Hungry for rice? Hungrier for knowledge? ๐Ÿš๐Ÿง 

Rice plays an important role in the daily lives of Filipinos, as they nurture everyone in different ways. Likewise, our peasants, women, and youth nurture the fight for Filipino liberation in their own ways. But to understand why theyโ€™re so important, we have to understand their conditions in the Philippines

Tara! We will be holding this ED alongside Anakbayan BC Anakbayan BC where we will be understanding these conditions together as we nourish ourselves. (Yes! There will be food!)

On May 19, Anakbayan Victoria members attended and participated in a cultural during Danilo โ€˜Ka Daningโ€™ Ramosโ€™ public talk at the University of British Columbia. Last month, we held a discussion to collectively learn about what occurred in Toboso, Negros Occidental and a member shared her experience of attending a mobilization in South Seattle during Bonifacio Day where she met Kai Sorem.

It has been a month since the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) conducted their brutal counterinsurgency operation in Toboso, Negros Occidental and displaced over 600+ residents and took the lives of 19 peopleโ€” 10 fighters from the New Peopleโ€™s Army (NPA) and 9 civilians. A month has passed yet the AFP and the Philippine government continue to deny justice to the families of Negros 19.

After hearing Ka Daningโ€” a Filipino peasant farmer and advocateโ€” share about the dire conditions of peasant farmers in the Philippine countryside, itโ€™s no wonder that Filipinos in the diaspora, like Kai and Lyle, are called to go back to our homelands and learn about their struggle firsthand. Filipino youth and their families shouldnโ€™t fear immersing into communities that the Philippine government has historically, and presently, neglect and suppress for standing up for their rights and livelihood.

Hindi krimen ang umuwi! It is not a crime to go home!

Hustisya para sa Negros 19! Justice for the Negros 19!

JUSTICE FOR TOBOSO 19! END MILITARIZATION IN NEGROS NOW!

Anakbayan Victoria vehemently condemns the fascist display of violence by the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) in the recent military strafing operations in Brgy. Salamanca, Toboso, Negros Occidental, resulting in the massacre of 19 individuals and the displacement of 650 residents in the area.

The AFP continues its pattern of evading accountability and deflect scrutiny. They do not acknowledge the civilian harms despite clear evidence of hundreds of civilians displaced and communities caught in the crossfire. They obscure the facts by framing the incident as a "conventional clash" and labeling all the victims as "NPA fighters". These include civilians, namely Alyssa Alano, RJ Ledesma, Maureen Santuyo, Errol Wendel, and Lyle Prijoles.

We call on human rights advocates in Canada and from the international community to join us in clamoring for justice for the victims of the Toboso massacre. The attacks against peasants and peasant advocates will not stop for as long as Negros remains militarized and genuine agrarian reform remains elusive.

The fight for justice cannot be removed from the struggle for land.
