DESCRIPTION:Information, discussion & community! Monday Night Forum!!\n \nOccupyForum 
 presents…\nFilm and Speaker:\nThe Ghosts of Jeju\n \nThe Ghosts of Jeju 
 is an award-winning documentary directed by Regis Trembly about the 
 struggle of the people of Jeju Island, South Korea. Set in the context of 
 the American presence in Korea after World War II, the film reveals 
 horrible atrocities at the hands of the U.S. Military Government of Korea. 
 Jeju Island is off South Korea and has three International Heritage 
 Sites.The United States is building a huge Naval Base on the island. The 
 film describes the brave, peaceful resistance of the indigenous people to 
 the base today and the history of the genocide of native people during the 
 “Korean War.” The spirit of the villagers and those who have joined 
 their resistance movement is inspiring.\n\n \nUsing previously secret and 
 classified photos, film and documents, this is the first English-language 
 documentary about the struggle of the brave people of Gangjeong Village who 
 are opposing the military advance of the United States, just as their 
 parents and relatives did in 1947. As then, they are being arrested, 
 jailed, fined, and hospitalized for resisting the construction of a massive 
 naval base that will accommodate America's “pacific pivot” and will 
 destroy their 400 year old village and their UNESCO-protected 
 environment.\n\n \nThe United States is a war-based economy and has been 
 one since WW I and reconfirmed by WW II, the Korean War, the Vietnam wars 
 and up to, and including the Gulf War in Iraq and the Afghanistan War. 
 Sadly, the vast majority of Americans have been conditioned to accept our 
 serial wars and to “Support Our Troops” without questioning. \n\nOur 
 speaker has previously spoken OccupyForum.\n\nDiscussion and announcements 
 will follow. \nDonations accepted; no one turned away.\n\n
