“Matapos manalasa ang tatlong magkakasunod na mga bagyo sa Luzon at ilang bahagi ng Visayas, at mga sunog sa iba't ibang bahagi ng bansa sa panahon ng pandemya, mainam na dalhin ang galit hindi lamang sa social media. Dalhin ang mga ito sa pamamagitan ng pagtulong sa masa upang sabay-sabay na makabangon at pumunta sa mga kalsada upang dalhin ang mga panawagan para sa kalusugan, kabuhayan, at karapatan,” they concluded.
The activity was joined by progressive organization from PUP including Anakbayan PUP, Anakbayan PUP COC, Anakbayan PUP CAL, Kabataan Partylist PUP, Kabataan Partylist PUP COC, League of Filipino Students PUP, SAMASA PUP, SAMASA PUP CPSPA, Panday Sining PUP, and Mulat Documentary Guild.— Rafael G.
