#BuwanNgMgaAkdangPinoy: What to read, see, and listen to

August 3, 2018 No Comments

#BuwanNgMgaAkdangPinoy is the official hashtag for an online campaign spearheaded by author Edgar Calabia Samar (Janus Silang), who objective was to promote Filipino-authored pieces of literature. This happens in the month of August, which is also Buwan ng Wika or National Language Month. I was made aware of this campaign last year, and since then, I’ve been making a conscious effort to consume as many Filipino-authored books, movies, songs, and musicals/plays. If you’re looking for a #BuwanNgMgaAkdangPinoy-related media, here are some suggestions:

Praying with all my might that Heneral Luna will still be in theaters later this afternoon because I’m finally on leave and can watch it in all its majestic glory. Ebe Dancel, you slay me. Always.
