Description of the Book:
An Iroy Nga Tuna (The Motherland), A Dedication is a poetry collection written in 2021 from the heart and reflections of the author herself as a diasporic Filipinx in Canada during the 500th year celebration of the Battle of Mactan (1521). Marking the valour and victorious battle of the natives of the Eastern Visayan region of the Philippines against Ferdinand Magellan, the archipelago also became remarkable in its role in the first world circumference voyage recorded. Yet, the arrival of Ferdinand Magellan and Catholicism also means the arrival of the false gods and its empires in the Philippines, and of the colonial spirituality and mentality affecting world peace to date.
