Courage
I heard this amazing woman speak at lunchtime. She's 90 and is one of the few remaining survivors of the Japanese WW2 system of sexual slavery - the so-called "comfort women". She's visiting a number of European countries alongside a Korean NGO which has been supporting survivors in their campaign for justice for the last 25 years. They're still campaigning for a full apology from the Japanese government.
I didn't have my camera with me at the event so this is a photo of a video of her. The video was shot a few years ago on one of their regular demonstrations outside the Japanese embassy. For more information about the history see here and she told her own experience in this interview.
