One of the biggest revelations I've had was when I studied history for a year at a state university in Mindanao and had access to materials and books that were often not found in the universities in NCR. Down south they remember everything. They remember their independence, and the atrocities committed against them, and they remember the dignity of the kingdoms of the Philippine Islands before it was erased by western culture, and the subsequent conditioning of the people. Precolonial Philippines was badass.

Jebus, but you are one sad lad. I was married there as well, though living here, in Honolulu. Maybe you might notice the endemic graft and corruption that plagues the PI. Even though no more Smokey Mountain, you might want to compare Tondo to, say, Forbes Park, and then ask yourself how is it that some really don't care in the slightest about their own people. As far as "using" others, maybe visit a decent local library and compare death from endemic cholera before US rule to rather less death during. And for more not caring, after we left, the cholera rate rose again (though not to Spanish rule level). We weren't perfect, and to correct the misfit who made this vid, you weren't made a State owing to your population. You've got around 110 mil now compared to around 330 mil total in the US. Sorry, but we didn't take over the place so you could became a State and death squad Duterte could be Pres in lieu of Trump. By the way, Les, how are death squads? At least in this land, we try to make it, on your own merit. In the PI, if you don't have the bloodline or the compadres, you're screwed.Which is to say, in a very fundamental respect, neither Spain nor the US put a dent in the Filipino mentality. And last word on death squads, also Filipino tradition, plenty deaths in Tondo but where are the high and mighty who were shot dead? Same with the graft and corruption. Oh, and when a high and mighty goes down for graft/corruption, the smart money is on her or him being in the political minority group (can't politically change the place from a jail cell). Lastly, if some were so happy and all, then why Luis Taruc and the Huks? Maybe gather, as anyone who knows the PI knows, brown can exploit brown just as easily as white can. Been there and seen that, and as beautiful as the place is, nothing quite those ratty coconut trees swaying in the breeze when the rice is green, the exploitation makes the place unlivable. At least if one has another option. So be happy.

Frankly watching this video and Johnny Harris' video was quite tough for me to watch. We (Filipinos) have for the most part view America very highly because of our very close ties with the U.S. and that are education and government largely came from the United States. Because of this, it makes it very difficult to genuinely acknowledge the atrocities that the United States has committed against our people. Due to how politically inconvenient it is to teach to our people the truth about the Philippine-American War due to our very close association with the United States, this part of our History is NOT properly taught.

But you can't deny that america actually did some good things in the philppines. They allowed some autonomy and they also made education a mandatory. They introduced public school. They also suppressed the abusive catholic church that always love to interfere in politics. While during the spanish era, there is basically no freedom or less freedom. The spaniards keep the people ignorant so that they will not revolt. Most of the schools are private schools and owned by the church. It is not for everyone. Only the upper class filipinos or the insulares (filipinos with spanish descent) can study there. There is also the polo y servicio or forced labor.

I'm Spanish and in my country they don't teach us almost anything about Philippines. I searched for information myself and discover that Spanish people were just "indifferent" about Filipinos for a long time. They committed cruel crimes, as all the empires ever have done, that's true. But I don't understand why nobody talks about the good things the Spanish did. For example, the Spanish people built hospitals, universities, churches and even declared free public education (laws of 1863) for everyone! With this politics the literacy increased a lot. Also, they brought some useful inventions like the printer, the watch, the stone constructions and the plow system. The Spanish rulers also wanted Spanish people to travel to Philippines and mix with the local people, as it happened in America, to integrate this territory but this couldn't be possible because of the huge distances. Then the US came and destroyed all the Spanish Empire had done there.

this craving for international validation and pinoy-baiting is VERY REAL and I agree that this is rooted from our colonial mentality, its very obvious. it is what it is, we just need to accept it (as if we can change it overnight), whats important is awareness so we don't get abused. I believe in time, this mentality will become obsolete, that Filipinos in general will eventually be enlightened and find this #pinoypride thing eventually becomes baduy/cringey. Our culture and our minds were poisoned by our colonizers from the past and this thinking was subliminally embedded to our mind since we are born. this has lasted hundreds of years up to this very day. that the wars, genocide and oppression of the Filipino people is not the worst thing that happen to us BUT the miseducation they left us (Americans are the worst). it has been ingrained to our culture long after the war is over and after supposedly become independent. it will take generations before it goes away. maybe not this generation but definitely in the future and we are on our way on enlightenment with big thanks to internet and globalization.

Even on his video "Why china took over QWERTY." He had to make sure he has a native for china and taiwanese both to check on it.

