Addendum - The Invasion of South Korea

Aug 25, 2020

Because I'm taking a bit of a vacation this week, here's a shorter special episode. On June 25th, 1950, North Korea invaded South Korea. It's important to understand how people experienced and wrote about these events as they happened, so listen to what was written about the invasion by the Associated Press and published in the Chicago Sunday Tribune. We're just a few weeks away from discussing this historic day in the course of our history of the Korean War. Be sure to subscribe wherever you enjoy podcasts and stay up-to-date on the first season of Coming Together/Coming Apart!
