Trailer of a new documentary, Ghosts of Jeju, on Jeju’s history of violent suppression by U.S.-led military occupation, including a current-day struggle over the building of a navy base at the UNESCO-protected coastal site of Gangjeong, which the local villagers have protested for years.

Photos from the KEEP 2012 send-off fundraiser last Saturday. It was a great and loving gathering of radical korean folk. KEEP 2010ers in NYC came out in force (pictured)! Meejin shared her experience from KEEP2010 and how it threads through to her work today with groups like CAAAV (woohoo). And, the family keeps growing.
Amazing to be reminded how much queer Korean and POC folk are active in, support and help drive multi-issue movements for justice, self-determination, and liberation, as well as local cultures of resistance. (Not because it’s strategic or generous, but because it’s necessary for our own survival and the survival of those whom we love.) Case in point would be the recent and awesome CPR-led Stop and Frisk anti-policing local organizing work.
