Did you know that the Philippines was sold for US$20M through the 1898 Treaty of Paris???

As the Philippines and Filipino communities around the world prepares to celebrate Independence Day on June 12th, the name Jose Rizal rightfully takes centre stage. But what if heroism runs deeper than just one monument?

Join Anna and Razel, as they delve into the rich and diverse mosaic of Filipino heroes beyond Rizal. Both will challenge conventional definitions of heroism, unearthing stories of bravery and sacrifice from history's unsung figures to today's inspiring changemakers. They will also tackle critical questions: How do new generations perceive and recognise heroes in a rapidly changing world? And where do patriotism and nationalism diverge in our nation's identity?

Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that celebrates the multi-faceted spirit of Filipino heroism, past and present.
