HUMAN RIGHTS IN NORTH KOREA

This May 10-14th is Human Rights in North Korea Awareness Week. Check out the website and if you are a Stanford student PLEASE make a time to visit White Plaza and any of the events we have organised. We have former Ambassador James Lilley coming to give a keynote speech on Monday 10th, a speakers panel on Wednesday boasting Professor Larry Diamond, Deborah Liang-Fenton from the US Committee for Human Rights in North Korea and David Hawk who was one the researchers for the publication of "The Hidden Gulag" - a must read. We also have a student rally, a benefit concert and daily opportunities for people to write letters, learn more and donate. All money raised will go to helping North Korean human rights issues.
