In light of the recent fraternity-related violence associated with the Alpha Phi Beta Fraternity (APB), UP Babaylan, together with the Sanctuary Project β UP Diliman,
Across more than three decades, weβve held close a dream of a softer, fairer world, where love is free, care runs deep, and everyone has a place to belong.
Within these halls and far beyond them, UP Babaylan has turned solidarity into a force for equality.
(1/3)
Through the years, weβve inherited a legacy of courage and pride, where queer joy has always found a way to make itself known.

To be queer is to remember.
We honor those who fought before us 53 years ago and beyond:
The queers who defied the Marcos Sr. administration that tied our community down;
The queers whose existence and expression were stronger than the forces that tried to suppress us Filipinos;
From the massacre of the pre-colonial babaylan during the Spanish colonization to the bloodshed dictatorship of the Martial Law era, our history teaches us to transform our oppression into collective action.
In these 53 years and beyond, we continue to struggle, we continue to resist, and we continue to remember.

DRAG IS POLITICAL, AND TO BE QUEER IS TO RESIST.
For the longest time, queer identities have always been expected to do comedy as a form of artistic expression and comfort to escape the realities of our everyday lives. But now, we reclaim and transform that narrative.
Drag, like all queer art, is a powerful tool for confronting and resisting injustice. We take a stand in uniting and forwarding our calls toward action, not as a performance but as a collective to continuously resist. On September 21, 2025, we invite everyone to take a stand
at the EDSA People Power Monument, where we move as a community and as a nation that fights for our dignity and rights.
