Baha sa Luneta

via Jed Palonpon & Elyzza Esteban | The QuantumPhotos by: Jed Palonpon The spirit of People Power flooded the streets today as the nation marked the 53rd year since the declaration of Martial Law. From Luneta to EDSA and across the country, thousands of enraged Filipinos rose as one—demanding accountability, crying out against corruption, and refusing to be silenced. The people’s fury burned against the anomalies of multi-trillion–peso flood control projects, the shameful budget cuts in education, the relentless human rights abuses, and countless betrayals by those in power. Today, the message is clear: we will not bow to tyranny, we will not be fooled by corruption, and we will never again allow history’s darkest days to return.
