Hindi Kami Bulag Sa Kadiliman at Paniniil Ng Panahong Marcos! Hindi kami bulag sa kadiliman at paniniil ng panahong Marcos! Pahayag ng mga kasapi ng Pamantasang Ateneo de Manila tungkol sa rehimeng Batas Militar at sa pagbaluktot ni Bongbong Marcos sa kasaysayan 7 Marso 2016 “Ipaubaya natin ang kasaysayan sa mga propesor, sa mga nag-aaral tungkol sa kasaysayan ng Pilipinas. Kami hindi namin trabaho yan. Ang trabaho namin ay tingnan kung ano ba ang pangangailangan ng taong bayan ngayon.” – Ferdinand Romualdez Marcos, Jr. Bilang tugon sa hamon ni Ferdinand “Bongbong” Romualdez Marcos, Jr. na dapat husgahan ng mga guro at mag-aaral ng kasaysayan ang administrasyong Marcos, kaming mga nakalagdang kasapi ng komunidad ng Ateneo de Manila ay maigting na tumututol at kumukundena sa patuloy at sadyang pagbaluktot ng ating kasaysayan. Matindi naming ikinalulungkot ang walang-kahihiyang pagtanggi sa pag-ako ng mga krimen ng rehimeng Batas Militar. Hindi namin tinatanggap ang pagbaluktot ng kasaysayan, ang kabaga-bagabag na pananaw sa kinabukasan, at ang mababaw na hamon ng “pagkakaisa” na inihahain ni Marcos, Jr, at ng mga kandidato sa halalan ng 2016 na tulad niyang mag-isip. Malaking naging pinsala sa pag-unlad ng ekonomiya ng bansa ang malaking panlabas ng pangungutang na ginawa ng rehimeng Marcos. Hindi naging interesado ang rehimen sa kaunlaran para sa lahat, pangmatagalang pagpapapatatag sa estado, ni sa tunay na pagbabago ng lipunan, sa kabila ng retorika nito ng “Bagong Lipunan”. Sa halip, higit na pinagtuunan ni Marcos ang pagpapatibay ng paghawak niya ng kapangyarihan sa pamamagitan ng pagpabor sa mga kamag-anak, kaibigan, at iba pa nilang kasabwat. Kaya bumuo lamang si Marcos ng mga bagong naghaharing-uri o mga “oligarch” sa halip na buwagin ang mga ito—ang ibinandila niyang isa sa mga dahilan niya sa pagpapataw ng batas militar. Ang mga nangahas humamon sa pagkamkam ng rehimen sa kapangyarihan--mga pulitiko, mangangalakal, aktibistang pulitikal, organisadong manggagawa, magsasaka o maralitang tagalunsod, taong Simbahan, mag-aaral; bata o matanda, mayaman o mahirap—ay tinakot, ikinulong, idinukot, pinahirapan o pinatay nang walang paglilitis. Hinding-hindi namin kalilimutan ang mga kalapastanganang ginawa ng rehimeng Marcos, at muli naming hinihingi na maiharap sa hustisya ang mga gumawa ng ganitong krimen. Inuulit din namin ang aming paninindigan na dapat ay walang-tigil na habulin at bawiin ng pamahalaan ang lahat ng nakaw na yamang nakamal ng pamilyang Marcos at ng kanilang mga kasabwat. Higit pa rito, ang mga biktima at ang kanilang mga pamilya ay dapat mabigyan ng katarungan at buong kabayaran. Anumang hamon na magkaisa, lalo na mula sa mga tagapagmana ng rehimeng Marcos na matinding pinagwatak-watak ang bansa, ay walang laman at walang kahulugan kung hindi naitataguyod ang katotohanan at katarungan. Pinagtitibay namin ang aming pangako, bilang mga guro at tagahubog, na laging ituro ang katotohanan. Aming ipapaalala na ang panahon ng diktaduryang Marcos ang isa sa pinakamadilim na yugto ng kasaysayan ng Pilipinas. Muli naming pinagtitibay ang aming pananagutan bilang mga guro at prupesyunal na panatilihing buhay ang diwa ng EDSA 1986 sa pamamagitan ng pagpapamalay sa kabataan na ang mga istruktura, gawain at ideya—kabilang na ang napakaraming kasinungalingan— na nagpahintulot sa administrasyong Marcos na ipataw at igiit nang matagalan ang sarili nito, ay dapat buwagin at hindi na muling payagang yumabong. Kasabay nito, kikilos kami para matupad ang pangarap ng EDSA para sa higit na makatarungan at demokratikong lipunan. Tinatanggihan namin ang argumentong hindi “uubra” ang demokrasya sa Pilipinas at tanging isang diktadurya, mapagkalinga man o hindi, ang makapaghahatid sa ating bansa sa kasaganaan. Sa halip, dapat nating isulong at pagyamanin ang kakayahan sa demokrasya ng ating mga mamamayan at institusyon upang umunlad tayo bilang isang bansa. Kahit patuloy na umiiral ang di-pagkakapantay- pantay at kawalang-katarungan, naniniwala kami na ang kalutasan ng mga suliraning ito ay nakasalalay sa pagpapalalim ng ating mga demokratikong institusyon at gawain, pagpapalakas sa mga naisasantabi, at pagtitiyak na may pananagutan ang ating mga pinuno at ang ating sarili. Kinukundena namin, nang buong tindi at igting, ang pagtatangka ng ilang tao at lalo na ng mga lingkod-bayan, na linisin ang walang-pakundangang paglabag sa karapatang pantao ng rehimeng Marcos at ang pagbabaluktot nito sa rekord nito sa pulitika at ekonomiya. Hinahamon namin ang lahat nating pulitiko, lalo na ang mga tumatakbo sa pambansa at lokal na eleksyon ngayong 2016, na malinaw na manindigan tungkol sa mga pang-aabuso ng diktaduryang