Ending the Korean War Teaching Collective Syllabus Launch + Conversation
co-presented by Korea Policy Institute and GYOPO

Please join us for the Los Angeles launch of the open-access Ending the Korean War Teaching Collective Syllabus
and a conversation in which Christine Hong (KPI) and Yusef Omowale (Southern California Library) situate Saigu/LA Uprising against the unending Korean War and other U.S. counterinsurgent wars. This reframing counters the project of state-sanctioned memory and prompts critical reconceptions of the archive and Los Angeles as an imperial geography.

MORE ABOUT THE ENDING THE KOREAN WAR TEACHING COLLECTIVE SYLLABUS
The online, open-access Ending the Korean War Teaching Collective Syllabus is a political education platform serving as an anti-imperialist tool against permanent war.
Follow-up presentation at the 2023 Association for Asian American Studies Annual Conference on April 8th.
