Details About DonginRyun ( Solidarity for LGBT Human Rights of Korea )
Rainbow folks dreaming of another world without any discriminations
DonInRyun started as LGBT association of Korean University in 1997 and has changed its name to the current organisation, DonInRyun in 1998, and since then our organisation as one LGBT representative has been leading LGBT activity till now. Many gender diversities, such as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender/Transexual and Intersexual come together to achieve the society respecting the human rights of minorities. Any heterosexuals who are in favour of minorities human rights are able to join our activism on equal terms. As the diversity is valued, all our members are endeavoring to enhance the human rights sensitivity of all of themselves with respecting each other so as to avoid any unintended-discriminations against other members, based on disease, education, age, gender, and sexuality.
Embracing a hope of Rainbow being tied up with action and solidarity
With the main activity principles like Action and Solidarity, DongInRyun dreams of an equal society in where the human rights of social minorities are valued. As every single human being is different, all sexual minorities are leading their diverse lives as labourer, woman, the disabled, migrant worker, youth, and PLWHA(People living with HIV/AIDS). We believe that discriminations and oppressions against the sexual minority can be wiped off when the social minority and the vulnerable join our actions, along with the support and advocacy from the heterosexual. Therefore we should not to turn away our heads about the discrimination against others and have to seek solutions together.
Being different is just 'unlikeness' that is worthy of respect.
Hatred against homosexuality in the recent Korean society is emerging more visibly. If the hatred and violence continues, the sexual minority cannot help living only as invisible existence. DongInRyun believes the great participation of the heterosexual in our actions is necessarily required so as to fight against the oppression and discrimination against the sexual minority. To fight against the disabled discrimination, you do not have to be a disabled person. To fight against poverty, you do not have to be poor. Likewise, to fight against the discrimination of sexual minorities, you are fine to be heterosexual. DongInRyun will make efforts to bring up an even more equal and peaceful society, along with every person who is in favour of the human rights of sexual minorities
