"SHEroes Monologues"
written by Elena Mangahas, Gloria Ramos and Marily Mondejar.
Script updated 2010 by Sol Manaay, Elena Mangahas and Marily Mondejar
Celebrating the Anniversary of Philippine Independence
@ the FWN Salo Salo
Not much has been written about the Filipino women
of the Philippine Revolution.
Mostly mothers, wives and/or children of the Katipuneros, they followed their men, risking their lives on the battlefields and/or aiding the revolutionists in more conventional ways to advance the cause of freedom.
No More. Come to the Salo Salo on June 27 as we celebrate the SHEroes of the Philippine Revolution.
~ Learn more the lives of these incredible Filipinas who contributed to our freedom from the Spanish and American Regimes ~
