For the Human Rights

In May, 2014, there was the 19th Seoul Human Rights Film Festival in Seoul, South Korea. The slogan of this film festival was 'I Am Here.' This looked like the reminder of what we have forgotten which we should not have forgotten. It also made me think about Human Rights more.

 

Human rights is a right that is believed to belong justifiably to every person. However, there are numerous people who are not able to have rights to live their lives as a human.

 

This picture shows the situations people don't have guarantee of human rights with violence. When you look at this picture, you can feel how serious the situation is. Not only the problems of violence, Lots of cases of violation of human rights are there throughout the world. Most of them cannot even afford to ask for any help to anyone.

 

To eliminate these cases, some people tried to alarm and made them to self-questioning about the violation of human rights spread before the World War Ⅱ by declaration for International Human rights. That was how the International Human Rights was set on Dec.10.

 

Hopefully, not only the people celebrate the day of International Human Rights as just a holiday, but the day of desire of peaceful world with getting supported by people and guaranteeing the human rights.

A fighter for Independence, Jung-geun Ahn had beautiful hands.

I was wandering for 3 years making efforts to make Korean independence restored and peace in Asia remained. But finally, it couldn't be achieved and I'm dying here, I have a wish before I die. I want you, twenty million brothers and sisters to try harder for studying, raising unemployment and restoring free independence.

-From the patriotic martyr, Jung-geun Ahn's last will shortly before he die for his country-

That statement above is the will of Jung-geun Ahn who died for his country as a fighter for independence. In my childhood, I learned about him just on the school textbook. But now, I think of him by not the knowledge but the heart.

When we look at his fingers, we can notice that one of his finger joints was cut. He meant to show his earnest mind for peace and independence by cutting his finger.

 

It is not too much to say that his mind was originated from his parents. The first thing that came up in my mind when I think of him is that he killed Itō Hirobumi using a bomb. When he was jailed for that, his mother sent a shroud and a letter that said "You were right, so face the death honorably." But actually, we cannot even imagine how his mother felt desperate.

 

Thomas Jung-geun Ahn. People called him thomas for decades not knowing why he is thomas. He was a Catholic, so he was given the name 'Thomas' as a baptismal name. He, as a citizen of Korea and a Catholic, said that "I will shout and do my best for the independence even in heaven when I hear the voices crying out for that.”

I'm really thankful for that we can live a peaceful lives now thanks to his independence movements with a determination of death.

 

I think we should search for the ways that we also can do feeling thankful to the fighters for independence who left a peaceful world to us, even sacrificing their lives. Furthermore, I hopefully wish for the world fully filled with peace and without repeating any victims and tragedies regarding wars.

 

Gypsy and Rom

 

Gypsy performs a very charming flamenco. We might think sometimes that gypsies who passionately dance wearing a red dress in a movie or a musical are charming. Tom Cruise had said that he had a crush on Penelope Cruz when she was performing flamenco in a movie, Volver. But, in reality, gypsies could not have a colorful life as people usually thought. According to the dominant view gypsies ,a nomadic minority, were derived from India and came to Eastern Europe in the 1400s. At that time gypsies had life such as slave under serfdom and wandered here and there without a fixed residence. They call themselves Rom, Lom, Roma, or Dom, not a gypsi. All these names have a meaning of human. My heart ached with sympathy for them. (Therefore, I will use the term ‘Rom’, not ‘gypsi’ in this text.)

 

The entertainment is the most appropriate work for some Rom who do not stay one place for a long time. In this regard, lots of Rom gain their livelihood as a performer like a clown, a musician or a fortune-teller. On the other hand, there are some other Rom who settle down their life but they belong to the poor strata according to the survey of UNDP in 2011. In addition, half of their children do not attend an elementary school.

