The groups put the spotlight on continued oppression and economic woes as the nation commemorates its first People Power Revolution anniversary under another Marcos. EDSA37

“Defiant under a Marcos, Jr. regime that was catapulted through historical distortion and disinformation, the Filipino youth and many other sectors march today to uphold historical truth – that rampant human rights violations and extreme poverty urged many sectors to foment a popular uprising in EDSA and other urban centers in the Philippines to oust the dictator Marcos,” said Kej Andres, national spokesperson for the Student Christian Movement of the Philippines.

“To truly remember this people power spirit is to keep the aspirations of the Filipino people alive. Thirty-seven years ago today, the people dared to dream and fight for truth, justice, genuine freedom, and the betterment of their lives. It is important to keep these dreams and the will to fight alive, especially now that the Marcoses are consolidating their power and wealth once more and are quickly unleashing their iron fist against protest and dissent,” Karapatan said.

“Today, we remember the heroism of the Filipino people who fought to end the Marcos dictatorship, thus restoring democracy in our country,” the Aquino family said in a statement on Saturday.
