I Cry for You, Ilocos Sur: Dung-Aw

By Emely Batin Orillos

When environmental crimes are continuously being done for so long a time in your home province, what choice do you have but to speak up and fight the criminals? This book commemorates the Passion of the Christ via an ethnic song of lament, the Dung-aw, to express the deep sorrow and repulsion felt by Ilocanos toward the extremely destructive Black Sand Mining in their home province spanning almost two decades. A Good Friday reminder of the responsibility to take up the cross with courage and triumph with it in faith, hope, and love.
