Many are devastated by what they witnessed in the Senate on Wednesday. But in the same way that Escudero and Marcoleta showed the disdainful images of the Senate of the 20th Congress, the valiant stand of Hontiveros, Sotto, Lacson, Pangilinan and Aquino is a source of inspiration and hope for those who want to have a working and meaningful democracy in the country.

The bold but reverent collages Del Tolentino left behind

His sudden death in May this year left the academic and art community of Baguio bereft. Prof. Delfin L. Tolentino Jr. wasn’t just a hardworking literature teacher, he was a wit, a raconteur, an aesthete, an artist himself.Proof of this is his current, posthumous exhibition “Our Mother of Pearl” at the café of Museo Kordilyera at the University of the Philippines Baguio. The show runs until the end of the month as part of the university’s celebration of Buwan ng Wika.
