MANILA, Philippines — At 74, Elmer Cordero stood defiantly before the US Embassy in Manila, his fist held high and his placard proudly displayed. He marched through the sweltering heat on Labor Day, united with his fellow citizens in their quest for meaningful transformation. If given the choice, Cordero said he wouldn't have joined the protest. The years have taken their toll on his face and body. 'Kaya lang, siyempre kasama rin ako para magtagumpay din ang mga taong mahihirap [But of course, I chose to join so marginalized people will come out victorious],' he said.
