Cross-posting an invitation to a webinar hosted by Korea Peace Now Grassroots Network (source):
Join a webinar exploring how Korean evangelical support for Israel functions as “chosen peoples nationalism.”
We’ll examine its roots in anti-communist and anti-LGBT sentiment, end-times theology, and historical revisionism — and how these forces sacralize militarism, erase Palestinian narratives, and promote a neo‑imperial vision of global Christian dominance. Ideal for scholars, activists, and anyone interested in religion and geopolitics. Register HERE.
The speaker, Keunjoo Christine Pae, is a Professor of Religion and Women’s and Gender Studies and Chair of Religion at Denison University. She is an author of A Transpacific Imagination of Theology, Ethics, and Spiritual Activism: Doing Feminist Ethics Transnationally (2023) and co-editor of Searching for the Future in the Past: Reclaiming Feminist Theological Visions (2024) and Embodying Antiracist Christianity: Asian American Theological Resources for Just Racial Relations (2023). She is an Episcopal priest who canonically resides in the Diocese of Newark.

The United States has never acknowledged its role in the massacres on Jeju Island despite issuing the order that led to the indiscriminate slaughter of civilians.
South Korea’s Erased Anti-Communist Genocide
Before the Korean War even began, the United States was already waging one. Not against a foreign army – but against the Korean people themselves.
