Rebellious is the second book in the RESILIENT Trilogy. It gives a rare insight on how the failed socialist revolution began. Two teens recruited to fight a revolution that prompted Martial Law in the Philippines, fight to keep each other in the raging political and cultural transformation brought by the late 60's. They were members of a student organization founded at the University of the Philippines. What started as a small group took on the mission to teach all sectors that there is more to politics than voting on elections. It identified the ills of society, explained the roots and organized the struggle for a socialist alternative. It was a subversive idea today and more so in 1964. The members multiplied in UP Diliman Chapter. Some enrolled in other universities for the main purpose of building other chapters. Soon there were Chapters, in other universities. Some members were assigned to the labor sector, coordinating between unions and building new ones. Other members were assigned to the divided and disorganized transport sector. In a matter of time, jeepney strikes were demanding and winning fare hikes. Students who could have had a good life died or wasted their years in jail or in hiding.
