March 29 marks a historic anniversary for the Filipino masses and oppressed people around the world. While the Filipino people have militantly defended land and resources against oppressors for centuries, this struggle found firm ground and clear orientation fifty years ago through the re-establishment of the Communist Party of the Philippines on December 26, 1968 and the unification with the New People’s Army on March 29, 1969. It is because of the application of revolutionary theory of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism and unflinching courage to adhere to its principles that the people’s struggle has not just endured but advanced like wildfire, improving and transforming countless lives. Anakbayan New York sends warm regards to all those fighting for the liberation and welfare of the Filipino people. We remember freedom fighters and commemorate youth activists who have devoted their lives to serving the people to their last breath, from the Kabataan Makabayan to Anakbayan to all those who give up their lives to wage armed struggle in the countryside. These fifty years truly show that the future is bright: the yoke of imperialism, feudalism, and bureaucrat capitalism is breaking because the masses enthusiastically continue the long legacy of struggle with precision and clarity. As youth, we must always remember this tremendous history and continually seek inspiration from the words of our wise revolutionaries: “Only through militant struggle can the best in youth emerge. Only through the struggle can become more evident the constant replenishment of the fighting forces by the ceaseless flow of new blood.” – Jose Maria Sison LONG LIVE 50 YEARS OF REVOLUTION!

April 24 marks a historic anniversary for the Filipino masses and oppressed people around the world. While the Filipino people have militantly defended land and resources against oppressors for centuries, this struggle found firm ground and clear orientation fifty one years ago through the re-establishment of the Communist Party of the Philippines on December 26, 1968 and the unification with the New People's Army on March 29, 1969, and establishment of the National Democratic Front of the Philippines on April 24, 1973. The NDFP established itself in Baguio City in 1973, and since then has continued building alongside the masses consolidating local organs of political power in the countryside. To this day, the people's revolutionary movement has built local organs of political power within 74 out of 81 provinces throughout the Philippines archipelago. It is because of the application of revolutionary theory of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism and unflinching courage to adhere to its principles that the people's struggle has not just endured but advanced like wildfire, improving and transforming countless lives. The NDFP continues to act as a beacon for the Peoples' call for change - actively engaging in campaigns and discussions that promote full national sovereignty, democracy, socio-economic development through land reform & national industrialization, and so much more. Anakbayan Queens New York sends warm regards to those fighting for the liberation and welfare of the Filipino people. We remember freedom fighters and honor the revolutionaries who continue to serve the people. To this day, many serving the NDFP are currently political prisoners being illegally detained by the Government Republic of the Philippines (GRP), which violates international humanitarian law(s) (of JASIG and CAHRIHL). .

While the Filipino people have militantly defended land and resources against oppressors for centuries, this struggle found firm ground and clear orientation fifty years ago through the re-establishment of the Communist Party of the Philippines on December 26, 1968 and unification with the New People’s Army just months later.

THE GUERRILLA IS LIKE A POET 1968, Jose Maria Sison "The guerrilla is like a poet Keen to the rustle of leaves The break of twigs The ripples of the river The smell of fire And the ashes of departure. The guerrilla is like a poet. He has merged with the trees The bushes and the rocks Ambiguous but precise Well-versed on the law of motion And master of myriad images. The guerrilla is like a poet. Enrhymed with nature The subtle rhythm of the greenery The inner silence, the outer innocence The steel tensile in-grace That ensnares the enemy. The guerrilla is like a poet. He moves with the green brown multitude In bush burning with red flowers That crown and hearten all Swarming the terrain as a flood Marching at last against the stronghold. An endless movement of strength Behold the protracted theme: The people’s epic, the people’s war." -Jose Maria Sison #DiMataloTalo #NPA50 #GuerillaIsLikeAPoet https://www.instagram.com/p/BvnJp2mBe0V/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1n987zcdkfx2f

adding on to my hopes about 2018, i can't wait to up my fitness game this year and get right back on keto. keto was probs one of the things that kept me grounded and gave me consistent results last year even when i felt down enough to not want to do jack shit. it's exciting to think of how much more progress and energy i'll have once i add working out to the mix. i wanna get stronger both mentally and physically.

these past three years in the movement, i've been shy af when it comes to cultural work. whether it's singing or poetry, i've been hesitant to let my voice out. it is tiiiiime, not just for me but for others too. i hope this year in our region is a cultural rev as well as a militant one!

i have so many things i wanna see happen in 2018, i'm inspired by what's possible, and i've just gotta see how what i bring back about the movement here will help inspire others to dream big too! just from the calendar, i portend a busy year but i can't wait for the lessons, collective work, mass work, experimentation, growth, and expansion!!!

Ahh, i feel like my mind is finally turning a corner from loss to possibility. And THAT'S that shit i wanna be on. in assessments last year, one of the things people appreciated in my style of organizing was my "enthusiasm for the work" and "energy and fresh air." Can't wait to continue that and do even more: Dream even bolder. Collective love and life even harder. Forgive. Understand. Grow.

Kung tayo ay sama-sama pagkilos, di tayo matalo talo!
