While most of the Millennials and Gen Zs aren’t born yet during this historical event, we all want to have a glimpse of what really happened during that time. Sure, it happened in 1986, but we’re not all gonna lie that this event still affects the Philippines today. Hence, it’s every Filipinos’ responsibility to educate themselves of what happened back then and how are we all going to make sense of it today.]]> 2022-02-14 04:21:06 UTC https://padlet.com/alyssamagbanua/54b68uv9ps7hwbcn/wish/2045399971 alyssamagbanua https://padlet.com/alyssamagbanua/54b68uv9ps7hwbcn/wish/2045407404 On February 20, 1986, Marcos proclaimed himself victor of the snap elections, and was set to retain the presidency; on the same day, Corazon C. Aquino led a people’s victory rally at Luneta and called for civil disobedience, which included the boycotting of known Marcos-crony institutions. Two million people took up the cause with her at that rally; stocks of singled-out companies fell the very next day. Marcos responded with the threat of reinstating Martial Law, should Cory Aquino lead a nationwide strike; he, too, orchestrated a mass demonstration of support—reports emerged that twelve million pesos had been earmarked to pay supporters to attend a proclamation rally in his honor at Luneta.]]> 2022-02-14 04:27:10 UTC https://padlet.com/alyssamagbanua/54b68uv9ps7hwbcn/wish/2045407404
