Kalbaryo ng Sambayanan (2011)

Members of progressive groups led by Bagong Alyansang Makabayan-National Capital Region (BAYAN-NCR) and Kalipunan ng Damayang Mahihirap (KADAMAY) depicted the "Kalbaryo ng Sambayanan" through Juan dela Cruz as the modern Christ carrying a crucifix of price hikes, unemployment, privatization and deregulation. They represented characters masked as Uncle Sam (U.S.), President Noynoy Aquino, the local ruling class and the Armed Forces of the Philippines beating Juan dela Cruz as modern Pontius Pilate who ruled to crucify Jesus Christ to death.
