Writing Project: Unfinished Business; P10,000 To A Charity Of Your Choice

Taken from Filipino Voices.com:

We are throwing down the gauntlet, this is a challenge to not forget the lessons of the years gone by, a challenge to not forget the issues that have yet to be resolved. This is the writing project that will ensure the new year of accountability and the realization that we have a duty as Filipinos to keep the fire of burning, because if this is our only tool to bring a voice to the issues that have died down, to the issues and incidents that have been forgotten, then so be it.

Cris A. Mendez has not found justice, activists are still missing, murders have not been solved, politicians both local and national still rule with impunity, Sulpicio’s victims still cry out for justice, a proper impeachment complaint has not been heard, Joc Joc still can deny everything, and farmers all over are still uncertain about their fate.

The question is not if we can face these challenges, the question is if we have the stamina to endure a fight for the ages, and a memory strong enough to remember the issues that once held our undivided attention.

Let this New Year, and let this Writing Project be our chance to say, that we remember, that we can endure as long as injustice is still there.

And so, I ask you, and you can leave answers here as comments, with any relevant links, either to your blog, or to articles, as to what is an unfinished business for you?

The winner gets P10,000, which will be given to a charity of his or her choice.
