Yeonmi Park: Why Western culture wars are worse than life in North Korea
•
Yeonmi Park fled North Korea for freedom. Now she's a victim of the West's tyranny of “woke”. In this first episode of The Telegraph’s newest podcast, she tells Steven Edginton why the Western culture wars can be even more oppressive than life under Kim Jong-un. Cancel culture, guilt by association and censorship are all things she's experienced not under the dictatorship, she tells listeners, but in the West.
