Greenlight to Freedom: Stories from North Korean Refugees

Join us for an evening of storytelling this summer. For many families in North Korea, famine and dire hardship are commonplace, and many struggle to survive. Refugee Songmi Han, who escaped from the country in 2011, will share her perilous and gripping account of life under a military state. She found the courage to tell her story a decade later, penning a memoir, Greenlight to Freedom, co-authored with Casey Lartigue Jr.

Joining Han on stage to share additional stories of freedom from North Korea will be Lartigue and Eunkoo Lee, the co-founders of Freedom Speakers International, based in Seoul and a tax-deductible 501(c)3 in the USA. Since 2013, FSI has empowered more than 700 North Korean refugees through English education, public speaking, and career development.
