Unfortunately the conversation with Maria Ressa is cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances. We apologize for this and hopefully she will visit us at another time.
“When I was first arrested in 2019, the officer said, “Ma’am, trabaho lang po,” (Ma’am, I’m only doing my job). Then he lowered his voice to almost a whisper as he read my Miranda rights. He was clearly uncomfortable, and I almost felt sorry for him. Except he was arresting me because I’m a journalist!” – Maria Ressa
Philippine journalist Maria Ressa was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2021 for her search for truth and work for freedom of expression.
