Filipinos’ finest hour: People Power

/ 12:04 AM February 25, 2017

Civilians protected the military at Edsa in February 1986.

Not since several hundred thousand Filipino guerrillas in World War II—possibly the largest resistance movement in the world at that time—had the Filipino people shown such disregard for danger. Perhaps it wasn’t a revolution, but it certainly sent a dictator packing. It was the Filipinos’ finest hour. There is no disputing that fact.
