About me

Unbeknownst to strangers who heard him sing in videoke, Crooner KR Guda did not have formal training in music, apart from a brief stint as a bass voice singing "Times of Your Life" during high school. Nowadays, he busies himself writing about politics and culture and studying photojournalism. As a journalist covering human rights issues, he is what can aptly be described by that John Berger quote: "Truly we writers are the secretaries of death." (Thanks to newly-sanctioned poet Teo Marasigan for that one)

Scenes at the Picketline

Siblings in the picketline. The younger one was born after the strike at the Hacienda Luisita started over a year ago.

They say she's baliw. But during a program at the picketline, I saw her intently listening to the speeches.

Always hated having to pose for the camera as a kid. I was delighted, then, to see kids at the picketline instinctively posing in clenched fists while I was taking their picture.
