Filipino Civil Rights Movement

The Filipino Civil Rights Movement was a struggle during the 20th century to secure equal rights and justice for Filipinos, often in response to colonial and authoritarian rule. It involved advocacy for political freedom, human rights, and social reforms, challenging oppression, discrimination, and injustices. Leaders and groups organized protests, campaigns, and legal efforts to promote democracy, freedom of expression, and equal treatment under the law. This movement played a crucial role in shaping the Philippines' path toward independence and democratic governance, reflecting the Filipino people's resilience and desire for justice and equality.
