Crossings | Fear of War, Past and Present
Clip: Season 6 Episode 4 | 44sVideo has Closed Captions
Women Cross DMZ witness performances that convey a message of North Korea and the war.
While on their tour of North Korea, the activists of Women Cross DMZ are presented with a mix of theatrical performances. From singing to dancing and live music, the deeper message conveyed is one of violence during the Korean War when the North was attacked. As Gloria Steinem states, "this fear is being kept carefully alive."

But you learn almost as much from what you are shown... As what you are not shown.
We saw a musical production of great skill and beauty with lyrics that were about U.S. imperialism and bombing during the Korean War... bombing from which the North did indeed suffer.
This fear is being kept carefully alive.
