These laws increased fear and discrimination among the African American community in the north and pushed them to fight for abolition and equality.

Have north Koreans escaped from North Korea?

Yes! in fact many North Koreans have escaped through China and into other nations. Usually they must find a way into the South Korean or U.S. embassy in China in order to finally be free however because China has a strict anti-North Korean immigrant policy and will deport the individual back to North Korea. If the person is sent back to North Korea they will be sent into one of the many North Korean labor camps. Very few North Korean's have escaped to South Korea through the DMZ but it has happened.
