Can you hear their voices?

Can You Hear their Voices?  was a unique event at the Palisades Park Public Library.
It honored and raised funds for the Comfort Women at the House of Sharing in Korea who were sexually enslaved during World War II.  Below you will see clips from the event, as well as an impassioned talk by Dai Sil Kim-Gibson, author of the book Silence Broken, on the silent suffering of these women.
