Manny Asuncion: A worker who embraced the bigger fight for social justice
By JUSTIN UMALI
SANTA CRUZ, Laguna Activists use the term ‘ka’, short for ‘kasama’ (comrade), as a term of endearment and a sign of respect to those who willingly took on the road less travelled. For his comrades in the Southern Tagalog region, Emmanuel Asuncion was more than just ‘Ka Manny’; he was a father of struggle in Cavite.
Those who knew him will say the same: he was always full of insight. He always had something to share during meetings, and you would be hard-pressed to try and stop him.
