of communist governments to tolerate even the smallest concessions to freedom. The bravery of Jimmy Lai and many other citizens of Hong Kong tell us the human thirst for freedom will never die.

We hope you can join us on June 11 at 9:00 AM EDT via live stream on VOC’s YouTubeFacebook, and Twitter pages.

Below is 2020's Roll Call of Nations Ceremony.