They did not understand that we would grow up feeling lost and sad when it comes to our Filipino heritage. There’s always discrimination all over the world, and Filipinos I’m not above that. Filipinos are discriminated against whether you are a native or a non-native of the homeland. I’m really happy I found your video and your channel as I’ve been seeking more understanding on my Filipino heritage to a deeper level. There is much discord and arguments when it comes to our history and who we are as a people. There seems to be so much hate between the native and the American Filipino and that shouldn’t be because we all come from the same ancestors. Our ancestors would be heartbroken to see what has become of us. I hope to bring healing to our people, to the whole Filipino diaspora. I will be watching much more of your stuff.

US never gave the Philippines democracy and freedom because even after WWII and 1945, they were still here in the Philippines, their forces are still here. After 1945, the Philippines were administered by US client regimes and onwards. Before 1945, they FORCED and gave the Philippines no option to agree with the notorious Bell Trade Act; among other unfair clauses in that act, it forever pegged the Filipino peso to US dollar. Their claims that US granted the Philippines independence was nothing more but a hollow declaration written on cheap paper. In a stricter sense, we are no longer a colony of the US, but we are still under their mantle. You know what is that called? It is called, “NEOCOLONIALISM”. Modern day colonialism and imperialism is by installing client regimes or politicians and mouthpiece such as mainstream medias, social medias, personalities, and other all sorts of things. Be careful with the US government and US mainstream medias including Canada, Australia, New Zealand, UK.

When I went to the Philippines, I studied their history a little about the Spaniards, and after that the colonization by the US. In Google I saw an article " US war crimes in the Philippines" with Photo's of these atrocities This article stated also that they estimated that the US had killed more civilians there in the beginning 15 years, than the Spaniards did in 300 years. I was very surprised that most Philippino's see the Americans as friends, until I found out that most people didn't know the history of their country. They had never learned it in school. The only time I heard it from a person in the Philippines was from President Duterte.

I have found the same thing of not knowing history. When asking about this, my wife and filippino family knew nothing about it. Took them to dinner at this one restaurant that had paintings-battle scenes and the famous KKK as part pf the mural. Did not learn about anything until I looked it up online. There are reasons I am not sharing on why it does matter to me and there is a lot more that people do not know about unless you talk to the right people and just happen to find someone who knew.

New sub here, and ashamed to say you're my first Filipino video essay sub. While I think the referenced video meant well, what many in this comments section fail to realize is that Harris didn't write that essay for a Filipino audience, but to expose US atrocities abroad to Americans, in light of the many political movements happening there now, and to show why they are relevant. This is why I think what you're doing with your channel is great, and more people should follow your example. We Filipinos have a significant worldwide presence in social media, so maybe it's time we took control of the narrative when it comes to our history and culture. There are so many things we have yet to say, and what better platform is there? Thanks for doing this, Kirby. Keep up the great work.

I retired a US officer in the US Army and respected by peers and subordinate and by all colors. But in PI you as a filipino decent with dark skin I have been discriminated of all source. Sadly, even at the US embassy, filipino workers treat white nicely than the FilAm. This resonates the behavior of white or foreign people against filipinos. Even in our own land, the visitors abuses Filipinos, unfairly treat Filipinos like second citizens.

It is the same situation here in the U.K. We too have a lot of ‘inconvenient truths’ about our long colonial past which many are unaware of. It is our job as historians to bring these facts into the mainstream so that future generations can gain a more balanced insight into the past.

As a spaniard, I think I should remember everyone the attempts of the spanish government to integrate its overseas territories into the country and bring the local population more civil responsabilities and rights. The Autonomy Charter of Puerto Rico of 1897 was, alongside the Autonomy Charter of Cuba, the first Statute of Autonomy granted in Spain to a province, in particular to the overseas province of Puerto Rico. It authorized the formation of an autonomous government and was accompanied by the establishment of universal male suffrage in all overseas provinces. The revolts in Cuba and Philippines, alongside the spanish american war of 1898, avoided its implementation and marked the end of the spanish empire.

Spain only agreed to establish autonomy in their colonies because their empire was becoming weaker by then. We Filipinos remember the Filipino activists who advocated for reform and wrote countless treatises and proposals to have Filipino representation in the Cortes Generales, for Filipinos to be equal to Spaniards, for Filipino clergy to have the same standing as Spanish clergy (secularization), to abolish the polo y servicios (enforced labor to all Filipinos of age). This was way, way before the Philippine revolution against Spain. Propagandists such as Jose Rizal, Lopez Jaena, Marcelo del Pilar were advocating for these reforms since the 1880s. But none of their proposals were heard, and that is when Filipinos realized we needed a revolution because the reform movement failed to improve our conditions.

