19 Speech to corpses AKA middle school kids

2017-07-19: Question: Given a choice between giving a speech at a morgue or to middle school kids, which would you prefer?

My Answer: Morgue. At least corpses won't eat cookies donated to TNKR.

Today (2016-07-19) I gave a speech to a group of South Korean middle school kids. They had all of the enthusiasm of military draftees. Yes, I would have been better off speaking at a morgue, but the middle school kids won out because they visited TNKR.

I gave a more personal introduction to the speech, trying to have at least a few minutes of connecting with them. There were even a few smiles from them, but I knew it wouldn't last once I got into the heart of the speech. At one point, I was worried that some of the youngsters had passed away during my speech.

The best part is that I got some great photos of them sleeping. It isn't just that they were sleeping. It seemed they were even having nightmares about my speech as they were dozing off.

I guess I am still spoiled from my experience with the Chadwick International students. Those whipper-snappers were interrupting me during my presentation with questions, and they applauded me. Yes, elementary school students applauded me.

Helping North Koreans 'strike the blow' (Korea Times)

H ave you ever engaged in action not because you were sure it would change the world, but to satisfy your own heart? That, I emailed to an American friend, is why I have joined the effort to help North Koreans who are trying to escape from their homeland. I can’t change the direction of policy in North Korea or China but I can row the boat I am sitting in rather than lamenting that I can’t steer the yachts somewhere else. So I have tried to do what I can: Attending protests in front of the Chinese embassy in Seoul (and I plan to do so when I visit America in April); donating money to the Citizens’ Alliance for North Korean Human Rights ( www.nkhumanrights.or.kr ); educating myself, writing articles and emailing friends; and, as a member of the board of trustees, I recently submitted a resolution to the Frederick Douglass Memorial and Historical Association (FDMHA) in Washington, D.C., to try to call attention to the plight of North Koreans. Our organization’s missi...