 

In history, there had been lots of discrimination on Rom. They used to be burned at the stake or buried alive while being regarded as a symbol of devil or a target of witch-hunt in the Middle Ages. Also, Nazi Germany had persecuted them, so about 15 million people were killed. In recent years, Rom who live in the core of London have some difficulties such as migration restrictions and deportation on a charge of mess and misdemeanor. The reason they are being persecuted is that they keep on wandering without regularly paying a tax. This is against the claims of Europeans.

 

I think, across the ages and in all countries of the world, the apple of discord is from the disapproval without understanding and the greed forcing one’s idea on others. As all people are entirely different in character, every country and race has their own nationality and ethnicity. However, we did not accept the differences but made an ethnic group, Rom, have a sorrowful life. I sincerely hope that there is no longer any repetition of these persecutions and sorrowful history, while reminding myself of the saying ‘There will be no more discrimination if we agree to disagree.’

War movie and War documentary

War movie and War documentary

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

On this June, I think about peace, the world without wars.
 

Yesterday night, I watched a documentary which was saying about ‘Obama and Truman, their dilemma of war’.The documentary was based on British’s sarcastic words to president Obama, that was America about Korean war.
 

Some of the british journalists and politicians were derogating and disregarding South Korea which had been weak and poor at that time. As a citizen of South Korea, having watched that, I was seriously mad and sad.
 

Every country looks so busy to self-justify and excuse their behaviors in the documentaries or movies which deal with all the wars that had happened in the world including Korean war. So, these kind of movies look pretty stupid, not somber and serious. I guess people who make this kind of movie or documentary would have dilemma.
 

Chief of state, generals and scientists could regret because results of war are different from what they intended first. And some of them live their lives with guilt and stress injuries caused by a psychological trauma of people killing each other. A figure who used to be a hero can be reappraised and revaluated in the turn of a hand. I felt confused watching war documentaries and movies for last few days.
 

War victimizes everyone.

I was wondering that there would be any need to have war.
 

War will be repeated constantly when we justifies it like in the documentaries or movies that I’ve watched. I think we, in this era, may have duty to break out this vicious circle. We must leave peace, the world without wars at least to our next generation.
 

'No War, Yes Peace! '

 

On this June, we cannot be just happy. This is really simple, but would be a definitely exact answer.
 

Angelina Jolie's meaningful message, and IPYG's meaningful shout

Angelina Jolie's meaningful message, and IPYG's meaningful shout. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

A Hollywood actress, Angelina Jolie went to England and had an official schedule as a envoy of UNHCR on last 10th. It was for attending Global Summit to End Sexual Violence in Conflict. This summit is for making the international society regard female sexual violence problems as an international problem and seeking the solution plans together. From being appointed as a goodwill ambassador of UNHCR in last 2001 to now, she has been trying to let the international society know that they are in trouble. She has been visiting the displaced people from around the world and supporting them progressively for the international aids.

I think she is a good actress and also a good advocate for other activities.

 

Since the history of mankind began, war is happening continuously for various reasons. Its most victims are female and children. We can see the seriousness of war through a recent event that Nigeria's armed group, Boko Haram kidnapped about 200 teenaged schoolgirls. Also, Japanese Military Sexual Slavery is one of horrors of war which Japan made Korean girls serve as sex slaves for Japanese soldiers when Korea was under Japanese imperialism.
The grandmothers forced for sex slaves are appealing for their damages and struggling to be apologized, but it is still not solved. It is very sensitive and really hurts. It is the fact that although some leaders of an organization or a nation bring about war, only the weak are damaged for that.

 

So, Angelina Jolie wanted through this summit to raise awareness of sexual violence in wartime and to insist that the assertion which sexual violence is unavoidable is wrong. However, I think not only the sexual violence in wartime but also any war have not to be existed in the world.

IPYG, too, is trying to raise awareness of the seriousness of wars and end it. When wars happen, youths are dragged into wars. So, the youths are appealing and trying for peace. I think that to think and act in the weak's shoes are a real peace and a real harmony.

 

 

As Angelina Jolie delivered a meaningful message of 'Ending Sexual Violence in Wartime', IPYG is shouting for a real peace advanced more than yesterday.

