Am 19.09.‘24 fand vor dem Bezirksamt Berlin Mitte eine Kundgebung statt, die eine parallel abgehaltene Bezirksversammlung kritisch begleiten sollte. Der Korea-Verband Berlin eV und die AG-“Trostfrauen“ hatten zu dieser Kundgebung aufgerufen. Durch sie sollte nochmals die Forderung nach Erhalt einer Statue, die in Berlin Moabit, Bremer Ecke Birkenstraße steht, laut werden. Sie soll an FLINTA/Frauen und Mädchen erinnern, die von 1931 bis Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges durch die japanische Regierung zur Prostitution als Militärdienst gezwungen worden waren, euphemistich damals „Trostfrauen“ oder eben „Comfort Women“ genannt. Unberücksichtigt von der Tatsache, dass der NS-Staat mit Japan als Teil der "Achse Berlin, Rom, Tokyo" verbündet gewesen war, soll die Statue auf Druck von Seiten der Bezirksbürgermeisterin Berlin Mitte, des regierenden Bürgermeisters Kai Wegner und japanischer Diplomatie bis zum 28. September '24 abgebaut werden. Ein Bericht von der Kundgebung und eines Besuchs im Museum der "Trostfrauen". Den Abschluss bilden Kommentare und Gedanken. Dieser Beitrag enthält Musik. Daher wird er nur einige Tage zugänglich sein.

Over 200,000 women were coerced or forced into sexual slavery in East Asia by the Japanese Imperial Army during World War II. These women, known as comfort women, endured unimaginable suffering and trauma. Few survived to tell their stories, but those who did have shared harrowing testimonies that reveal the depth of their plight. Though once silenced, their voices resonate powerfully through history, ensuring their experiences will never be forgotten. ___ Join the KTC's Discord today! ___ If you enjoy Korean True Crime, please rate, follow, and send feedback!

This episode is different. I am first explaining the issue of Taiwanese comfort women, and then letting yall hear a speech that I gave to a group in Vienna on the only comfort women museum in Taiwan. Stick around for some interesting history and a discussion of museums.
An international fight between Japan and Korea plays out in local Berlin politics. Listen now to stay informed about feminist matters, the easy way.
In this episode of East Asia for All, we examine the sexual slavery system that took place under imperial Japan from 1937-1945 through the graphic novel Grass by Korean author Keum Suk Gendry-Kim. Grass tells the life story of Lee Ok-sun, a Korean girl who was forced to be a “comfort woman” for the Japanese Imperial Army during World War II. We are joined by Dr. Lin Li, Assistant Professor of History at the University of St. Thomas (Saint Paul, MN), on this episode. Dr. Li's research focuses on the intersections of gender, race, health, and imperialism in East Asia. She is currently working on a book project on the politics of representing and commemorating “comfort women” in East Asia, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific.
Japan controlled Taiwan as a colony from 1895 to 1945. During the Second Sino-Japanese War, Chinese language education and publications stopped and the Imperial Subject Movement tried to Japanize residents of Taiwan. The Baojia system was helpful in controlling the locals and confiscating grain during the war. The Taiwanese were mobilized to support the Japanese War Effort and experienced conscription, bombing and the Comfort Women system. The Cairo Declaration in 1943 announced that Taiwan, the Penghu Islands and Manchuria would be part of the Republic of China after Japan's defeat.The Kwantung Army created the puppet state of Manchukuo, with Emperor Puyi as figurehead. Its Unit 731 did biological weapons testing and medical experiments on locals. Opium laced cigarettes were also sold to unsuspecting Chinese. Japanese farmers relocated to Manchuria. Industry and mining flourished. Around 200,000 Chinese women were exploited as Comfort Women, with harrowing stories. Puppet regimes were also established in North China, Inner Mongolia and at Nanjing. The Japanese military, really in control, found benefit in having Chinese figureheads, like Wang Kemin and Wang Jingwei, maintaining appearances of Chinese led local governments.Image: "Japanese HK Occupation Poster 1" by greggman is licensed under CC BY 2.0.

Building on our conversation from earlier this week, Sadie and Stauney delve into the historical treatment of young women, often mere children, across different eras and contexts. We explore the enforced labor within the Magdalene Laundries, the coercion of women into prostitution as "Comfort Women," and the widespread issues of femicide, gender-based violence, and homicide that persist in contemporary society. Our discussion extends to the connections between these historical abuses and present-day challenges, examining the ways societal perceptions of women have influenced our culture. We confront the reality that our world, burdened by shame over its historical errors, struggles to amend the ongoing injustices. TW: abuse, rape, sexual assault, murder, homicide, death (no heavy details, but may still be triggering to some listeners. Take care of yourselves!)

*Trigger Warning: this episode includes content dealing with upsetting, sensitive and potentially triggering themes including sexual violence, torture, and death.* The Japanese Military Sexual Slavery, known as the “Comfort women” history refers to the system of sexual slavery by the Imperial Japanese government during World War II. From 1931 and 1945, between 50,000 and 200,000 girls and women across the Asia Pacific, were forced into sexual servitude where they were raped and abused by the Japanese military. Despite the history having gained international attention as survivors came forward to share their stories, it remains largely unknown and silenced. Regardless, survivors and human rights activists have fought to raise awareness and have demanded appropriate redress, aiming not only for future generations to be accurately educated about this dark history, but also so that this crime against humanity is not repeated. In the first segment, Woohee Kim will provide the audience with a comprehensive understanding of the “comfort women” issue, exploring its historical background during World War II and addressing the current challenges faced by the survivors. We then delve into what it means to appropriately address this issue and promote reconciliation. In the second segment, Phyllis Kim also explores the significance of the Peace monuments in raising awareness around the 'comfort women' issue and provides insights into the activist journey of Grandmother Lee Yong-Soo. We finish with Miki Dezaki, who helps us in debunking the 'comfort women' issue being dismissed as solely a political and emotional topic. He explores the significance of the silencing and denialism of such history and how we can overcome these challenges and achieve resolution and reconciliation through informed and respectful discourse.

