Nov 25 on Rock Ed Radio >> "Utang ng Ina Ko" a primer on our national debt

Kanino tayo may utang? Gaano kalaki ang utang natin?

Paano natin naging utang yan? Sino umutang? Sino nakinabang?

Linawan lang.

Kausapin natin ang Freedom from Debt Coalition, subukan natin mag imbita ng taga NEDA, o Economics Professors. Sa ngayon ang nag confirm pa lang ang FDC reps na sina James Miraflor at si Emman Hizon.

Abangan.

Pagkatapos nito, EMO na talaga tayong lahat...

Nov 11 on Rock Ed Radio >> Who are the Neo-Angono artists?

Recently, a group of young artists called the Neo-Angono artists were commissioned to paint a mural for the National Press Club. It was to be unveiled at an event of the NPC. After finishing the work, the piece was revealed on the 55th anniversary celebration. The mural was tasked to visually depict PRESS FREEDOM. On revelation, the mural was edited by another artist, covering elements that were deemed to be "leftist." (viva press freedom!) Here's a portrait of Prof Randy David given a sloppy make-over.
Here's a headline change, with the faces of the Burgos family also altered.

Let's talk to the Neo-Angono artists. What do they stand for?
How free is free for a visual artist? How free is free for a human being, for that matter?

Here's Andres Bonifacio's alibata "K" tattoo edited because it might be misconstrued as "leftist."
We want to know what you think about this. Comment on this page or text NUMSG [space] messge to 29107 on Sunday at 8pm.
