Camp Crame

“In the hours just before Martial Law was officially announced on the evening of September 23, 1972, the Camp Crame Gymnasium became the site where the first hundred or so political prisoners – those caught from a list of about 400 journalists, educators, politicians, and others on a list of “National List of Target Personalities” who were labeled “subversives” because they had openly criticized Ferdinand Marcos – were brought before they were moved to other facilities such as Fort Magsaysay in Laur, Nueva Ecija or the various detention centers in Fort Bonifacio.”

I will forever remember — for those who lived through it and died because of it — what the Marcos regime did to the Philippines.
