PAST KOREA PEACE STUDY GROUP SESSIONS
Rev. Samuel Shinn on Massacres in South Korea before and during the Korean War
In the June 2026 session of the Korea Peace Study Group, we heard from Samuel Shinn, one of the co-founders of Truth Reconciliation and Peace. He shared about massacres committed in South Korea before and during the Korean War.
Korean Christian Zionism with K. Christine Pae
The May 2026 session of the Korean Peace Study Group focused on discussion about Korean Christian Zionism with guest scholar and professor K. Christine Pae.
Remembering Jeju 4.3
In our April 2026 session of the Korea Peace Study Group, we collectively remembered the loss of Korean life to state-sponsored violence on Jeju island from 1948-1954. 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.
