These pieces of narratives are artistic statements that showcase social artifacts as a collective memory that extends from the struggles of the past to the choices we make for the future— and so, in this Elections 2022, let us heed the call and serve our duty as citizens of the Philippines to elect candidates who respect their countrymen, and who has proven themselves to be leaders of integrity and competence. Our social responsibility is to work towards the goal of #NeverAgain and #NeverForget and to not turn a blind eye to the thousands of people who were killed, tortured, and imprisoned during the Martial Law era. Let us not allow a second rise of the Marcos’ family in the national government, primarily that they are fueled by the billions of pesos stolen from our nation’s taxpayers.

As artists, we believe that silence is a tacit contribution to the acts that repress the people’s freedom, deny the sanctity of their lives, and erase the atrocities left by the Marcos regime. We aim to influence our fellow creatives to be the powerful voice of morality against the transgressions of power and abuse; as we are the storytellers of the society, and there is no greater truth worth telling than the stories taken away by the evil— for the good always triumphs over it.
