Comfort Women : Slave of Destiny Analysis


The autobiography of Rosa Henson’s is one of the living proofs of victimhood. She was outspoken, intelligent and courageous woman who overcome great odds to become a champion of justice for the most secret and silent victims of World War II.

During the Japanese invasion  in Pampanga,  she was forced to be a comfort woman. Because Japanese failed in accomplishing their plan, one of the soldiers suspected the strange actions of Rosa so she was dragged and mercilessly beaten, freed and prisoned. She spent the next nine months of her life in this way. Herded to comfort saturations and repeatedly raped by the soldiers of Japanese Imperial Army, Rosa did not give up her life and endure all. She fought hard for justice for comfort women. They withstood violence and humiliation that hey commonly experienced in the hands of the Japanese soldiers. Although she started life painfully with only faith in God and love for her mother she was able to overcome it all.

If I were in Lola Rosa’s shoes, I probably lose my sanity halfway. I admired her for being brave and strong. She influenced and inspired women by her story. Whatever struggle that comes to your life, if you have the courage with the purpose of fighting for the justice then you can overcome and survive like Rosa Henson.