A Day between the Independences of India and Pakistan

A Day between the Independences of India and Pakistan, is it a Start of Peace?

 

In history, most people will know that people discriminated and excluded others due to some reasons such as status, religion and so on. It seems not to be modest for me, countries and its people to be superior to others.

 

But we have seen a lot of cases through history that when we got rid of any discrimination, the nation became thrived and the people became happy. For example, there was a King Sejong in the Joseon dynasty of Korea who is the creator of Hangeul(Korean letters). Although he was a confucian scholar, he admitted various religions like traditional belief and Buddhism. He transcended religions and then equally appointed people according to their talents and regardless of their religions. So, King Sejong is even now respected the most in the Republic of Korea and his people could live happily and peacefully in their times.

 

The Islam empire, Mughul dynasty enjoyed its golden age in the era of Emperor Akbar of the sixteenth century. They appointed talented people regardless of their religions such as Muslim and Hinduism. But after these, it was dramatically declined because of some rebellions like creating Hinduism empire. Eventually, it resulted in Britain's colonization. I think it resulted from their greeds for their own nations and religions not accepting and understanding each other.

 

Mahatma Gandhi, a leader of Nationalism and a peace activist for nonviolence, planned a peace nation co-existing with multi-culture and multi-religion but India and Pakistan became independent separately according to an agreement among National Congress-Muslim League-UK. India became independent on August 15, 1947 and Pakistan declared independence a day ago because Pakistani regard day 15 as islamic sabbath (Friday).

 

On the other hand, these two nations might have become a peaceful nation and more recognized worldwide for their wide territories and many people if each didn't cause conflicts insisting only their nation and religion are right.

 

 

IPYG: Visiting National Cemetery with Children on Memorial Day

IPYG: Visiting National Cemetery with Children on Memorial Day

Today, June 6th is one of Korean Holidays which is Memorial Day. 

I went to the National Cemetery of the military and the police with my students. People admire the memories of soldiers have fought for our nation and died in wars.

On Memorial Day, some consider it just a public holiday and others do it a missing day when it wad buried in their heart.

So did I. I thought it was just a holiday without inspiration.

When I entered the National Cemetery with my students, my heart became sad.

'They were beloved young men in their families and had so many dreams..'

They had passed away so young for my country.

A kid of my class asked to me why wars happened.

In this moment, I could not say anything.

"Wars are bad. 

You and other teachers always tell us not to fight with one another.", she said.

I was thinking how to explain. 'Should I tell her that there are some ideological differences or selfishness in the world?'

But I just couldn't say anything.

Even the kids know war itself is a scar that can never be indelible.

They learned how sad war is and wish it won't happen in the future.

I thought we should love peace and practice peace our lives in order not to hand down wounded hearts to out future children.

Because I am a member of IPYG, I am sure we can make it. 

 IPYG (International Peace Youth Group) will lead the path of peace.

As drops of water falling slowly one by one can make a piece of paper wet, each try of each person for peace will make our world change.

I hope that you who are reading this article can be a part of a peace maker by joining IPYG.

About IPYG - Peace and IPYG

“A map of the world that does not include Utopia is not worth even glancing at….”

-          Oscar Wilde, The Soul of Man under Socialism

This quote is from Oscar Wilde (16 Oct 1854 – 30 Nov 1990). He was an Irish writer and poet. Thinking about peace, I found this touching quote.

A map of the world that does not include Utopia is not worth even glancing at…

That’s true!

I think the world is becoming more dangerous. It’s so hectic that I don’t even want to read news of the world. Some people are willing to die because of their faith. Some people want to harm and kill others to get their interests. It’s like they seem not to have any sense of guilty. Why should we, as human beings, do such a fiendish acts? What if the people you are trying to kill are your family members or someone you love so much?

Unfortunately, those problems have always been there in the name of wars, conflicts, or terrors. And it is unusual not to have wars in the world. When a war breaks out, the young should join armies without their intention. The lives they have are precious which is obvious. And no one must not want wars.

