IN THE NEWS - A WARNING FROM SOMEONE WHO KNOWS: EVEN NORTH KOREA IS NOT THIS NUTS; DEFECTOR SLAMS "WOKE" COLUMBIA U

A North Korean defector who attended Columbia University says she sees similarities between the indoctrination in anti-Western sentiment and political correctness in American schools and those in the brutal dictatorship from which she escaped — adding that at Columbia, “they are forcing you to think the way they want you to think.”  Yeonmi Park was 13 when she and her mother fled North Korea in 2007, a voyage that took them to China and into the hands of human traffickers before being rescued by Christian missionaries. 

They ended up in South Korea, and Park, now 27, transferred from a school there to Columbia in 2016.  “I expected that I was paying this fortune, all this time and energy, to learn how to think. But they are forcing you to think the way they want you to think,” Park ​told​ Fox News. “I realized, wow, this is insane. I thought America was different but I saw so many similarities to what I saw in North Korea that I started worrying.”  MORE AT https://nypost.com/2021/06/14/north-korean-defector-slams-woke-us-schools/
