My friend Jess has been involved with Crossing Borders, a non-profit organization that was established in Chicago in 2002 to aid North Korean refugees who escape to China. They've recently expanded their presence to New York, and next month, they're holding a benefit concert to raise funds as well as introduce folks to the organization's initiatives on behalf of the people of North Korea.