The topic of Comfort Women is a delicate topic both politically and emotionally. The term comes from Japanese colonialism and the country's practice of taking young girls from Korea and other conquered nations to the front lines of battle as sexual slaves to the Japanese army. Host Dan and Sug have a brief conversation exploring the topic and how it has impacts upon East-Asian geopolitics to this day. This conversation was recorded on February 8, 2023.

Hundreds of Filipina women were captured and subjected to horrible treatment during World War 2. Decades later, why is justice still elusive? In this episode, you'll hear the stories of “comfort women” and learn about Lila Pilipina, the volunteer organization fighting to keep their stories alive. (Trigger warning: violence, war atrocities) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
On March 4, 2023, Lila Pilipina—an organization of Filipino comfort women —held a protest action in Manila to call on the Japanese government to finally address the calls for justice of Filipino “Comfort Women”, who were victims of Japanese wartime military sex slavery. Japan recently presented its official human rights report to the United Nations Human Rights Council but has continued to ignore the pleas of the Filipino women victims who have been fighting for decades to achieve justice. Similarly, Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. refused to take up the matter with Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida during his most recent state visit to JapanOn today's show, Sharon Cabusao- Silva, Executive Director of Lila Pilipina, on the issue of Filipina comfort women to Japanese military men during the occupation in World War 2

"Comfort women" or ianfu is the euphemism used by the Japanese military for the women they compelled to do sex work in the Second World War. The role of comfort women in history remains a topic of importance — and emotion — around the world. It is well-known that an elaborate series of comfort stations, or comfort houses, were organised by the Japanese administration across Singapore during the Occupation from 1942 to 1945. So why did no local former comfort women come forward and tell their stories when others across Asia began to do publicly in the 1990s? To understand this silence, The Comfort Women of Singapore in History and Memory (National University of Singapore Press, 2022) by Dr. Kevin Blackburn details the sex industry serving the Japanese military during the wartime occupation of Singapore: the comfort stations, managers, procuresses, girls and women who either volunteered or were forced into service and in many cases sexual slavery. Could it be that no former comfort women remained in Singapore after the war? Dr. Blackburn shows through a careful weighing of the different kinds of evidence why this was not the case. The immediate post-war years, and efforts to repatriate or ‘reform' former comfort women fills in a key part of the history. Dr. Blackburn then turns from history to the public presence of the comfort women in Singapore's memory: newspapers, novels, plays, television, and touristic heritage sites, showing how comfort women became known in Singapore during the 1990s and 2000s. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose doctoral work focused on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

To understand this silence, The Comfort Women of Singapore in History and Memory (National University of Singapore Press, 2022) by Dr. Kevin Blackburn details the sex industry serving the Japanese military during the wartime occupation of Singapore: the comfort stations, managers, procuresses, girls and women who either volunteered or were forced into service and in many cases sexual slavery. Could it be that no former comfort women remained in Singapore after the war? Dr. Blackburn shows through a careful weighing of the different kinds of evidence why this was not the case. The immediate post-war years, and efforts to repatriate or ‘reform' former comfort women fills in a key part of the history. Dr. Blackburn then turns from history to the public presence of the comfort women in Singapore's memory: newspapers, novels, plays, television, and touristic heritage sites, showing how comfort women became known in Singapore during the 1990s and 2000s. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose doctoral work focused on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Japanese politicians want to erase the history of the 200,000 women who were forced by the Japanese military into sexual slavery. Statues around the world remember the "comfort women" from places including China, Korea, the Phillipines, and Japan itself, but it's been a battle.

Warning: This episode features the difficult topic of sexual slavery during World War II. Producer Willa Seidenberg talks with recent graduate Hanyu Chen about her thesis, Our Bodies, Their Battlegrounds: The Conservation of Comfort Stations in China. Before and during World War II, the Japanese Imperial Army forced women and girls into sexual slavery for the military in its occupied territories. Their captors called them "comfort women" and their prisons "comfort stations." Two of the few remaining former comfort stations are in Hanyu's hometown.In this episode, Hanyu discusses how the "comfort women" system developed, why these crimes took so long to reach the public eye, and why conserving the few former stations is critical to reclaiming these women's stories.See episode page for transcript, photos, and linksConnect with us @saveasnextgen on Instagram and Facebook

They were called “Comfort Women,” but their lives would not be in any sense comfortable. They were kidnapped, tortured, and held hostage to be assaulted by military officials. Soldiers had their own name for them; it was “public toilets.” Most of these women either died in captivity from murder, disease, or from the sheer violence of their assaults. But don't be fooled by the name, sometimes comfort women were girls as young as 11 years old. Why? Well, wartime always brings out the superstitions in soldiers, and it was believed that assaulting a virgin brought soldiers strength and power. And they would need that strength to go out and kill over 200,000 citizens in the city of Nanking. This might be one of the darkest cases we have covered in a very long time.
