Lakas and the Makibaka Hotel/si Lakas at Ang Makibaka Hotel Si Lakas at Ang Makibaka Hotel

When Lakas strolls through his neighborhood one sunny afternoon, the last thing he expects to find is a group of tap-dancing, drum-beating, karaoke-singing new friends. But his friends face a crisis: their home, the Hotel Makibaka, is about to be sold. They must pack their belongings and leave in 30 days. But in a rapidly gentrifying neighborhood, where is there to go? Their rollicking protest against eviction becomes a clarion call to the community, but is it enough to save the Makibaka? Carl Angel's effervescent paintings vibrate with the rich urban rhythms of city life in this second collaboration with author and poet Anthony D. Robles.Angel, Carl is the author of 'Lakas and the Makibaka Hotel/si Lakas at Ang Makibaka Hotel Si Lakas at Ang Makibaka Hotel', published 2006 under ISBN 9780892392131 and ISBN 0892392134.
