I'm a Filipino writer, researcher, activist, neophyte indie book publisher and small entrepreneur.

Our small, upstart indie publishing outfit, Southern Voices Press, has come up with two publications so far.

I've had one essay included (with a co-author) in this compilation:
http://www.shelfari.com/books/4208497/Subverting-the-People-s-Will-The-May-10-2004-Elections?N=T

I've had another essay referenced in a different book, two others in a local English-language newsmagazine which are widely posted online, and had some more articles posted online.

Here's my Bio page at Bookmooch:

And my Bookmooch Inventory page:
http://www.bookmooch.com/inventory/joelg

My shelf aims to encompass all the books I've accumulated through the years, including books for my four kids, to make the most use of Shelfari's feature of exporting your shelf as a database file, as well as address concerns of some shelfarian parents.

Apart from the children's books, my shelf leans heavily on nonfiction, specifically politics and, more specifically, deep politics. I firmly believe mankind has been long oppressed and deceived bigtime by the power elite and that covert, criminal action has been at the heart of U.S. and Western foreign policy since the last century, much information of which continues to be denied mankind. Frankly, we haven't an inkling of and seen the worst crimes of the powerful few. And we obviously deserve being in a far better situation than we are in now.

In this light then, the authors who dare blow the whistle and bust the supercrimes and hypercriminals deserve to get all the support they need. Because we all deserve a world that we can really say belongs to the 21st century--a world free of criminal Empire, bereft of obscene and medieval social inequality and injustice, a world we can with conscience impart to our children.
