IN HONOR OF MEMORIAL DAY: During World War II, President Franklin Roosevelt pledged that Filipinos who fight for the United States will be granted citizenship and military benefits. As a result, over 200,000 Filipinos fought side by side with American soldiers during World War II. Shortly after the war ended, that promise was taken back with the Recission Act of 1946. It was not until 2009 when President Obama signed a bill that would give Filipino World War II veterans a lump sum compensation of $15K ($9K for those living in the Philippines) to the less than 18,000 veterans who are still alive today. Yes, such an amount is not commensurate to the benefits they missed out on for over 50 years, but yet to this day a majority of them still have not received such meager compensation. So, LET US REMEMBER THE FILIPINO VETERANS WHO WERE NOT ONLY VICTIMS OF WORLD WAR II, BUT ALSO VICTIMS OF INSTITUTIONALIZED RACISM.

I just came for Kibum pics.
Edit:
Now that I'm more active, I guess I should say more.
Call me Dena. I really like Kibum of Super Junior. I'm a sucker for smiles. Donghae and Heechul are my other two biases.
I'm a Christian. God is, like, IT. There's nothing like his presence. And the Bible's great.
I have a big family and few friends. Not really as into friends as my family. Love both, though.
I'm in USA, born and raised. I only speak/understand/read/write English (and very little Spanish).
FYI: When I say I ship Kibum/anyone, I mean I like seeing him act friendly with anyone. It's not meant in a romantic way.
And I want to know his address to send him stuff, not stalk him or anything. I can't from the USA anyway.
Also, the pics and gifs I share are NOT mine, unless I state otherwise.
