IV Theater 2
This Global Awareness Week, LiNK's CalWest Nomads (traveling representatives) will be presenting The People's Crisis, a documentary following the stories of four refugees from their escape into China and along their journey to freedom. The film also offers a comprehensive overview of the North Korean people's crisis, featuring interviews with North Korean refugees who have escaped, expert analysis, and insight into some of the little-known grass-roots changes that are happening inside the country. Following the film, the Nomads will speak more deeply about LiNK and opportunities for audience members to get involved!
Liberty in North Korea was created in 2004 when two passionate individuals learned about the atrocities happening in North Korea and felt a burden to share with the rest of the world. Educating a group of college students and young leaders about the crisis, together they formed LiNK with the hope of spreading awareness and effecting real change. The organization quickly grew and became a movement of activists empowered by the stories of refugees and motivated by the urgency of the issue. LiNK's work focuses on awareness through mobilizing the grassroots and telling these stories of hope and survival. We meet with governments, NGOs and institutions to advocate for the North Korean people, while working directly with refugees through a network of shelters in China and Southeast Asia - protecting, educating and assisting them to eventually find freedom and empower them to live new lives.
