Prison walls and iron bars can only lock away our bodies
but not our minds, our thoughts and what we stand for.

A Red Rose for Andrea: Writings from Prison


"The number of documented victims of extrajudicial killings is much higher than the number of political prisoners:
350 political prisoners over more than a thousand extrajudicial killings [in the Philippines in the last 10 years]."
