The March First Movement (1919) was a Korean protest against Japanese colonial rule. It remains a defining moment in Korean history. "Does Spring Still Come To These Stolen Fields" (1926) by Yi Sang-hwa is a poem of resistance and elegy for those whose lands were stolen.

Please repost: I've had a couple of inquiries about this search, and I'd like to be clear that we have several areas of need, so the ad's text refers to keywords "Asia/Global History/Technology/Politics/Society." This could include media and technology studies, transnational history, etc. 1/3

DKSC translates a powerful speech by a Korean pro-democratic protester calling for a new vision of democracy as a form of living-with-others. This speech was delivered during a mass demonstration on January 3, 2025, in response to the failed attempt to arrest the recently impeached president Yoon.
