Warm and militant greetings!
WHAT: Production work
WHERE: Action 21
107-B Hutton St. (corner of Central Avenue)
Jersey City, NJ
WHEN: Wednesday, July 20; 4pm
WHY: President Noynoy Aquino’s 2nd State of the Nation Address is just around the corner. As we do every year, we’ll be holding a People’s State of the Nation Address under the banner of National Alliance of Filipino Concerns (NAFCON) and BAYAN-USA on Sunday, July 24, 12-1pm at Queens, NY.
Being an inspired, creative force, the youth in NJ is tasked to help make props for the protest action. The concept behind this production is that President “P-Noy” Aquino will be depicted as a spoiled egg, oozing with controversy and various incompetencies (rising prices of commodities, public-private partnerships, tuition fee hikes, Spratly dispute, etc). The boxing gloves will represent the Filipino people’s collective power that continues to fight for basic rights such as jobs, education, healthcare, and other social services. The boxing gloves also serve as a reference to Congressman Manny Pacquiao’s endorsement of the 125- peso wage increase bill.
We’ll be making 2 big boxing gloves that are meant to smash the spoilt “humpty dumpty”, and 6 smaller gloves representing the different groups of human trafficking victims and the community organizations in the NY/NJ area.
