| Bio: | AVHRC // The Amado V. Hernandez Resource Center (AVHRC) is a grassroots cultural institution which aims to perpetuate and honor the legacy and struggles of Ka Amado. The organization was started by social activist Satur Ocampo, who is now a congressman of the Bayan Muna Party-List, as the Amado V. Hernandez Foundation. Now, the AVHRC is known for holding an annual literary contest in Ka Amado’s name of works written in Filipino and dealing with working-class issues and lives. From its initial categories of short story and poetry, the contest expanded to include songs, plays and comics. While everybody is eligible to join, the AVHRC strongly encourages peasants and workers to write and join. In conjunction with this, it regularly holds literary workshops for them, in order that they may voice out their concerns and tell their lives. The AVHRC also reprints selected Ka Amado’s works in inexpensive editions to be distributed to farmers and laborers.
