August 14, 2023

From February until May 2023, our family of Bees went to the Asia Pacific region to tour with the Beehive’s True Cost of Coal and Mesoamérica Resiste graphics, inspiring discussions about the intersections of colonialism, resource extraction, corporate globalization, workers movements and climate change. All in all, we did over 100 presentations at 70 different events, including an 8,000-person electronic music festival, a buddhist temple, bookstores, occupations, street parties, community centres, conferences, cafes, protests and 12 different schools, from middle schools to universities in Aotearoa, Australia, Indonesia, the Philippines, South Korea and Japan.

Continuing the protest last week, we headed back to Geoje once more. Although there were ups and downs, in the end, on July 2nd, the workers in Yeongnam workers protest decided to head to the direction of the subcontracted workers of Daewoo Shipbuilding(DSME) in Geoje in solidarity. Before heading to Geoje, on Thursday, June 30, after taking part on the Sejong Hotel Thursday rally in solidarity, we took on our turn of the sit-down, and then immediately on July 1, along with the fired workers of the Sejong Hotel, we marched on foot to Yongsan. The asphalt already looked as if they were pumping steam.
