Rhea Santos prioritizes her responsibilities |
|
WOMAN can possess both splendor and strength.
For one, the symbol of justice (Justitia, the Roman goddess of
justice) comes not in a form of a knight in shining armor but of a
blindfolded woman holding a sword and a scale. A sort of parallelism
can be said about popular broadcast journalist Rhea Santos. Santos,
considered one of the most beautiful faces on Philippine television,
is aggressively pushing a campaign against domestic violence through
her weekly TV program Women’s Desk. Aiming to combat a menace that
has been surreptitiously creeping in many households for so long,
the program encourages victims of domestic violence to come out, be
heard and fight back. Basagin ang katahimikan [break the silence] is
the program’s resounding credo.