There will be solution we can solve without breaking out wars. And an organization is crying for it. It is showing people around the world that peace will come if they work together. Many groups are gathering to make the world peace. The name of the organization is IPYG.

IPYG is the abbreviation of International Peace Youth Group. It has been holding the events of Peace Walk in different areas in the world. It claims the young should wake up and cry for peace because they are the future in the world. Also, those are the young who need to take the situations seriously and do what they want to do.

I think it is possible when the young gather their will. I desire to live in the peaceful world without any wars. People are fighting and dying and I don’t want to hear the news anymore.

Also, I know you don’t want to do so.

Let’s make the world Utopia like Oscar Wilde said.

Attempts to Connect Comfort Women with Peace, for Peace in History - ‘The Big Picture’

Attempts to Connect Comfort Women with Peace, for Peace in History 

- ‘The Big Picture’

Title: The Big Picture

Cast: Yundeok Kwon, DalyeonSim, Tashima Seizo, Hamada Geico

Initial Release: 2012 (Republic of Korea)

I thought this movie, ‘The Big Picture’, would be interesting to watch because it is regarding to both comfort women and peace. How could anyone combine these two words? 

It stimulated my curiosity.

Some Japanese illustrators suggested to gather Korean, Chinese and Japanese illustrators and to publish a picture book regarding PEACE. It was because they had perception that peace can be achieved only if all the countries take part in, not just a country. Among them, an illustrator Yundeok Kwon took comfort women as its motif for peace.

The word ‘comfort women’ shows how horrendous it was, and how cruel the war was. It came from the concept that women could be brought to serve soldiers under the war and from the false belief that it would bring about good results in the war. However, the fact that ‘good results’ refer to killing someone is there for all to see. In this situation women had to follow the wherever the war took place. They had to go over the dead in the battlefields and again used to make the army move. They had no rights to be human beings but just to be sexual tools for men. How cruel it is. There were no human beings in the battlefield.

The history of comfort women shows one of cruel sides of the war. However, it has been not shown as it is. it used to be used as a political term. Japan supported Korea in 1980s. In return, it wanted to clear away the remnants of its colonialism. And the money went straight to the Korean government to develop and the women were not compensated anything

There is one more reason the women were ostracized. This problem showed the shameful history of Korea which is the history ruled by Japan. The moments that the people who did not have any choices but obeyed the Japanese laws, the reality that people who shared same blood should suppress each other, the people who had to join the other country’s army and left for war against their will.

We should remember that the remnants should not be meant everything cleaned up. Paying some money back should not be meant it is clearly finished the fact they slaughtered Korean indiscriminately. However, unfortunately, they do so in the name of law at that time

The war is so legal. It is so legal that the war can occur easily. People who are conservatism want to keep themselves, so the last solution they can make would be breaking out war. They will not allow the opponents to have power and the will cause war with their very legal laws.

Koreans have used this matter as a political issue. They have usually appealed their offensive feeling about it and inspired patriotism themselves. That is one of the things what Japan wants. It can bring war which means, those dividing ideas between Japan and Korea can cause a war.

This movie is giving you a difficult message in this matter. Since peace is opposite side of war, the war must be stopped. Ms. Sim, she is telling you the wars should never happen again. She knows how horrible situations a war brings. Having peace seems to be getting difficult as Japan seeks for the conservatism. It looks like there are no solutions. What can we do?

I would say that the only thing we can do is to remember and act according to what we have realized, which is the cruel and horrible memories that the war has brought us. I’ve learned it from the illustrator Yundeok Kwon who told that Korean soldiers had committed the same things; having ‘comport women’ in the Vietnam War in her book. She pointed out that it was not each individual person who should have been blamed but the war. And she tells about peace.

