Hello Friends and Neighbors,
I am writing today to let you know about an event happening this Thursday at 7pm at the Peace & Justice Center (60 Lake Street in Burlington). I believe it will be extremely informative, engaging and inspirational for all in attendance. North Korea is the one of the most oppressive country in the world, but change is happening at the grassroots level. The Peace & Justice Center is hosting this event in collaboration with the Liberty in North Korea tour.
This event focuses on one of the most significant trends emerging today: the Jangmadang Generation. It brings the voices and insights of friends who have experienced the challenges and changes in North Korea first hand. LiNK worked with Joo Yang, Yeonmi Park, and Joseph Kim to produce a personal, dynamic and engaging multimedia presentation. Three LiNK members will lead this presentation. These individuals will also share their involvement in this largely youth lead movement to overcome the oppression in North Korea. This is a chance to hear young people from North Korea describe what's happening in their country and learn how we can be a part of their movement for social justice.
I hope to see you there!
