This very same day, 1897, by the order of Emilio Aguinaldo, Andres Bonifacio was brutally executed. His wife, Gregoria, was raped by Aguinaldos men and was left alone in the petrified mountain half naked to search for his espouses corpse on which she never found. Since the days of the Revolution, the poor had always been barred from power and have a voice. The man who desired the Philippines to be a province of Spain and wrote a novel only the educated rich could understand because it was in archaic Castillian is hailed as the greatest hero of the country. The man who murdered the Father of the Revolution and General Luna, the first authoritarian president, the man who escaped to Hong Kong for safety while the revolutionaries are experiencing genocide, the man who surrendered to America and collaborated with Japan, is considered to be the greater. Greed. Power. Social control. Wake up.
