Yeonmi Park, who fled North Korea with her mother at age 13, criticizes “wokeness” in America. She describes attending Columbia University and the perception among her peers that America is the most oppressive country.
On this episode of the Jordan Peterson Podcast, Jordan was joined by Yeonmi Park. Yeonmi Park is a North Korean defector and human rights activist trying to shine a light on the atrocities still being committed in North Korea by the current Kim regime. She wrote her experiences into a bestseller, ‘In Order to Live.’ She tells stories of her childhood and escaping to remind the world of how terrible things are for North Koreans.
I’ve seen some of her stuff. It’s pretty interesting to see that those who have escaped truly atrocious regimes are some of the most conservative in terms of American political viewpoints. They understand better than any “woke” imbecile professor or university student the reason the founders of this country did what they did.
