Tibak Rising: Activism in the Days of Martial Law

Ferdinand C. Llanes

4.9/5 (20799 ratings)

Description:In his foreword, columnist and anthropologist Michael L. Tan describes the word Tibak as emanating from the word “aktibista.” “Tibak –the syllables of the word “aktibista” transposed in the style of slang popular among young people at that time –speaks of a rebellious time…The Tibak stories remind us there’s more to transformation than slogans and the grim and determined politics of the streets (or of the hills). We find friendships and camaraderie built even in detention, not just among the prisoners but with the soldiers. History books tend to gloss over the details of everyday life; life histories capture the warmth and color of these encounters. On a sad note, the stories also highlight the irony of events that unfolded later, of former bosom friends becoming bitter enemies, of paranoia turning comrade against comrade.”The book contributors include congressman Romeo Candazo; theater and film director Behn Cervantes; consultant Sylvia de la Paz, M.D.; chair of La Liga Policy Institute Edicio de la Torre; writer Gilda Cordero-Fernando; ASEAN advisor Robert Francis Garcia; artistic director Paul Alexander Morales; head of National Anti-Poverty Commission Joel M. Rocamora; Professor Judy Taguiwalo of the University of the Philippines, Diliman; columnist Ma. Ceres P. Doyo; and, T’bak president Joel Saracho. Other contributors are Leila Yap-Aboga, Lualhati M. Abreu, Dante L. Ambrosio, Maria Christina Pargas Bawagan, Mamerto Calalang Canlas Jr., Nestor Castro, Derek “Siopao” Chua, Arnel F. de Guzman, Edgardo de Guzman, Emere Distor, Jean Enriquez, Mari Enriquez, Hazel Inessa G.
