We cannot seek a better tomorrow and call our country ‘fun’ through gritted teeth and false promises, but with wholehearted love and appreciation for the Motherland that would never deny us. We are the answer and the future is and will always be in our hands, the Filipino hands that were once blood-stained, abused, maltreated, discriminated, and mocked throughout the bittersweet fragments of our history.

As an individual who has lived in multiple poverty stricken villages in the Philippines, I understand and have seen the struggles that families go through every day. While I have lived in the United States for far longer than I have in the Philippines it’s impossible to forget, in fact, the startling difference between the two highlights just how privileged we are in this nation. When I was younger I moved from barangay to barangay and befriended many children from different walks of life.

The Philippines has always had a rich musical history. It takes its roots from the indigenous tribes of the Philippines, who used it as a way to pass on epics and stories about gods and heroes, a way to celebrate good harvests, festivals, weddings and births, a way to mourn the dead, to court women, and a way to praise the gods. This music was then enriched by the Philippines’ western colonizers. The Spaniards imparted the zarzuela (called sarswela in the Philippines) and the rondalla, adding more Spanish touches to Filipino folk songs. The Americans, on the other hand, influenced the Philippine music scene by introducing pop and rock, eventually leading to the creation of “Pinoy pop”, which included a wide variety of forms like dance tunes, ballads, rock n’ roll, disco, jazz, and rap.
CALELAO, Kyla Ellen, M. SURVIVING THE CYNICAL EFFECT OF GLOBALIZATION IN THE COUNTRY “We were all humans until, race disconnected us, religion separated us, politics divided us, and wealth classified us.” Despite of the great impact of it in the advancement of our country, globalization has been threatening our lives and the worst thing is that we, Filipinos, are not aware of this threat brought by the phenomenon.
