Han Seong-Won – Grandmothers, Our Grandmothers
Remembering the "Comfort Women" of World War II
They have waited 75 years for an acknowledgment that what was done to them was a war crime. They are still waiting.
Grandmothers, Our Grandmothers is a beautifully and sensitively rendered narrative of the ongoing crusade of WWII's most courageous survivors: the "Comfort Women"—sex slaves—of the Japanese Imperial Army. This offering in graphic novel format is both a moving tribute and a call to awareness that, though addressing young adults, speaks to all of us.
This is a warm and loving tribute to the Grandmothers and the courage which led them to speak out. This book is a call to all of us to stand up for the basic rights of others.
