In recognition of the International Day to End Violence Against Women and 16 Days of Activism, we spoke with Sharon Cabusao-Silva, Executive Director of Liga ng mga Lolang Pilipina or LILA Pilipina, on the legacy of our former comfort women, their fdemands for acknowledgment, compensation and justice, and the responsibility of our youth in continuing the fight of/for our Lolas. 

LILA Pilipina is a partner of Gantala Press in producing MY MOTHER IS MORE THAN A COMFORT WOMAN, a storybook in three languages (Filipino, English, and Japanese) put together by Friends of LILA Pilipina. The book is available on shopee.ph/gantala_press. Part of the proceeds will be turned over to LILA Pilipina to support their work.
