 Her commitment to democracy amongst immense pushback has motivated me to keep fighting for the causes that I believe in. When I was in high school, I attended multiple Rappler social good summits. They were all avenues for me to meet people committed to the causes they believe in. I met so many early supporters of WETAC during those events and even heard Maria Ressa speak. Her work with Rappler is inspiring, to say the least. It has brought so many people together.
