BEIJING -- Chinese authorities are detaining activists as a call circulates for people to gather Sunday in 13 cities for a "Jasmine Revolution."
The organizers are not known. Searches for the word "jasmine" were blocked Saturday on China's largest Twitter-like microblog.
Families and friends reported the detention or harassment of several activists Saturday after the online call to gather in 13 cities and shout "We want food, we want work, we want housing, we want fairness."


The wife of Beijing lawyer Jiang Tianyong says police pulled him into a car and drove away.
