A Time to Rise: Book Talk at Eastwind Books
Saturday, April 14 at 3PM
2066 University Ave.
Book Talk featuring KDP members: Estella Habal, Lillian Galedo, Jeanette Gandionco Lazam, and book editor Rene Ciria Cruz.
A Time to Rise: Collective Memoirs of the Union of Democratic Filipinos (KDP) is an intimate look into the workings of the KDP, the only revolutionary organization that emerged in the Filipino American community during the politically turbulent 1970s and ’80s. Overcoming cultural and class differences, members of the KDP banded together in a single national organization to mobilize their community into civil rights and antiwar movements in the United States and in the fight for democracy and national liberation in the Philippines and elsewhere.
