Sample cell of a prisoner. In this kind of cell, many were tortured. A professor in UP, Roland Simbulan, were telling F and I how the real thng actually didn't have any bars--it was enclosed (in darkness! Only the hall had lights) and there is a small opening below where the food tray was pushed inside.

Also according to Simbulan, the toilet was just a hole in the ground with an overhanging faucet. There you do everything!

It was my first time to attend a commemoration of the martial law era here in the Philippines! A bit embarrassing, as it is the period in our hstory I am most interested in. F and I went to the Bantayog ng mga Bayani (they texted me the night before), and naturally, I took shots of the event and the place.
