  • Yue Takada from Japan reads messages posted on the outside wall of the War & Women's Human Rights Museum in Seoul, South Korea. Takada visited the museum with other participants in an August 2016 peacemaking seminar for Japanese and Korean young women. As they confronted historic tensions between their two peoples, they learned about the thousands of women who were forced into sexual slavery by the Japanese military during World War II--the so-called "comfort women." Visitors to the museum were encouraged to write their own messages to leave on the wall.<br />

  • Ami Uematsu (right) and Yue Takada, both from Japan, read messages posted on the outside wall of the War & Women's Human Rights Museum in Seoul, South Korea. They visited the museum with other participants in an August 2016 peacemaking seminar for Japanese and Korean young women. As they confronted historic tensions between their two peoples, they learned about the thousands of women who were forced into sexual slavery by the Japanese military during World War II--the so-called "comfort women." Visitors to the museum were encouraged to write their own messages to leave on the wall.<br />