In that reason, I think the ‘The Big Picture’ should be published in Japan. The message of peace the illustrator is talking about starts from remembering the history. She doesn’t want her book causes the political issues since she didn’t draw it by focusing on the view of patriotism at all. Japanese students said they didn’t know about the comport women with confident voices. They said they have never heard of that. They don’t know how cruel a war can be. They don’t know their family and beloved people had to die because of war. They don’t know the sad stories someone lost his whole family members at once. They even know nothing about the women who were dragged to a strange land and played around by the soldiers just like dolls. They don’t know anything what horrible results the war will bring to them. That’s why the book must be published in Japan to instill the mind of peace to them by letting them know the history.

This book shows you how a person can die so easily in the name of war. Of course, the Japanese conservatism has problems and need to be changed somehow, but this book does not tell you to fight against it. It shows the problems of wars and tells you not to cause the cruel wars again and make the world peacefully.  

It’s not easy to do so. We need to make an effort to make it. We should know the history of war ourselves and let our neighbors know it. Let’s know, remember, and try to keep the peace. Those are the purposes of this book.  

To Save a Million Is a God-Given Opportunity - Audrey Hepburn & UNICEF

To Save a Million Is a God-Given Opportunity - Audrey Hepburn & UNICEF

 

“To save a child is a blessing: to save a million is a God-given opportunity.”
 

This is one of the famous sayings of Audrey Hepburn and hit the headlines across all the newspaper of the world, and even became an inspiration for the global culture of donation. Audrey Hepburn, she carried out various activities for UNICEF even in her later years when her health had worsened. How was she related to UNICEF?
 

 

Audrey Hepburn was born in Brussels, Belgium. Her original family name was Ruston, but she got family name as 'Hepburn' because her father changed his first and last name a lot for his instability. After she became 6 years old, her mother and she had a wandering life in Netherlands and England apart from her father. Her family was not that poor in her childhood thanks to her mother's side and her mother's ability to support. However, their fortune began to ebb as Europe fell under the influence of the Nazis. At the time of the World War II, their poverty reached a boiling point, and Audrey Hepburn starved near to death. While this was happening, it was just United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund (hereafter UNICEF) that helped and saved her. This memory became the reason why she had actively carried out lots of activities for UNICEF.
 

 

She became a star overnight with a movie, ‘Roman Holiday’, though, she lived a reclusive life after her two unhappy marriages. However, she realized the fact that her reputation would help to raise a charity fund and started to join in UNICEF activities voluntarily.
 

 

She had taken full advantage of her reputation and popularity to raise fund for the relief activities, but she had never behaved herself as a star during serving activities. As a mother with two adorable children, she loved every child and felt deeply sad for dying children

 

If UNICEF went she followed them no matter where it was the wild, battlefield, or the infected areas even at age 60. She set to work with great eagerness as a goodwill ambassador of UNICEF and did not care the money though UNICEF only gave her a dollar a year except the travel budget and the room charge. Even she was not given her own office. Her passionful relief activities were saving many lives while her own health got worse. Under too tight schedule, not considering her age, sadness and emotional shock from the scene made her health deteriorated. Just before her visit to Somalia in September 1992 she had gotten some warning signals with her health. After coming back, she had to take some painkillers in order to deal well with many interviews and events to raise relief fund. Finally, she finished the work November 1992 and she was diagnosed with rectal cancer in an LA hospital. She had a surgery but the result of it was not good.
 

 

Only three months were allowed for the rest of her life. Further treatment became meaningless for her. After retiring, she came back to her hometown in Switzerland and spent the rest of her life with her family. At her last Christmas, she read her favorite poetry to her offsprings as if it was her last will.

    

 

 

"...Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, it's at the end of your arm, as you get older, remember you have another hand: The first is to help yourself, the second is to help others."
 

 

In January 1993 when she was 63 years old, Audrey Hepburn breathed her last as her family and her soul mate Robert Wolders looked on. She was laid in a knoll from which she might be able to look down her house in Switzerland, and people all over the world including her colleagues mourned over her death. Audrey Hepburn's passionate and sincere relief activities were carried on by giving 'Audrey Hepburn Peace Award' which UNICEF and Global Vision for Peace established.
