Comfort Women "Wednesday Demonstration"
(April 1, 2015)
Peace Monument, Apr 1, 2015 : Students shout slogans around the "Peace Monument" symbolizing Korean Comfort Women during the Second World War, at a weekly anti-Japan rally in front of Japanese embassy in Seoul, South Korea. The protesters lashed out Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe who they insisted, attempts to whitewash Japan's wartime atrocities and refuses to acknowledge Japan's responsibility for the atrocities including sexual enslavement of women during World War II. Abe will address a joint session of Congress of the United States on April 29. A sign (L) reads,"Japanese government investigate its wartime crime and make a public apology!"
