To let others learn from the mistakes of history, we must keep telling our story
At a protest during the anniversary celebration of the EDSA Revolution, I saw this man shouting. With his right arm raised, I realized that this man had been a victim of abuse and punishment in the era of Martial Law.
“Never again! Never again! Huwag tayong papayag na maulit ang Martial Law sa ating bansa.”
“Tay, what brought you here?”
“I was a victim of Martial Law. My family searched for me when police arrested me. They put me behind bars, I didn’t know where I was, which jail I was in. Other prisoners and I managed to escape when Marcos was overthrown.”
