Description: This persuasive and revealing analysis counters prevailing myths about the Philippines and their people, painting a vivid picture of their history and struggle for independence. Drawing upon research, the author argues that the Philippines is far from the backward nation portrayed by its detractors but rather a vibrant, self-governed society with a rich culture and democratic institutions. Written during a pivotal time in history, this book challenges the prevailing colonialist attitudes of the early 20th century, shedding light on the Philippines' aspirations for sovereignty and their right to determine their own destiny. Its examination of the arguments for and against Philippine independence provides valuable insights into the dynamics of colonialism and the enduring principles of self-determination.
