About the Editors

AKDAAN is a Toronto-based literary collective dedicated to empower, enliven and engage the Filipino community. AKDAAN aims to promote a culture that is nationalist, scientific and for the masses. This aim will be the impetus to creative productions in the various genres of literature and the other arts. Within such a perspective on artistic creation, AKDAAN recognizes the value of the several languages of the Filipino people, and seeks to further enrich them. These languages will serve as the creative venue as well as a productive theme of cultural discussions which are organic to Filipino culture and are not loans from foreign cultures. AKDAAN aims to awaken the consciousness of Filipinos to a nationalist, analytical and profoundly important portrayal of the situation and aspirations of the nation. The literary pieces and artistic creations will root out the factors and obstacles that create a colonialized, commercialized and repressive culture. AKDAAN is involved in a nationalist movement, along with other sectors that advocate for change in society. AKDAAN holds training sessions wherein people can hone their literary and artistic skills and talents. Workshops, discussions and study sessions will be available, to assist in the liberation of our culture from centuries of oppression by colonialist cultures. As AKDAAN's contribution to the growth and proliferation of a great nationalist and mass-oriented culture, it provides such sessions as a venue for the critical evaluation of the following literary and artistic creations: creative writing pieces; original music and songs; creations in the visual arts; musical compositions using indigenous instruments; creative presentations in theatre and dance.
