From Filipino Voices. The Maguindanao Massacre, with a death toll of 64 at the time of this writing, has once again put Mindanao on the national spotlight, and even in the international spotlight. With the death of members of a political family, including lawyers, and members of media, this tragedy has not only brought about indignation in Philippine society, but has once again brought upon itself the collective focus from different sectors of society towards the entrenched political violence that has come to define certain parts of Mindanao during elections.
