THE AKO ay Pilipino Movement, together with well-loved Pinoy bands like Hilera, Mayonaise and Gloc 9, will give inspiration through music, poetry, and art that kindle Filipino pride, nationalism, and radical hope on February 2, 2010, 7:00pm at 6UG Pearl Drive, Ortigas Center Pasig City. The theme will be "'Mahal Mo Ba Ako? Pilipinas," a Valentine's celebration that is "makabayan-style." There will be excerpts from "Ako ay Pilipino: Noon at Ngayon", a coffee-table book praised by critics (including 700 Club Asia and Kata Inocencio) for conveying a timely message of "why I should be proud of my Identity and Destiny as a Filipino," all done employing cutting edge design and creative non-conventional writing style. The book will soon be released through leading bookstores nationwide.
