“It’s not just a North Korea/South Korea problem. The future of this intractable conflict is contingent on the diplomacy of the U.S. and North Korea. More education can help create the conditions for peace to happen.”

"What we need now is a national unforgetting of the Korean partition and the ensuing war."

This is a powerful read by @MarieMyungOkLee on the anniversary of the Korean War armistice. A reminder for all of us in the struggle for peace.

The Korean war has always been "the forgotten war" + "police action" as if it were small + didn't matter. However,

"54,246 Americans died (compared w 58,220 service personnel in Vietnam)" + this precedent set the stage for US extralegal forever wars

"As far as I knew, Korea was not on the map." Many Korean adoptees who grew up in the West are just now discovering their roots. See their stories in #GeographiesofKinship, streaming now on @WORLDChannel: https://t.co/5BbpP7AITN & the @PBS App. #AAPIMonth @Mu_Films @CAAMedia

Deann Borshay Liem's documentary humanizes the fallout of the international adoption practices that found their footing during the Korean War, and became a booming business by the 1980s. https://t.co/vOnOq6Zl3e

"It’s a testament to humanity’s longing for roots and family. It’s an important history lesson related to American intervention overseas."

Thanks to @Raemondjjjj for this thoughtful review of #GeographiesofKinship.

Thanks to @berkeleyside for this feature on filmmaker @deannliem!

✏️Deann Borshay Liem began her career exploring the mystery of her own identity. In ‘Geographies of Kinship, her latest film, she’s looking to place personal stories “within a broader historical phenomenon.”
