Land to the Tillers
1/2 sized ⦁ 22 pages
A zine by Liyang Network, released in commemoration of Earth Day 2021 in solidarity with rural and Indigenous communities in Mindanao who are calling for: 1) an equitable redistribution of land and resources and 2) the deglobalization and relocalization of food systems.
The zine weaves together the work of artists across the country, created in response to Liyang Network’s Land to the Tillers campaign in 2020. These works intend to amplify the people’s calls. In addition to visual art, expository pieces contextualize land struggle in the Philippines.
"The oceans continue to rise as the effects of the global climate crisis have manifested in three of the most powerful typhoons in the Philippines’ recent history. Despite being responsible for less than half a percentage point of global carbon emissions, the Philippines is one of the most vulnerable countries to human induced climate calamity, with the urban poor, peasants, and Indigenous Peoples disproportionately affected. Still, the tides can change, and there remains hope that we can provide urgent support to these communities while still working towards systemic changes with the long-term goal of sustainability and self-reliance across the archipelago. "
❁All proceeds from the sales go towards supporting typhoon relief and rehabilitation for communities affected by Super Typhoon Odette in Visayas and Mindanao. Liyang Network has partnered with grassroots organizations like Balsa Mindanao and the Women’s Global Network for Reproductive Rights (WGNRR) to bring urgently needed relief to some of the most heavily impacted communities in the region..❁
