In this episode we speak with China de Vera of the Alliance of Concerned Teachers, Jandeil Roperos of the National Union of Students of the Philippines, and Kathleen Obille of the University of the Philippines School of Library and Information Studies about the recent purging of books on the people’s protracted war and the National Democratic Front from universities and libraries in Northern Philippines by the reactionary government through its state forces. We talk of the dangers of censorship, the consequences of the book-purging in education, and what we can do to resist this yet another fascist form of state oppression. Roma Estrada hosts.
