✊ Le 14 août est depuis 2012 le jour choisi par la onzième Asian Alliance Conference for Comfort Women en Corée du Sud pour commémorer les « #comfortwomen », des femmes qui en Asie de l’Est, étaient utilisées par l’armée du Japon et devaient avoir des rapports seksuels imposés avec des soldats de cette armée tout au long de la seconde guerre mondiale (Source : Histoire des luttes )
📷 Photos ( @Normancruz) : Les membres de l’Alliance #FlowersforLolas, composée d'anciennes victimes philippines et de leurs soutiens ont organisé le 14 août 2025 un rassemblement de protestation sur le site où se tenait un monument qui était dédié à cette mémoire alors que le monde commémore le 80e anniversaire de la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale.
📷 La statue anciennement installée à Manille rendant hommage aux « comfort women » de Philippine a été retirée de son emplacement public en 2018 par les autorités de la ville avant d'être - selon la version officielle - volée chez un particulier. Installée en 2017 pour ne pas oublier les victimes philippines de l’esclavage sexuel sous l’occupation japonaise, la statue de la "Femme de réconfort" au Baywalk de la baie de Manille a servi de rappel solennel de l’injustice historique et de symbole de la liberté d’expression.

This video explores the significance of Korea's Liberation Day and its parallels with the Palestinian struggle for freedom. We examine the historical events that have shaped our world and the ways in which our liberation is tied to each other's. From the Korean War to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, we delve into the complexities of colonialism, occupation, and resistance. Join us as we celebrate Liberation Day and look towards a future of solidarity and unity.
> Public servants referred to the camptown sex workers here as “comfort women” — the same infamous euphemism used for women forced into sexual slavery by the Japanese imperial army. Each week, medics would come by to test the camptown women for venereal diseases and cart off anybody who tested positive. When they were finally released a week later, they looked like death warmed over.
That was the horrific place where we made the acquaintance of Kim Ae-ran..