There are lots of historians who will have different views when it comes to the history of the Philippines. We can not change it but but theres a lot of twist and opinions. In my time taking social studies and history of the Philippines, We can all agree that Spain "Re-Discovered" the Phlippines (treaty of tordesillas). Philippines is under Portugal by treaty. Spain is powerful than Portugal. If there is contentions between this two rivals, why did the Pope allow spain to colonize the Philippines? There is something at work here. Spain did not conquer all the Philippines this is the result of many autonomous regions of today. A government may have been establised in Manila but most remain autonomous. Until the arrival of the Americans, Filipino natives are always at war with Spain. But not really. Natives are at war with Spanish Friars who becomes more abusive. Filipinos already adopted the spanish culture and it will be tedious to remain at constant war with the spanish government. When the americans arrived, theres positive and negative opinions. They are more accepted or tolerated because they are more Protestant than Catholics. Are Filipinos unhygenic? Who will bring kubyertos when you are always on the move. Filipinos ate by hands and make banana leaves as their plate. They dont bring so much utensils because they are always at war and hunted down. There are also ethnic tibes called (ilongot) who still practice this. It is true that Philippines have no centralized government in the past, but we do have a centralized harmony between all ethnic groups. This is made thru "blood pact" or sandugo. It was the chinese who really discovered the islands and credits should be to them. They called us "Indianized indian". From India with brown skin. They dont have political relations but do have economic with us. They are probably busy building or fortifying their great wall to keep the invaders out. Philippines did not become Philippines of today. It did not happened in one day. Telling and explaining the history in one day in not enough.

There is also the french, the dutch and the english racing to be an empire. All religion started in Asia including christianity. But christianity practice by westerners will never be a taboo because the west was inspired by the travels of Marco Polo. When the Khanate of the Mongols invited all religions in his empire, Bhuddism and Islam came first. If Marco Polo arrived first, then the world will all be christians. Philippines in this time just before the Spanish Arrival, is like Nuasantran Religion. Hindu / Bhuddist practice. As more and more Bhuddist we become than Hindu (Brhamannism), Filipinos lost the appetite for war because as Bhuddist adherent, they respect all forms of life and have great respect for it. This is the reason Islam spread very fast. In Indonesia, it was embraced by the locals as christianity was embrace by the Visayans. It becomes more a religious race in the Philippines between Islam and Christiam. In luzon the ruling clans are the Lakans which practice Hindu/Bhuddism and Animism. Islam reached Luzon because Bhuddist adherents will never take a life as Islam do for those who will not convert in their religion. This is the reason that the Kingdom of Tundo in Manila was ruled by the Lakans and the Rajahs just opposite side of the rivers. But during this time both Religions whether Islam or Christianity are like folk religion. They are not practiced wholeheartedly. In indonesia, Bali resisted too much Islam and western power thats why hindu/bhuddism is still evident in their culture same like us in Luzon.

Native Filipinos are not at war with the Spanish governement but with the abuse of the Catholic Friars. Since the friars have direct influenced with the spanish government thay they were involved.

Hey Kirby, thanks for sharing your knowledge of our history. I’m also like you, I went to school both in the Philippines and the United States. When I immigrated to the U.S. I thought the white skin was superior than mine, but after living here for a few years I quickly realized that is not the case. My co-workers are Americans and based on my conversations with them, I don’t think they know anything about their colonial history. It’s sad that this is not being taught in the Philippines, it’s very critical to the way we see them. I’m not saying we should hate Americans, but it’s important for our people to know the real history in our country. When I went to school in the Philippines, I didn’t learn about how the Americans tricked the Philippines into believing that they were there to help us or how some of our heroes actually betrayed their own countrymen. Do you know if there are any plans in our school system to correct this? I believe by learning these facts, our children will actually grow up with pride and could eventually change our colonial mentality.

16:25 But mention of the Philippines was not removed from FDR's "Day of Infamy" speech; it was moved to the portion where he lists how far reaching the follow-on attacks were. Johnny's video conveniently neglects to show the second page of the draft where "The Philippine Islands" was written in by hand. In his official address, FDR says: "Yesterday, the Japanese Government also launched an attack against Malaya. Last night Japanese forces attacked Hong Kong. Last night Japanese forces attacked Guam. Last night Japanese forces attacked the Philippine Islands. Last night the Japanese attacked Wake Island, This morning the Japanese attacked Midway Island. Japan has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive extending throughout the Pacific Area." I remember reading there was some initial disagreement among the Japanese command about the necessity of a preemptive attack on Pearl. Some felt the US would not fight to retake the Philippines considering the transition to independence had already begun. With a transitional government in place and a date already set, they wondered if perhaps the US would all but ignore a Japanese invasion. (Having said that, it's very hard to imagine the US just ignoring all the casualties incurred outside Hawaii.)

