Disasters: Deconstructed Podcast
Society & Culture
Welcome back to Disasters: Deconstructed!
As we continue our exploration of solidarity in season 8, we are really happy to share this conversation we had with Dr Areum Jeong. Areum holds a PhD in Theater and Performance Studies from the University of California, Los Angeles. Her training consists of a thorough grounding in the history of theater and performance, and her work takes a transnational approach to twentieth and twenty-first-century Asian and Asian American cinema, theater and performance. Areum is currently working on an upcoming book on the aftermath of the Sewol ferry disaster.
Listen in to this conversation about the Sewol Ferry Disaster and how the victims' families - particularly mothers - have organized and agitated politically using artistic expression.
Thanks to Dr. Jeong for spending time with us!
