IN CENTURIES OVER, AETAS WERE REGARDED AS CLASSIC MINORITY. TODAY, THEIR BEING MINORITY HAS PROPELLED THEM TO TAKE UP ARMS TO SURVIVE.TEXT AND PHOTOS BY JHONG DELA CRUZ
A tribe member prefers not to sit on the issues that confront his sector, often regarded as 'monitority'
The Aetas put up a ritual called 'talbeg' where they butchered a pig to denounce the spate of killings that has already claimed 725 lives. At least 72 have been killed belonging to indigenous tribes
Aeta women are warriors too, coming to the protest to fight destructive development projects...
...And kids too
Straight from Zambales, Aetas picket the government's environment department
Peering through a gate, this Aeta kid had seen the excesses of development projects to tribes at early age

Shyly, youngsters, in tow by their mothers, join the protest
