IN MEMORY OF FREEDOM

The Black and White Movement, in commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the EDSA People Power Revolution, will be participating in the following activities:
  • Wednesday, 22 February: The Citizens’ Pilgrimage for Truth & Reforms (U Can’t Con Ass!) will march at 1pm and converge at the People Power Monument from the north (Bantayog, Quezon City), south (via SLEX), and Metro Manila. Program at the People Power Monument starts at 4pm. (DONE!)
  • Friday, 24 February: Black & White joins the people of Makati as the city celebrates the People Power Revolution with a march to be led by former Pres. Cory Aquino at 3pm from the Makati City Fire Station to the Ninoy Aquino Statue on Ayala Avenue. A highlight will be the first yellow confetti drop since the famous Makati rallies against Marcos.
  • Saturday, 25 February: A Mass to celebrate the 20th anniversary of EDSA I, to be celebrated by Archbishop Gaudencio Rosales and attended by EDSA I veterans led by former Pres. Cory Aquino

We encourage our fellow citizens to participate in these activities that serve as a reminder of the ideals that motivated our people to reclaim and restore their freedom.

I'd really like to know why you keep asking us who we'd want to take over? Who would you want to take over? Have you ever stopped to think about it? Because, God forbid, whoever "we" put into power, you may not like. Why leave the choice to us?
What we really want to do is make our countrymen aware that there are tools to make informed choices - a clean COMELEC, the freedom of choice, a good education that develops the ability to discern.
Unless you feel that te current administration is doing ok and you don't mind having your freedoms stifled. You're probably too young to remember martial law. You should brush up on your history.
