60 years later, the Korean War is not over, and Korea is still divided.<\/p>\n
In 1945, two U.S. colonels in Washington D.C. divided the Korean peninsula along the 38th parallel. This arbitrary divide soon became a border and military frontline before and during the Korean War. An Armistice temporarily ceased fighting on the Korean peninsula and established the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) along the 38th parallel. A peace treaty was never signed, and to this day, Korea remains in a state of war.<\/p>\n
The National Campaign to End the Korean War is bringing the DMZ back to Washington D.C. Join us from July 25-27 for a series of events that show how we continue to be affected by the division and demand the U.S. government end the Korean War by signing a peace treaty.<\/p>\n
