Call for a unified Korea

A coalition of groups, including the Korean American National Coordinating Council and the Korean Peace Alliance, held an event on June 4 outside the Korean Consulate in downtown Los Angeles and organized the hanging of a moving ribbon that called for a unified Korea. The coalition emphasized the need for peace with the USA and a formal declaration to end the Korean War. People collected ribbons from around the USA and hung them in the front of the consulate.  The unified flag of one Korea was duct taped to the building and passersby were encouraged to add their messages to the display.
