Sandugo definition
Sandugo is a Visayan term which means “one blood.” The work of the same name by Federico “boyD” Dominguez is meant to illustrate the coming together of different tribes for the common cause of self- determination. It also serves as the logo of the Sandugo alliance. Besides tracing his ancestry to the indigenous Mandaya people of Davao Oriental, boyD also embodies the indigenous heritage through active participation in the plight of the indigenous people across issues that encompass the environment and the right to ancestral domain. His second featured illustration in the exhibit, “Pangiyaki, I Matoy” (a time to fight till death), is meant to symbolize the ardent assertion of indigenous peoples in fighting for their rights.