Marcos. Hinahamon namin sila na sumama sa tawag naming hinding-hindi na muling pahintulutan na magkaugat ang mga binhi ng paniniil sa ating lipunan. Hinihingi namin na ang lahat ng tuwiran o di-tuwirang nakilahok at nanagana sa rehimen ay humingi ng paumanhin at, kung kinakailangan, pagbayaran ang kanilang papel sa rehimen o ang kanilang pagtataguyod nito. At pang-huli, tinatanggihan namin ang anumang pagtatangka na ilibing bilang bayani si Ferdinand E. Marcos sa Libingan ng mga Bayani. Nanunumpa kami bilang mga guro at tagahubog na ipagpatuloy ang paglalahad ng mga kuwento ng karahasan at kabulukan ng pamilya, rehimen at matatalik na kasabwat ng mga Marcos. Hinahangad naming panatilihing buhay ang mga simulain at kabayanihan ng maraming matapang na Pilipino na lumaban sa rehimen. Habang patuloy naming ginugunita at ibinabahagi ang mga kuwentong ito, naniniwala kami na ang mga darating na henerasyon ng Pilipino ay matututo sa mga aral ng mga taon ng pakikibaka na nagbunga ng pagpapatalsik sa diktadurya noong mga makasaysayang araw ng People Power Revolution noong 1986. Ipinangangalandakan at ikinakalat ng mga loyalista at tagapagbaluktot ng mga Marcos na “nabigo” ang People Power Revolution. Matindi naming tinututulan ang ganito. Tunay na pagbabalikwas ng madla at tagumpay laban sa diktadurya ang People Power Revolution. Gayunpaman, hindi pa tapos ang rebolusyon. Ang kabuuan ng demokratisasyon, lalo na ang paglikha ng kaayusang panlipunan na gumagalang sa dignidad ng lahat ng mga Pilipino, ay dapat pang matupad. Pananagutan natin bilang sambayanan na ipagpatuloy at buuin ang pakikibakang hindi pa natatapos. Dapat tayong magsimula sa katotohanan. Ginoong Marcos, mga pinunong tapat sa katotohanan ng kasaysayan ang siyang kailangan ng taong bayan ngayon! Ang nakalagdang 534, 7 Marso 2016, 12 p.m., 1. Fr. Karel S.

  • The Filipino Ringside Community: National Identity and the Heroic
    THE FILIPINO RINGSIDE COMMUNITY : NATIONAL IDENTITY AND THE HEROIC MYTH OF MANNY PACQUIAO A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Communication, Culture and Technology By Margaret Louise Costello, B.A. Washington, DC April 30, 2009 THE FILIPINO RINGSIDE COMMUNITY : NATIONAL IDENTITY AND THE HEROIC MYTH OF MANNY PACQUIAO Margaret Louise Costello, B.A. Thesis Advisor: Mirjana Dedaic, PhD ABSTRACT One of the main parallels between sport and national identity is that they are both maintained by ritual and symbolism. In the Philippine context, the spectator sport of boxing has grown to be a phenomenon in recent years, perhaps owing to the successive triumphs of contemporary Filipino pugilists in the international boxing scene. This thesis focuses on the case of Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao whose matches bring together contemporary Philippine society into a “ringside community”, a collective united by its support of a single fighter bearing the brunt for the nation. I assert that Pacquiao’s stature has transcended that of the sports realm, as he is constructed as a national (i.e., not just sport) hero. As such, I study this phenomenon in two ways. The first part of my analysis focuses on how a narrative of heroism has been instilled in Philippine society through the active promotion of its past heroes. Inherent to this study’s discussion of the Filipino ringside community and heroism is the notion of the habitus. Defined by Pierre Bourdieu as a set of inculcated dispositions which generate practices and perceptions, “a present past that tends to perpetuate itself into the future by reactivation in similarly structured practices” (Bourdieu, 6), the concept of habitus can be directly applied to how the need for a heroic narrative has been inculcated within Philippine contemporary society.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT Unlike communist parties elsewhere in Asia, the Partido Komunista sa Pilipinas (PKP) was constituted almost entirely by acti­ vists from the working class. Radical intellectuals, professionals and other middle class elements were conspicuously absent. More parti­ cularly, the PKP was rooted In the Manila labour movement and, to a lesser extent, in the peasant movement of Central Luzon. This study explores these origins and then examines the character, outlook and performance of the Party in the first three years of its existence (1930-33). Socialist ideas began to circulate during the early 1900s, but were not given durable organisational expression until 1922, when a Workers’ Party was formed. Led by cadres from the country's principal labour federation, the Congreso Obrero, this party aligned its policies increasingly with those of the Comintern.
