Diwa ng pakikibaka ang pamana ng magsasakang Bikolano noon sa kasalukuyang henerasyon
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Pambansang Katipunan ng mga Magbubukid-Bicol |

“Lupa para sa magsasaka!” Nananatili pa ring tumataginting ang panawagan ng mga magsasaka higit lalo ngayon sa panahon ng rehimeng Marcos II. Hindi ito kailanman nagbago, natinag ni nalimot. Pilit mang burahin at baluktutin ng pamilya Marcos ang kasaysayan ng bansa, ang mga salinlahi ng magsasakang mula pa noon ay pinagkakaitan na ng lupa at […]

The spirit of struggle is the Bikolano peasants’ heritage to the current generation
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Pambansang Katipunan ng mga Magbubukid-Bicol |

“Land for the tillers!” The peasants’ demand still reverberates especially now under Marcos II’s regime. This has never changed, wavered nor has been forgotten. Try as the Marcoses’ might, the generation after generation of peasants who have always been deprived of land and justice from the very beginning will be immovable cornerstones who shall protect […]

Tayo naman ngayon: Panata ng kasakukuyang henerasyon sa pagpapatuloy ng laban para sa tunay na katarungan at kalayaan
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

Ngayong ika-50 anibersaryo ng Batas Militar, dapat pakatandaan ng lahat na napakamahal ng kalayaang tinatamasa ng henerasyong ito. Ang bawat hibla ng demokrasyang mayroon ngayon ay pinagbayaran ng luha, dugo at buhay ng hindi mabilang na mga ina, ama, anak at kapatid ng naunang salinlahi. Pinuhunanan ito ng mayayamang buhay ng mga anak ng bayang […]

It is our turn now: the present generation’s pledge to continue the fight for genuine justice and liberty
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Ma. Roja Banua | Spokesperson |

This 50th anniversary of Martial Law, it must be remembered how high the costs of the liberties, that this present generation enjoys, are. Every tiny shred of democracy there is today was paid for by tears, blood and lives of countless mothers, fathers, children, brothers and sisters of the previous generation. The way was paved […]

Kababaihan lumaban at lumaya! Ipagpatuloy ang laban!
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Makabayang Kilusan ng Bagong Kababaihan-Bicol |

Isa sa pinakamalalagim na yugto ng kasaysayan ng kababaihang Pilipino ang batas militar ng 1972. Ilang libong kababaihan ang naging biktima ng tortyur, panggagahasa, abusong sekswal at sikolohikal, iligal na pag-aresto hanggang pamamaslang. Napakaraming tulad nina Yolanda Gordula, Lorena Barros, Liliosa Hilao, Rizalina Ilagan, Leticia Ladlad at Jessica Sales na kung hindi iligal na inaresto […]

The 1972 Martial Law is one of the darkest chapters of Filipino women’s history. Thousands of women have fallen victims of torture, rape, sexual and psychological abuses, illegal arrests and even killings. There are a thousand like Yolanda Gordula, Lorena Barros, Liliosa Hilao, Rizalina Ilagan, Leticia Ladlad and Jessica Sales who if not illegally arrested […]

Ginugunita ng sambayanan ang ika-50 taon ng Batas Militar ng 1972 sa harap ng trahedyang nakapanumbalik sa kapangyarihan ang pinalayas na pamilyang Marcos. Pangulo na ang anak ng diktador na si Bongbong Marcos. Nasaksihan ng sambayanan kung paano siya sinuportahan ng malalaking burukrata kapitalista at imperyalistang US upang makaupo sa pwesto. Simula pa lamang sa […]

The nation marks the 50th year since the declaration of Martial Law in 1972 in the face of the tragedy of the disavowed Marcos family’s return to power. The dictator’s scion, Bongbong Marcos, is now a president. The people has witnessed how big bureaucrat capitalists and the imperialist US buttressed his win. From his vice […]

Make art serve the defense of the people’s history!
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Artista at Manunulat ng Sambayanan-Bicol |

A lesson that artists gleaned from Marcos’ martial law is that art is never just for art’s sake. Art must be for and about the masses. It must choose sides. It must reflect the life and struggle of the people who themselves write and create it. Art cannot just be erased nor lost. It takes […]

Paglingkurin ang mga likha’t kataga para sa pagtatanggol sa kasaysayan ng mamamayan!
September 21, 2022 | National Democratic Front of the Philippines | NDF-Bicol | Artista at Manunulat ng Sambayanan-Bicol |

Isang aral na natutunan ng mga alagad ng sining sa panahon ng batas militar ni Marcos, Sr. ay na ang sining ay hindi para sa sining lamang. Ang sining ay para at tungkol sa masa. Ito ay may dapat panigan. Sumasalamin sa buhay at pakikibaka ng masang siya ring nagsulat at naghulma. Ang sining ay […]
