|The Wounded Revolution
|A "workers' and peasants' republic", the Lava brothers would describe their creation in 1945. it would be the first of its kind in Philippine history, unique among the islands' governments both past and present for paying attention first to the bonded masses rather than elites within or without. For a time it lived to its ideals; liberated farmlands were parceled to its tenants, villages were freed of onerous taxes, mouths were fed three meals a day and hands were paid their labors' worth. It seemed as if socialism as its most idyllic found purchase in the land of the landless.
Then came the Offensive of 1959. Whatever the cause, victory came not for the Revolution but for the fascist. Heavily wounded, it was salvaged only by the Huks' heroics and an arduous march to the base areas of the Cordillera Mountains, where partymen hoped to bide their time for another strike. But wounds left untreated invite sepsis - and with the defeatism gripping the PKP's ranks, who can spare the time or the energy to mend them?
