Hanna Song: How to ensure North Korean voices are not forgotten

She shares her perspective on the controversy over the all-male speaker lineup for the Global Korean Forum earlier this year and the importance of including women and defectors. She also talks about innovative approaches to raising public awareness about DPRK human rights and ensuring that North Korean voices are not forgotten.  Hanna Song is the executive director of NKDB. She previously appeared on episode 209.
