UP ISIP - Integrated Students in Psychology

Exactly 52 years ago today, on September 21, Ferdinand Marcos Sr. declared Martial Law in the Philippines, leading to rampant human rights abuses, blatant violations of constitutional power, and suppression of democracy, resulting in one of the darkest chapters in Filipino history. As we remember this painful past, we also honor those who gave their lives and bravely fought to reclaim our freedom.

We, the 𝗨𝗣 𝗜𝗦𝗜𝗣-𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝘀𝘆𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆, stand in solidarity with the victims of the dark era whose voices were silenced and harassed, and who continue to endure the lasting psychological trauma inflicted by the dictatorship. It is important to continuously resist and fight against social injustices that cause physical and psychological suffering among the masses. The constant threat posed by the military presence left many Filipinos living in a state of terror.

Psychology as a discipline advocates for a humane approach, upholding the rights of Filipinos’ well-being. Emerging fields such as Political Psychology, acknowledge that the political climate in the Filipino voters is shaped to become a patron-client system (Chiongbian, 1991, p. 774-775) which can pose a threat to exploitation by corrupt politicians to abuse the system. However, 𝘚𝘪𝘬𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘩𝘪𝘺𝘢𝘯𝘨 𝘗𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘱𝘪𝘯𝘰 forwards that Filipinos can triumph from the political challenges by strengthening the Filipino values of resilience and community solidarity through remembrance of significant events from our history– the very values which Martial Law oppressed through trauma, fear, and suppression when pursuing their self-serving political interest.

As the voice of the minds of the masses, we will continue to remain steadfast in promoting a psychology that is centered in the Filipino context, understanding the psychological manipulation of the Marcos dictatorship, and continuously raises awareness on mental and health-related issues.

Repression, intimidation, and political vilification have no place inside the University of the People.

On August 6, 2024, during the Senate Hearing for P.S. Resolution No. 863, maliciously titled “an inquiry into the continuous radicalization and recruitment of students to the local communist groups”, Senator Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa recklessly red-tagged individuals and duly recognized student organizations within the University of the Philippines. This intimidation not only jeopardizes the safety and security of the university’s community but also represents a direct assault on academic freedom—the very cornerstone of our educational institutions. Such blatant and malicious accusations are unacceptable and must be denounced in the strongest terms.

Amid impending budget cuts, increasing commercialization and the diminishing of physical spaces in UP, such actions by the State are deeply troubling and only serve to worsen the plight of Filipino students. The Mandatory ROTC Program that Senator Robinhood Padilla brazenly champions as a solution to alleged recruitments capitalizes on escalating intimidation as a forceful tool to curtail our constitutionally sanctioned freedoms, subjugate dissent, and terrorize progressive individuals and groups. We recognize the proposed mandatory ROTC scheme as nothing but a gateway to further militarize our campuses. Furthermore, Dela Rosa’s arrogant suggestions for stricter regulations on the activity of UP organizations as well as the profiling of students who are baselessly tagged as potential recruits of CPP-NPA are extremely misguided, perilous, and a blatant attack to our fundamental right to organize freely and live without fear of harm. These actions do not have a place in a free and democratic society.

In Baguio City, human rights defenders and progressive groups have faced similar severe political vilification, unfounded red-tagging, and terrorist labeling, alongside harassment and intimidation. In 2023, the Baguio City Council unanimously passed a resolution that urged the State to rescind the terrorist designation of four Cordillera activists. In the same year, the Baguio City mayor declared Baguio City as a safe and inclusive city for activists while prohibiting red-tagging in the city especially those targeting the youth and student leaders. It is, however, important to note that activist groups continue to suffer human rights violations which firmly highlights the urgent need for more concrete measures to ensure that Baguio City truly becomes a safe and inclusive environment for all. Nonetheless, such declarations from the local government are a testament to the recognition of the critical role and place of dissent in a democratic society - an effort that can be proactively done inside our Universities.

Within UP Baguio, there is an undeniable significant erosion in both the quantity and quality of safe physical and democratic spaces essential for its constituents, and especially for students' educational and extracurricular endeavors. Many basic services continue to be inadequate, inaccessible, or simply inexistent. Rather than addressing pressing institutional concerns that directly affect the State University’s ability to fulfill its mandate of serving the nation through quality and socially-informed education, figures such as Dela Rosa, Padilla, and the State instead prioritize tactics that instill fear and intimidation, reminiscent of a tyrannical regime. It is imperative that these elected officials redirect their energies to addressing the crisis in our educational system.

𝐓𝐇𝐔𝐒, 𝐰𝐞, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐲 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬, 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬, 𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧 𝐔𝐏 𝐁𝐚𝐠𝐮𝐢𝐨, 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐛𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐮𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐮𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭 𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐏 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠. We condemn the culture of fear and intimidation propagated by the current Marcos regime. We also call upon the University Council and the Chancellor of the University of the Philippines Baguio to issue a statement in staunch defense of our constituents. This is a critical moment demanding prompt and decisive action to protect our institution and academic freedom. As a university mandated with molding scholar-citizens that shape our nation, we assert our unwavering commitment to academic freedom and the cultivation of critical thinking. In a society grappling with numerous challenges, we reaffirm that radicalization is not synonymous with terrorism, nor shall it ever be.
