World War II Mixed Race Children Stir Asian Society
A UPI report by Leon Daniel Hong and others chronicles thousands of mixed race children born to American GIs and Asian women, facing severe discrimination across South Korea Vietnam and other Asian communities. It profiles individual case histories including Lee Jung-soo and notes in Korea about identity and hardship. It also cites Hodges of the American Kor Asian Foundation and mentions postwar attitudes in Saigon amid evacuations. A Buenos Aires dispatch reports a police death from terrorists in Moron.
