North Korea Freedom Coalition reports:
Tuesday, March 30, 10 am – 12 noon there will be a Protest at the Chinese Embassy to Save North Korean Refugees (3505 International Place, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20008.) The Pyongyang Musical Group is leading this event and the North Korea Freedom Coalition is joining them to protest against China’s violent treatment of North Korean refugees. The Pyongyang Musical Group is a visiting group of North Korean defectors who have been performing in the USA at churches to raise awareness of the North Korean human rights issues. Most of them escaped to freedom through China and they want to continue to raise awareness of the suffering that refugees undergo especially female refugees. This is a tremendous opportunity to meet some very courageous and brave North Korean women who are also talented musicians, as well as fellow human rights activists. If you can join us for the protest, please email me at skswm@aol.com
