So what’s the verdict? Colonizers or not? 👀 For people living under occupation and (neo)colonialism, decolonization is not a metaphor 🗣️ Pax Silica hasn’t broken ground yet, and stopping the project would save the lands and livelihoods of countless Filipino farmers, fisherfolk, workers, and Indigenous communities. Shutting down Pax Silica would also protect the environment and weaken the U.S. war machine 🌱 This moment calls for international solidarity and our unshakable commitment to national liberation!

Bayan SoCal strongly condemns the detainment of Mark Mabasa by ICE and the inadequate response from the Philippine Consulate! We recognize the pattern of corruption by the Philippine state, from his father Percy Lapid who was killed for exposing the Duterte and Marcos regimes, to the lying Philippine officials that do nothing to support migrants like Mark. We must stand alongside Mark Mabasa and all detained migrants in their fight for freedom, but we must also fight for genuine change an an end to the three basic problems that makes this systemic violence possible in the first place! FREE MARK MABASA! END FORCED MIGRATION! END THE COLLUSION! #FreeMarkMabasa #TanggolMigrante #DefendMigrants

🇵🇭 As an immigrant, Filipino American History Month means remembering that I did not arrive here empty-handed. I came carrying songs. I came carrying the language of my elders, the stories of a country oceans away, the rhythms I learned before I even knew to call them heritage. I came carrying Kundiman, the songs of my childhood, the voices of those who came before me—and the responsibility of making sure they are not forgotten. As an immigrant artist, I have learned that sometimes home is something you rebuild through art. Every time I sing, I am stitching a little piece of the Philippines into the fabric of where I am now. Every stage becomes a crossing of oceans. Every song becomes a way of saying: we were here. We are here. We are still becoming. Filipino American history is not only a story of migration. It is a story of survival, labor, resistance, longing, and imagination. It is the story of people who crossed oceans and still found ways to bring home with them. This month, I honor those who carried the torch before me. And I keep singing— to remember where I came from, and to make sure the light reaches whoever comes next. #FilipinoAmericanHistory #FilipinoAmericanHistoryMonth #BayanKo #Strings #Kundiman

🇪🇨💥 Exposing the truth: Antonio from Frente Unido Inmigrantes Ecuatorianos (FUIE) and the International Migrants Alliance (IMA) explains the real conditions of the Ecuadorian people and their justness to fight for their rights and livelihood! While Daniel Noboa, President of Ecuador tries to boast of his administration’s economic and social progress, especially through his Fénix Plan, the country remains subservient to U.S. interests, rather than meeting peoples’ needs. Noboa speaks of Ecuador’s “strategic resources,” yet fails to mention the lack of adequate healthcare that afflicts the majority of working Ecuatorianos. He speaks of eradicating criminal violence, but fails to mention the violence of the state against activists and those organizing for better conditions. In Ecuador and around the world, the people will continue to fight for their rights, for genuine development, and national sovereignty! 🇪🇨💥

Anakbayan San Diego, Anakbayan Long Beach, Migrante San Diego came together to sing Lagi Ko Kayong Kasama after our SoCal Martial Law Action as tribute para sa kasamas natin ~ Negros 19. Limang buwan na ang nakalipas mula nang mangyari ang pagpaslang sa Negros 19. Sa Negros, tinatawag ng mga tao ang massacre bilang Toboso 19 dahil napakarami nang naganap na pagpatay sa Negros, kaya mahirap nang pag-ibahin ang mga ito. Limang buwan mula nang pagpatay ng AFP sa Toboso, Negros Occidental, ang ating mga kasamang sina Lyle, Kai, RJ, Alyssa, Errol, at ibang mga Pilipinong magsasaka at miyembro ng komunidad. Mas lalong nag-aalab ang apoy sa ating mga puso. Patuloy tayong lalaban at mananawagan ng Hustisiya para sa Negros 19. Mabuhay ang Negros 19!

FREE MARK MABASA! On Sep. 21, singer and former X Factor Philippines finalist Mark Mabasa was detained by ICE in Los Angeles, CA. Mark is the son of journalist, Percy Lapid, who was assassinated in 2022 for his criticisms of President Rodrigo Duterte. His family fled to the U.S. for political asylum due to death threats, and is now facing state violence once again under the Trump administration. We see this rooted in the 3 basic problems in the Philippines that forces Filipinos abroad and are then left vulnerable with little to no protections from the same government that forced them out. The Philippine state is not only neglecting its people but directly targeting them by colluding with U.S. immigration enforcement. Migrante South Bay demands: End to Philippine collusion with U.S. & ICE in detaining Filipinos! Stop the fascist attacks on migrant workers and their families! End forced migration! Junk Labor Export Policy (LEP)!

The baddest Filipinos are holding it down in College Park! But why? Last week commemorated the No To War and Plunder Week of Action, where Filipino-American activists and international solidarity groups across the country launched community campaigns to coincide with the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in NYC. Together, they advocated for people’s rights, for national sovereignty, and for social liberation. Most notably, hundreds of individuals walked across NYC on September 22nd to protest Trump’s visit to the UN General Assembly in convening with government officials such as Marcos Jr. & Netanyahu. Activists in particular scrutinized Trump and Marcos’ involvement with U.S. led initiative, Pax Silica, aiming to secure resources for artificial intelligence initiatives at the expense of Filipino livelihoods. As plans for Pax Silica seem to expand, the Philippine government’s complicity with Trump harms local communities in Tarlac - displacing locals and stripping environmental resources while pushing forward geopolitical tensions. Not all of us can be in NYC confronting the Philippine state – therefore some of us have got to hold it down in College Park, because the mass movement is everywhere! At Monday’s Computer Science Career Fair, we joined forces with other anti-imperialist student organizations to protest UMD’s connections to the military-industrial complex, and to empower students to find career paths that don’t funnel their skills and talents towards employers implicated in crimes against humanity. We highlighted how the defense contractors and AI technology at the heart of Pax Silica pose a threat to civilian safety in the Philippines – and increase the likelihood of more massacres at the hands of the Philippine State.
