A Reaction to Patrick Flores’ Teaching/Learning the Humanities in Other Words/Worlds
This particular essay on art is not looking at an artwork. Rather, it problematizes the way we think of art as an element of culture. The epigraphs by Octavio Paz and Robert Barry challenge the way we commonsensically think of art. And this is what the whole essay allows us to (re)think: Our ways of seeing art and the conditions of possibility of our gaze.
Octavio Paz’s statement on the iconic status of art objects that “command our adoration” is precisely what the essay explains as symbolic violence. Symbolic violence as the essay suggests, stems from the condition that art is produced in a society where there is hierarchy. However, it wasn’t quite clear how hierarchy is produced and reproduced in society.

Why Is the Philippines A Poor Country?
(Part 13 of the “In Defense of the Filipino” series)
THE usual answers to this question are because allegedly we Filipinos are indolent, thieves, corrupt, undisciplined, crab-minded, divided, and more. Let us have the real answers.
Nation’s Debts. The main reason is because a large portion of our national budget goes to paying our foreign and domestic debts, instead of using it to build more roads, highways, bridges, schools, hospitals, housing units, railroads, irrigation, cable lines, and other public works; to raise the salaries and benefits of our public school teachers, policemen, soldiers, and government employees; and to fund more development and poverty-alleviation programs.
