Nodutdol's mission is to promote the self-determination and unification of the Korean people through community development and grassroots organizing. Based in New York City, Nodutdol seeks to bridge the divisions of war, nation, gender, class, language, and generation by creating a broader definition of what it means to be Korean. With a perspective that critically analyzes the impact of imperialism, patriarchy, heterosexism, racism, and capitalism, Nodutdol seeks to build solidarity between Koreans and the struggles of other peoples as part of the larger movement for progressive social change. Nodutdol believes in a Korean community based on a common vision of democracy, social and economic justice, and self-determination.
