Korean student shares a secret:

In the beginning of the semester, my Political Science professor taught the class that there are two types of political participants and they can be classified as either gladiators or spectators.

If you follow the segment “Dreamie of the Week” on our website, you may be familiar with Ju Hong. Ju was brought to this country from South Korea in 2001; he was twelve years old at the time. Since arriving in the U.S., he has excelled in his studies and is currently the student body president at a community college in the San Francisco Bay area.

In the DREAM Act movement, Ju is a gladiator. He has given many speeches and presentations on the DREAM Act and the struggles of DREAM Act students at rallies and events. Recently, he has created a website JoinJu.com in order to reach out to the Korean American community and urge them to support the struggles undocumented Korean students living in the U.S.

As a result of his amazing activism, Ju has been garnering a lot of attention by having his story published in The Oakland Tribune and channelAPA. Not only has he shown great activism, but he has also shown unbelievable bravery and courage by publicly displaying his story for thousands and millions of people to see. His story has allowed people who weren’t familiar with this injustice to be touched by it and for those who were, to look at this issue from a different, more humane perspective.

Undocumented students have waited long enough. It’s time to make Ju’s dream a reality and pass the DREAM Act. Visit JoinJu.com and join the fight.
