Liminal Writing: Reflecting on Hope and Struggle through Song

In this episode of Liminal Writing, writers and co-hosts Ces Millado and Lee Moran were profoundly inspired by the song 'Tanglaw,' its lyrics by Rody Vera and music by Jonas Baes. This song was first recorded by the group Patatag and produced by the Asian Institute for Liturgy and Music in 1990.

Ces and Lee talk about the enduring relevance of the song's themes of struggle, hope, and freedom, especially in the context of both their personal pasts and current events. They discuss their experiences as young activists, the impact of political oppression, and the continuous fight for peace and liberty, highlighting the importance of passing down these messages to younger generations.
