35th EDSA Anniversary

By MovePH @MovePH
Contrary to historical revisionists, the 1986 People Power wasn't merely a group of masses in EDSA. It was a nationwide rally. There were people that protested in Baguio, Davao, Iloilo, among other places. It was celebrated all over the country.

People Power 1 is a momentum for the people's movement against the Marcos dictatorship What went wrong? Not the EDSA uprising, but the illusion of some (even among ND leadership) that massive protests, election, is the end-all of the revolution Di na ito dapat maulit #EDSA35

napatalsik man ng nagkaisang hanay ng masa si Marcos noong 1986 ngunit nagpatuloy parin ang pasismo at panggigipit ng estado sa mga mamamayang Pilipino. gayunpaman, walang diktador ang makakatalo sa ating lakas na magmumula sa sama-sama nating pakikibaka at paglaban! ✊🏼 #EDSA35

"While the Duterte regime, like Marcos before, thinks that their show of violence will prevail, we will continue to widen our ranks and further mobilize the widest range of students towards the overthrow of fascism and the fight for national democracy." #EDSA35 #OUSTDUTERTENOW

People are a country's power. No government must control the people, source of a country's taxes. You're a member of the people. Always remember that you have power. The government is your servant, not the other way around. #EDSA35 #PeoplePower35

WATCH: Activists march along EDSA on Thursday, February 25, to commemorate the 35th year of People Power. The commemoration is specially poignant today amid the government's red tagging and passage of a draconian anti-terror law. #EDSA35 Video by Kris Angel Ditan
