On February 1, after a democratic election, the Burmese military seized control of the government and declared a year-long state of emergency. Burmese people have been protesting that takeover, and the military has cracked down with deadly use of force, killing hundreds including children. Demonstrations in solidarity have also been held around the world, including in San Francisco. Ko Ko Lay, co-founder of Free Burma Action Committee, and Jane Pak, adjunct professor at the University of San Francisco, both of whom are board members of Refugee and Immigrant Transitions, talk about how these events have affected people living in Burma and the Bay Area.
