Sending Prayers

CelebrityPoliticsThe Absurd and/or Troubling
Written By Christine Koh

It was heartbreaking and somewhat surreal to read this morning about Laura Ling (Lisa Ling's sister) and Euna Lee being sentenced to 12 years in labor camps in North Korean. As a first generation Korean, I have, over the years, felt a considerable amount of confusion about identity. But this sort of news makes me understand better why my parents used to encourage me to clarify to those who asked that my family was from the South side.

I'm sending prayers to the Ling and Lee families this morning...
