'저는 그들의 땅을 지키기 위하여 싸웠던 인디안들의 이야기를 기억합니다. 백인들이 그들의 신성한 숲에 도로를 만들기 위하여 나무들을 잘랐습니다. 매일밤 인디안들이 나가서 백인들이 만든 그 길을 해체하면 그 다음 날 백인들이 와서 도로를 다시 짓곤 했습니다. 한동안 그 것이 반복되었습니다. 그러던 어느날, 숲에서 가장 큰 나무가 백인들이 일할 동안 그들 머리 위로 떨어져 말과 마차들을 파괴하고 그들 중 몇몇을 죽였습니다. 그러자 백인들은 떠났고 결코 다시 오지 않았습니다….' (브루스 개그논)

[Jeju update] Yang got the restraint warrant/ Protest for the release of Yang is widely spread/ People prevent construction again

많은 분들의 고마운 노력으로 강정 마을회 웹사이트에 최근 4~6일의 많은 뉴스가 있습니다. 링크 클릭 _______________________________________________ The Jeju local court decided to give Yang the restraint warrant on April 8, 2011, despite people's high criticism against police violence during the arrest of him on April 6 (See the below video). The charges against him were business-interruption and violence deeds. He has been released only three months before when he got out of jail in the Jeju provincial prison. He is a hero in the struggle against the jeju naval base construction.

Yang on April 6, 2011 The protest by the people including villagers are spreading domestically and internationally. MacGregor Eddy, United States thankfully worked to spread the news on him and solidarity petition. Click HERE. She also sent the letter to many people as the below on April 8, 2011. "In NY there is a permanent mission of ROK (South Korean) to the United Nations. You can call from anywhere in the world, the phone number is 212 439 4000 and ask for 1st Secretary Cho at extension 229. She is the Human Rights desk officer. Inquire about the brutal treatment of the Jeju Islanders who are resisting the destruction of their lovely island to build a Navy base! Ask about the condition of distinguished film critic professor Yang, who was injured by the police on April 6th. He is in jail on a hunger strike right now. The UN mission is sensitive about human rights violations. If you get voice mail leave a message. Please call now, it will not take long. I just called them. They say they will investigate! MacGregor Eddy 831 206 5043 Global Network for detail see this slide show https://docs.google.com/present/view?id=dfpxc5ff_1273dd4n66cf&interval=5&autoStart=true&loop=true on a personal note, my friend Sung-Hee Choi, who was also arrested with Prof Yang but not as badly handled, once arranged 150 Koreans to sign protests of my arrest at Vandenberg AFB! I am trying to return the same level support so please please please make this one call! You can also call the embassy nearest you as well" Villagers after the court decision on the restraint warrant to Yang Yoon-Mo, movie critic on April 8,2011. * Image source: Headline Jeju http://www.headlinejeju.co.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=112561 Yang laying down his body to block the truck on April 4, 2011. Two days later, he was arrested along with Choi, during the similar protest, as in the below video. On April 3 when there was a movie screening on April 3 Jeju uprising and massacre, he has said that the 4.3 was special for him because it was his grandmother’s (mothers' side) brothers who had been the very those first ones killed by the police during the March 1 independence protest in 1948, which became the cause of the Jeju uprising in April 3, 1948. He expressed his resolute decision to fight against naval base construction which can be called as the second 4. 3.
