Panoorin Natin!

It’s now December, and once again, we remember and consolidate our ranks to uphold human rights in the Philippines and in the world. Included in the numerous Human Rights victims are the 300 and more political detainees here in the Philippines who are suffering political persecution due to their beliefs and advocacies. Ericson Acosta, a writer and artist is one of them. Friends of Ericson Acosta, Human Rights Advocates, the Families of Political Prisoners together with the Pinoy Media Center, an independent media outfit here in the Philippines come together to restage POLDET: Panata para sa Kalayaan ng mga Detenidong Pulitikal.

In this light, we are inviting you to watch Poldet, a multi-media production about different experiences and the determination of our Filipino Political Prisoners.

More details Below.

Please reblog if you believe that Human Rights Violations should be put to a stop.

The show will also highlight the plight of current political prisoners including poet Alan Jazmines, film student Maricon Montajes and cultural worker Ericson Acosta.

Acosta’s songs and poetry, which earned him a nomination as finalist in the prestigious 2011 Imprisoned Artist Prize of international group Freedom to Create, will be featured in POLDET.

Petition-signing will be held at the KARAPATAN information booth. You may also write a petition letter or send a petition-postcard to Philippine authorities. Blank postcards will also be available for anyone who may wish to send them to any political prisoner.

Police brutality in the Philippines.

I can’t help not to cry while viewing the dispersal pictures from yesterday.

Short background:

The City Government of Manila issued an ordinance prohibiting motorized pedicabs or kuliglig’s from taking main routes. In response, the drivers and operators of said transport held a picket in front of Manila City hall in protest of said ordinance.

This is the Manila City Hall’s response.
