[Penn for LiNK/Kim Program/KSA] Engaging North Korea: From Grassroots to High Politics - Meyerson B1, 6PM

What's it like to engage with North Korea? What's the best way to address the humanitarian crisis? How do we conduct reliable research on this "hermit nation"? Is change in North Korea in the near future probable, or even possible? Or is it inevitable?

If you're curious about any of the questions above, join Penn for Liberty in North Korea, the James Joo-Jin Kim Program, and KSA in this exciting discussion with three distinguished panelists!

Panelists:

Sung Kim (former U.S. Ambassador to South Korea)

Chad O'Carroll (Founder of NK News)

Hannah Song (President & CEO of Liberty in North Korea)

Wednesday:

2nd Annual Asian American Voter Registration Drive - Info Session! - PAACH, 6PM

Currently, there are about 100,000 Asian Americans in Philly, 51,000 American citizens, but only 7,022 registered voters, which means only 7% of the population is eligible to vote. Last year, over 74 volunteers and 12 organizations contributed to the historic Asian American Voter Registration Drive/Community Outreach Initiative. It targeted Philadelphia’s Asian neighborhoods with a 21 day door-to-door registration campaign, providing translated voter registration forms in Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, Japanese, and Tagalog, with more languages coming.

If you would like to get involved with volunteering, come to the info session on Wednesday, April 8th at 5pm! Thomas Kang, the Special Assistant to Philadelphia Councilman David Oh, will describe the details of what being a volunteer will mean. This is an amazing chance for you to get involved with the Philly community and do some rewarding work--hope to see you there!
