Key FOIA documents on Gwangju 5.18

Posted on May 27, 2020 by Tim Shorrock

This was our initial post for the online database we are building of the 4,000 declassified US government documents obtained under FOIA on the US role in the Gwangju Uprising of 1980. The original copies of the documents known in Korea as the “Cherokee File,” are permanently stored and available for research at Gwangju’s 5.18 Archives in South Korea. 

Screenshot 2020-05-27 13.11.28This list includes many of the key documents first reported in my initial 1996 stories on the US role in South Korea in 1979 and 1980. These were obtained between 1996 and 2006. A few of them were fully declassified on that date as well.
