A group of activists, scholars, and members of the public convened in Washington last week in hopes of bringing an end to the Korean War, which has been stuck in a perpetual ceasefire without a formal peace agreement for seven decades.
Gathered in a crowded classroom at George Washington University in Washington, academics, peace activists, and individuals whose families were torn apart by the conflict held a conference to mark the 70th anniversary of the armistice that paused—but didn’t end—the Korean War.
