(SPOT.ph) The Philippines celebrates its 122nd Independence Day today, June 12. While most of the country is still under quarantine due to the pandemic, Filipinos are out on the streets at a grand "mañanita" (a nod to a certain Major General's birthday celebration that took place at a time of strict social-distancing rules) to practice their right to free speech and peaceful assembly and give the government a piece of their mind. Making a stand is not limited to just private citizens—brands are starting to make a statement, too! Case in point: popular tumbler brand Klean Kanteen.
In a Facebook post, Klean Kanteen writes: "We believe in change that lasts a lifetime. This Independence Day, we stand proudly with our countrymen pushing for a more just, more equitable, and more humane society. Padayon!" The message is accompanied with three digital renders of Klean Kanteen's tumblers, each one artfully labelled with "#MassTestingNow," "#JunkTerrorBill," and "StopTheKillings." The Facebook post also links to several resources to back up their stand about the three national issues they've highlighted in their post.
Check it out:

While the tumblers are only digital renders, our hopes are high that Klean Kanteen turns them into actual tumbler designs so we can all quench our thirsts—with a bold statement.Â
