Chosun Journal

The Chosun Journal is an independent, non-profit website that networks communities for human rights in North Korea. It was started in February 2001 and purports to be North Korea's first virtual holocaust museum set in real-time. 
In addition to serving as a portal to the latest news related to North Korean human rights, the journal networks rescuers, refugees, defectors, government officials, intelligentsia, and the media to bring further momentum to the North Korean human rights movement. It has been a resource for academic journals and bestselling books like Natan Sharansky’s The Case for Democracy.
The Journal is premised on the belief that the more people know about the human rights atrocities happening in North Korea, the more pressure the world will bring to bear on the Stalinist regime, resulting in less leeway for the regime to continue abusing the 21 million North Korean people with impunity. It has hosted survivors of North Korean concentration camps to share their testimonies at U.S. college campuses and churches, and was also reportedly behind the asylum of four North Korean refugees via an underground railroad.
Other journal activities involve lobbying government bodies to pass bills that assist persecuted North Korean refugees hiding in China, and petitioning officials to grant leniency to those that are caught seeking asylum.
