Roqayah is off this week, so Kumars is joined from the top of the hour by Ju-hyun Park, engagement editor at The Real News Network and an organizer with Nodutdol for Korean Community Development. 

Ju-hyun discusses the origins of Nodutdol, founded in 1999 by diaspora Koreans in the United States to work for reunification, national liberation and the end of US imperialism on the Korean peninsula, and expands on their latest for People’s Dispatch, “Was South Korea’s coup an attempt to restart the Korean War?”

Ju-hyun and Kumars situate the recent political crisis in the context of the decades-long popular struggle against colonization and military dictatorship, rounding out the conversation by considering the possible confrontations still to come between US imperial designs in Northeast Asia and the Korean people’s fight for sovereignty.