@@christianreyansus7219 When Americans heard that Pearl Harbor had been attacked, a common response was, "Where the hell is Pearl Harbor?" (In 1941, "The Territory of Hawaii" was also not a U.S. state, though as an "incorporated" territory there was birthright citizenship.) "Remember Pearl Harbor" became the immediate rallying cry because it was the site of the most U.S. casualties, particularly U.S. service personnel...That is what the public wanted revenge for. Headlines would soon shift focus to the Philippines where more U.S. troops would die during the Japanese invasion than had died at Pearl Harbor. Soon "Remember Bataan" became the war cry used on posters. I was saying there likely would have been war whether or not Pearl Harbor was hit. Destroying the Far East Air Force on its bases in the Philippines may not have had the same impact as wrecking the Pacific Fleet, but it would have been more than enough cause for a declaration of war.

The good thing about the American teachers is the fact that they taught the English language. As an OFW, I can say that it's because of our English language proficiency that we are able to work in many parts of the world. But yes, I agree there was indeed a miseducation of the Filipinos.

I was born 1987 and educated mostly through the public school system in rural Cebu, Philippines. I have always been interested with history (world and PH) and have always been critical of it's sources. What was taught in school just didn't make sense to me or at least the details just didn't tell a story. I ending up reading on certain timelines from multiple sources that was available to me at the time (school library). Yes, reading was the main source of information then and documentaries were only available if you had cable, which was a luxury in itself, but my grandmother had a large shelf of books where I would bury myself in reading. I eventually had a better understanding of the events but it was no use discussing with anyone else as no one was really that interested anyway. I am just happy that people like yourself and Johnny Harris presented this part of our history the way you did as it makes an otherwise uninteresting but very important topic very digestible and hopefully lead to more people interested and educated of how we came to be. P.S. It is sad that it took a white man to tell the tale for it to be taken more seriously but at least it now has more weight so all good in the end I guess.

I also recommend watching Heneral Luna, which basically explained what's happening during the Philippine-American War and it is not only the Americans who they were facing.

I'm also astounded by the fact that when Americans came, the Spain have given better education in their colonies than the other colonial powers of their time, specially during the later era of the Spanish Empire, where republicanism is rampant in the empire. The idea spread in Philippines, and Filipinos are able to walk through Europe, and study in Europe protected by Spain. Even when many intellectuals from the Philippines are produced, and the consciousness is rising, the Spain didn't stopped this education, and let their people learn (Because there are many abolitionists, and rising idea for equality, liberty, and republicanism in Spain already at that time, though not all.) When the Americans came however, they found out that Philippines have many educated people already, and the schools that Spaniards built and instituted were continued by Americans and taught that the Spaniards were more evil empire and they came to exploit Philippines. The president of the revolution even said "Yes. I regret to a large extent revolting against Spain and, that's why, when the funerals for the king Alphonse of Spain were celebrated, I showed up to the surprise of the Spaniards. They asked me why had I come to the funeral of the king against who I rebelled. I told them that he continues to be my king because under the Spanish rule we were always Spanish subjects or citizens, but now, under the USA, we are just a consumer market for their exports, they never made us citizens of any state in the USA. The Spanish opened the way for me and treated me like a brother in that significant day." Though the Spaniards did many horrible thing, they are certainly way better than any of the colonial powers of their time. Britain have slaves, Dutch have slave trade, etc, but in the Philippines, they banned slavery immediately, and it was actually their fellow Filipinos who are enslaving their fellowmen (The kingdoms of the South if I'm not wrong). I also doubt that even if Americans never came in the Philippines, the Philippines will still be involved in WW2 because it is a very strategic location up to the very day. Unlike the Thailand who remained independent, Philippines is in a center of water ways that pass through Indonesia, China, Australia, Malaysia, and Vietnam. They won't be spared even if they become independent, unless if Philippines gained independence then rapidly modernizes after the Philippine-Spanish war (like that of Emperor Meiji which deterred any colonial power grabbing into them).

I think the fact that Spain at that time gives opportunities such being able to study in Europe is the reason why the reformist are pushing not the independence of the Philippines but equal rights to the colonies because they saw the benefits of being a part of Spain until the Philippines have developed and be able to stand on its own. The fact that Filipinos were oppressed was mainly due to the corrupt officers and church officials of that time. It would have been better if the reformist succeeded than being colonized by the Americans.

Actually you are. How many times have you kicked the US out only to ask them to come back? And the Philippines, being poor, is a foreign aid receiving country. That's the reason why so many flips refuse to teach about US atrocities because they are scared that Sam might not rush to the Philippines aid if China does something, for example. But really, the Americans won't come to the rescue of the Philippine Islands, it no longer has any strategic or economic value.

I was worried that you are biased since you might patronize the US more rather really putting the facts out there. And with this video I learned so much! I am in a journey of learning and forming identity as a Filipino and your videos will be the start of it. Thank you for really making these videos. Also I am very grateful of the part where you mentioned (clearly) Philippines-American War. I have so much to learn and thanks for laying the direction for this learning
