I wrote an essay for @nytimes on the arrest of Rodrigo Duterte. I am grateful to the many families of the dead, who, after almost a decade, are still willing to tell their stories.

There is no language I can use to articulate how much this means to me. It is humbling to know such courage and grace can exist in someone who had to live through such unimaginable hell.
