Violent repression
A friend of mine got hurt last Tuesday when a peaceful rally on Plaza Miranda in downtown Manila was dispersed. The police used water cannons and truncheons to drive the crowd away. I was out of town and could contact her only this morning when she reassured me she was doing fine after losing lots of hair and blood and gaining seven stitches. Apparently she hadn't lost her fighting spirit either. (Text / pictures)
