US IMPERIALISM AND REVOLUTION IN THE PHILIPPINES by E. SAN JUAN, Jr. due for release this September from PALGRAVE MACMILLAN, New York City ___________________________________________________________________ U.S. Imperialism and Revolution in the Philippines By E. San Juan, Jr. After Afghanistan, the Philippines has become the second battlefront in the "global war on terrorism." U.S. troops have intervened to fight the Abu Sayyaf, a CIA creation, as well as the Communist-led New People's Army.

This book is a critical analysis of the social and political crisis of the Philippines under the brutal Arroyo regime. What are the stakes? Peace, social justice for 87million Filipinos and 10 million Moros, democracy, genuine independence, and the struggle for selfdetermination.. "San Juan is one of the sharpest and most clarifying voices vis-à-vis Filipino/U.S. and Filipino/world relati...

THE MAY DAY THESES: EMERGENCY TOOLKIT FOR THE DISMANTLING OF THE ARROYO KILLING MACHINE By E. SAN JUAN, Jr. Philippine Forum, New York Ang sagot sa dahas ay dahas din, kung bingi sa katwiran. ---JOSE RIZAL No uprising is ever wasted. Each is a step in the right direction. --SALUD ALGABRE, leader of the Sakdal Insurrection Election day, May 14, 2007: a time of reckoning for the oppressors, a time of judgment for the avengers of the oppressed, exploited and slaughtered generations of Filipinos, from the 1.4 million killed by the U.S. invaders in the Filipino-American War (1899-1913) to the over 850 victims murdered by Arroyo and her generals and their death-squads. Even as more imbecilic pretexts and mendacities are spun by Arroyo apologists from the recent Burgos/Posa/Arado kidnapping, and the well-oiled cheating dynamos revving up for a last-ditch effort, synchronized with the rusty gears of the killing machines of the AFP/PNP, the masses are assembling for a final confrontatio...

BOOK REVIEW: On the Presence of Filipinos in the United States, and other Essays. By E. San Juan, Jr. (Salinas, California: SRMNK Publishers, 2007. 114 pp. softcover, $12.50; available from Sarimanok Publishers, 104 E. Lamar Street, Salinas, CA 93906 ). By Mike Viola Graduate School of Education and Communications University of California, Los Angeles No one is more of an expert in the areas of social theory, race studies, and on the specific subject of the history of Filipinos than Epifanio San Juan, Jr. His scholarly endeavors with their international optic undoubtedly continue the emancipatory projects of such theorists as W.E.B. Du Bois, C.L.R. James, Carlos Bulosan, and Paulo Freire. In his latest book, On the Presence of Filipinos in the United States: and other Essays, San Juan clearly demonstrates that history is a weapon in the ideological battle between those who want to change society and those who want to maintain its basic features. This book, a compilation of four ess...

TAG-SIBOL SA DEN HAAG, NEDERLAND, 25 Marso 2007 [Handog kay CPA] Mula sa bubong ng simbahang Christus Triumfator sumungaw ang araw at sa Pax Christi sumikat ang balintataw ng hatol: "Guilty!" ang rehimeng U.S.-Arroyo--deklara ng Permanent People's Tribunal-- Mainit na ang hipo ng amihan sa iyong pisngi, Alegria.... Nagtatangka nang bumuka ang buko ng mga bulaklak sa pintuan ng Hotel Van Der Valk de Bijhorst Subalit sina Ka Beltran at ilandaang kasama sa Tagaytay at Muntinlupa ay nakabilanggo pa rin Patuloy pa rin ang pamamaslang at pambubusabos Patuloy pa rin, sa kabila ng pagtutol, ang paglaganap ng dilim Dito sa maaliwalas na lansangan ng Den Haag, walang dagundong ng motorsiklo, walang mga taong naka-bonet Walang baril na nakaumang sa pagitan ng mga hita ng dafodil Ngunit bakit hindi panatag ang loob ...
