Demonizing the defense of human rights
Demonizing the defense of human rights
It should be pointed out that these organizations are being targeted for the invaluable work they do – the defense of human rights of the poor and marginalized.

Tanggol Wika sa Pagbubukas ng Klase
Katatapos lang ng Hunyo at magsimula na ang klase at ang pagharap ng ilang mga kababayan sa maraming mga usapin sa edukasyon. Muli na namang tampok ang usapin ng wika sa pagtuturo sa paaralan, isang usapin na tila kasintagal na ng mahabang kasaysayan ng pagtuturo at kontrobersya sa wika sa kapuluan.

Basura sa Philippine Collegian
Basura sa Philippine Collegian
Higit pa sa isang komplikadong telenobela, malinaw ang maniobra ng papaalis nang liderato ng Philippine Collegian para atakehin ang kalayaan sa pamamahayag. Sa halip na pagbutihin ang paglilingkod sa mga estudyanteng tagapaglimbag ng opisyal na publikasyon, ginugol nito ang oras para sampahan ng kaso ang tingin nila’y kaaway nila.
Malaya o nanlilimos? Ang anino ni Recto at ang trahedya sa Recto Bank
Malaya o nanlilimos? Ang anino ni Recto at ang trahedya sa Recto Bank
Sa panahon ni Recto hanggang ngayon, makabuluhan pa ring tingnan kung paano natin igigiit ang ating kalayaan, at kung paano natin makakamit ang tamang paggalang at pantay na pagtingin sa atin ng ibang bayan.
An appeal for sobriety and prudence
An appeal for sobriety and prudence
he defense for Lisandro Claudio, PhD is an opportunistic reaction to a petition signed by 467 academics, artists and activists. The petition rightly argues that an academic who is engaged in tagging activist organizations as communist fronts is doing something unbecoming. It correctly articulates the global and local contexts in which such disposition is lamentable at the very least.
Academic unfreedom and states of repression: On the case of Leloy Claudio
Academic unfreedom and states of repression: On the case of Leloy Claudio
Dr. Claudio's commentary, accusing his colleagues as well as students and activists of being "commies" are hardly statements to be glibly made or easily dismissed. Within the context of increasing state repression and concomitantly the erosion of academic freedom on both sides of the Pacific, the targets of Dr. Claudio's work are put directly into the crosshairs of the Duterte and even the Trump regime. Dr. Claudio produces conditions of academic unfreedom for those he attacks.

While we will fight it out and still avail whatever remedy there is, we are inclined to affirm the view that courts in especially with those appointed by the current President and his allies are severely compromised. We are inclined to believe that even these so-called remedies for victims of human rights violations are discouraging and thus are rendered inutile.
Pagmumuni-muni sa biyahe
Pagmumuni-muni sa biyahe
Mainam ang paminsan-minsang pagbiyahe sa labas ng bansa para makita kung paanong ang mga bagay tulad ng palpak na LRT at MRT sa Pilipinas na unti-unti nang nagiging “normal” ay hindi talaga katanggap-tanggap.

First Person | ‘Hamon para sa mga dalubhasa sa komunikasyon’
Bago pa lamang ako pumasok sa graduate school ay lagi kong tinatanong ang aking sarili kung bakit ko ninais na mag-aral pang muli. Nakuha ko ang aking sagot makalipas ang tatlong taon --- na ang pagiging isang dalubhasa sa komunikasyon ay hindi lamang dekorasyong idinudugtong sa iyong pangalan kundi ito ay isang pang-habang buhay na misyon.
