2014-03-16 Planning meeting for rally

I had three meetings on Sunday, which should be my day off...

The key meeting was about the rally for North Korean freedom. We made a couple of big decisions during our three hour meeting that I will be able to announce within a day or two...

Thanks to Lovy Kim in particular for working some magic with her camera so we could all be included. And thanks to Sandra Kim, Yeonmi Park, Taeheun Lee and Lee Eunkoo for their feedback and suggestions. I advertised this widely, but they are the only ones who showed up!

I think I saw Yeonmi every day that week. The following day we recorded our first podcast. https://caseylartigue.blogspot.com/2014/03/17-Casey-Yeonmi.html

Eunkoo had only worked as a researcher, so this kind of street rally was definitely new territory for her.

Update: A South Korean boat ferry in mid-April, about 10 days before the rally was scheduled. Our partners wanted to cancel the rally, so we canceled!

Casey Lartigue awarded "Social Contribution" Award (Hansarang)

On April 20, 2017, I was awarded the "Social Contribution" award by the Hansarang Foundation. When I was first nominated, my response was: "Hahahaha! I won't win, but it is a great honor to be nominated." It was until I was a finalist that I took it seriously. Then instead of saying "I am honored to be nominated," I wanted to WIN ! Which I did! I was awarded a plaque, 10 million won (about $9,000), and many congratulations from many people (including other awardees that night).

Chosun Monthly magazine [Korean language]

Chosun Monthly Magazine has made an announcement (in Korean) about the Seoul Honorary Citizenship award that I received on December 9, 2022. Our Korean staffers say that the magazine is a big deal in South Korea. Here's the overall roundup of media about the award. In the next two months, I have extended interviews coming up in two different magazines, one in the USA and one in South Korea. Both articles will be in respected publications so they should raise awareness of FSI's work that your support makes possible. * * * Support FSI via Stripe or PayPal . https://donate.stripe.com/3cs28F5IAcc85IAaEF or PayPal .
