New School: Will the Philippine History subject just be
forgotten? Jan 26, 2021 Mary Rhonilynn A. Alejo 'Is this removal of Philippine History a new way of censorship? Sadly, it is.' When I first learned that DepEd was removing Philippine History from the secondary level curriculum, I honestly didn’t mind, because let's be honest, we all tried to find ways to lessen our workload when we were at that age. But as time went by, I realized this step DepEd made back in 2014 affected the youth's knowledge about the history of their own country. |

The British Conquest of Manila On October 6, 1762, the city of Manila was conquered by the British, starting a two year period of British rule. At around 4:00 a.m., under the cover of artillery fire, Colonel William Draper and his men entered Manila. This was the first time the Spaniards had been ousted from their Asian colony by a foreign power. The conflict between the European powers during the period of 1756–1763 spilled over to their colonies in Asia. One of the outcomes was a two-year period of British control over the Philippine Islands. Look in full size the map The Attack of Manila, october 1792 and the poster British-occupation |

Heneral Rizal Tanghalang Pilipino August 17, 2020 Heneral Rizal recounts the story of our national hero’s elder brother, Paciano. History books and other references have regarded Paciano as the ever-supportive brother of Jose Rizal; but unbeknownst to many, he was a General who had close relations with both Andres Bonifacio and Emilio Jacinto, coordinating various military operations. His bravery was greatly exhibited when he led the forces that liberated Calamba. In this highly-charged and deeply-emotional monologue, Heneral Rizal chronicles the Philippine revolution in the lens of the noble General. Look also this article |

Gina Lopez Aug 19 2019 Today we woke up, with the sun a little less bright and somehow the greens a little less vibrant. And it's because today we lost a warrior, a patriot, a lover of life and love but as we mourn, we will also celebrate the life that Gina Lopez led. Her stint as environment secretary may have been brief but for many of Gina Lopez's colleagues, her legacy lives on in the initiatives she began. In this interview, former social welfare secretary Judy Taguiwalo recalls how Gina bravely stood her ground despite facing staunch opposition for her radical environmental initiatives, while anti-mining advocate Jaybee Garganera vows to see through what the late secretary had begun.

She was a normal girl makeup, perfumes, dress-making, and dancing piqued her interest. She was also a title-holder. But on March 2, 1942, makeup turned into guns, dancing turned into fighting, and the beauty queen gained yet a new title: Kumander Liwayway. Remedios Gomez-Paraiso, also known as the Philippines’ Joan of Arc, was a force to be reckoned with as she promised to avenge the death of her father against the hands of the foreign invaders. This sparked the flame in her heart and later on, she decided to join Hukbalahap or Hukbong Laban Sa Hapon. She died in 2014, at age 95.

That was, until the only son and namesake of dictator Ferdinand Marcos started climbing up in election surveys and, later, the family won its decades-long campaign to bury the former president as a hero. This is where 30 years have brought the country. In 1986, Marcos was ousted from power as thousands gathered peacefully on EDSA |
