                              Come hear Yoomi Jeong
       Deputy Secretary General of the Korea Truth Commission (KTC)
             Speak About:
                      Korea’s Struggle for Self-Determination
                                          2-5 pm Sunday, June 1st
      at the  Chicago Temple, 77 W Washington St (across from Daley
Plaza)

Why is Korea still divided? Why are tens of thousands of US troops still
in Korea despite mass protests? What is the nuclear power dispute
between the US and
North Korea all about? How do the people in the south of Korea feel? Is
Korea the next target of the Bush War Machine? What can the peace
movement do to
stop a war on Korea?

                There will also be a showing of the powerful BBC video
                                                Kill ‘em All
    Documenting US military massacres of civilians during the Korean War
