ONE KATIPUNAN UNITY STATEMENT
Reignite the People's Power! Rage Against Corruption and Political Dynasties! Lahat ng Sangkot, Dapat Managot!”
One Katipunan is an alliance of students, councils, organizations, faculty, staff, and communities across Katipunan, united for justice, transparency, and participatory democracy. Our stand is clear: We reject corruption and political dynasties and commit to reigniting the People’s Power. Through collective action in our institutions, we aim to amplify the voices of youth and communities across universities in Katipunan, asserting that student action matters in shaping the future of our nation.
Recent political developments, including the termination of the Impeachment complaints against President Ferdinand Marcos Jr and Vice President Sara Duterte’s presidential run, remind us how urgent it is to hold leaders accountable. One Katipunan demands that those who fail the public answer for their actions. We recognize the critical role of students and communities in fostering accountability, encouraging civic engagement, and defending democratic spaces, ensuring governance remains for the people and by the people.
We call upon all students, organizations, and communities to join our street gig against corruption this Feb 20, 5 to 7 PM at Katipunan Ave. Together, we will reignite the People’s Power, not just as a memory of the past, but as an active, living force for justice and accountability. We invite everyone to raise their voices, participate in collective action, and stand united against corruption and political dynasties. This is our moment to reclaim our role as active citizens and demonstrate the power of youth solidarity.
One Katipunan stands united in courage, solidarity, and defiance. We will not be silenced. We will not be complacent. We will continue to assert our rights, defend our democracy, and challenge systems that fail the people. Together, we reignite the People’s Power, not only to remember history, but to shape it.
