Former NBA star Dennis Rodman, who is one of the only U.S. nationals to ever meet North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, will take part in an event examining "alternative tools of diplomacy" to use with the North at the prestigious U.S. Military Academy in West Point this Friday.
Rodman will be joined by Dr. Joe Terwilliger – a geneticist from Columbia University who accompanied him on three of his four trips to North Korea – an event advisory released by the academy said on Saturday.
