Zine Development #7

One of the pages, after seeing Stephanie Lebonas work, I liked the idea of doing quite simple, balanced pages. Wanted to create a spread showing the idea of a policemen chasing after a criminal. Idea that hand is reaching, and feet are running. Quite like the balance of the pages but don't know if they look TOO simple? bit boring?

Drug suspect killed in S. Kudarat shootout

#PHnews: Drug suspect killed in S. Kudarat shootout

COTABATO CITY -- Police killed a suspected drug peddler in Esperanza, Sultan Kudarat, in a shootout Wednesday, an official said. Brig. Gen. Alfred Corpus, director of the Police Regional Office -12, identified the slain suspect as Maula Managuili Kadil, 37, of Lambayong, Sultan Kudarat. “The suspect died in the drug bust operation after resorting to violence in resisting a lawful arrest using a firearm,” Corpus said. He said a police poseur-buyer and the suspect had earlier agreed to meet at the border of barangays Salabaca and Daladap, both in Esperanza, for a drug deal on Wednesday morning. Shortly before noon, the suspect arrived with a still unidentified companion onboard a motorcycle at the site.  However, as the exchange was taking place, Corpus said Kadil sensed that he was dealing with a cop, prompting him to draw out a gun. Kadil fired at the poseur-buyer who managed to run for cover as other undercover cops engaged the suspect in a shootout, the police official said. Kadil died on the spot as his companion sped off on a motorcycle waiting nearby. Recovered from the slain suspect was a .38-caliber pistol, seven sachets of suspected shabu, a disposable lighter, a wallet, and the PHP500 marked money. Meanwhile, police agents also collared on the same day Janmark Docusin Caspillan, 37, of Barangay San Pablo in Tacurong City of the same province. Caspillan was arrested around 4 p.m. after handing over to a police agent a sachet of shabu near his home. Recovered from Caspillan’s possession were three small sachets of shabu, an improvised tooter, and two PHP500 marked money. In Makilala, North Cotabato, police agents said they nabbed drug suspect Dante Malfetria Begasin, 29, of Barangay Saguing after selling two sachets of shabu amounting to PHP1,000 to a poseur buyer. In Midsayap, North Cotabato, drug suspect Mark Jefrem Lebona Deanon, 33, of Barangay Bual Norte, was arrested following a drug sting operation in the area, police said. Confiscated from Deanon was a sachet of shabu and the PHP500 marked money. All arrested suspects were charged for violation of the Republic Act 9165 or the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.

Review of Down Second Avenue by Ezekiel/Es’kia Mphahlele

Rating: 3/5

Mphahlele was born in 1919. This autobiography was published in 1959. Whether or not you know a lot about South African history, reading his account of a person growing up in Maupaneng (a village in Limpopo) and Marabastad (a settlement near Pretoria), and then struggling to find fulfilling work in cities run by a government, which was trying its best to stifle and dehumanise Black citizens in any ridiculous way possible, you will probably gain a little insight into why South Africa is the way it is today.

The resilience displayed by Mphahlele is amazing. Despite the infuriating racism he faced – whether from the white people he delivered laundry or messages to, or from the white bureaucracy, which restricted his movements and opportunities – he managed to pursue an education and a teaching and writing career. 

Mphahlele’s writing is honest. He does not shy away from airing his opinions on the African National Congress versus Alliance African Convention debate, or his disillusionment with journalism and the church. He does not hide his feelings about leaving a country where his family members continued to suffer under a ruthless apartheid regime.

The anecdotes the author shares about his fellow residents of Second Avenue are particularly engaging. Ma-Lebona definitely stole the show a few times. It was easy to see how, after being surrounded by such interesting people, who were subjected to poverty and scattered by forced removals, Mphahlele remained haunted by his memories of the community.
