Dear Volunteers and Staff,

let's gather this Thursday (11/8) at 6:30pm at KRC to re-start the regular study group sessions. As we discussed in by the end of the Summer, we will be holding regular sessions in which someone will bring a film, followed by a discussion on it. We haven't been able to meet the last couple weeks due to Health Day and the fundraiser, but this seems like a good time to pick it up again.

If you have a good film to share, please bring it. (And if you have the time, please let me know at yk [at] krcla.org or 323-937-3718)

These are the topics we have covered to date:

* 7/19 Asian American Immigration: Chinese Americans and Asian Exclusion Acts (Andrew Jung, Reading:)
* 8/2 Korean American Immigration: History between 1909-1965 (Hyejin Kim and Yongho Kim, Reading:)
* 8/23 Korean American Immigration: New Trends on Employment-Based Immigration and Wealth Disparities in the '90s and 2000's (DJ)
* 8/31 Korean American Societal Composition and Political Activism after 1965 (Inbo Sim)
* 9/6 Korean American Organizing (Eun Sook Lee, Reading: Political Awakening of Korean Americans)
* 9/13 First Gulf War
* 9/25 Health Reform
