In memory
of the more than 200,000
women and girls who were
abducted by the armed forces of
the government of Imperial Japan
1930's - 1945
Known as "Comfort Women,"
they endured human rights
violations that no people should
leave unrecognized.
Let us never forget the horrors
of crimes against humanity.
