'EDSA spirit is alive': Aquino family speaks against historical revisionism

The family members added that they also stand together with those who serve for a better future for the country. READ:

While members of the family of democracy icons—former senator Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr. and former president Corazon Aquino—believe that the spirit of the bloodless 1986 people power revolt is still alive today, they spoke out against attempts at dictatorship and historical revisionism.

Though largely away from public eye since former president Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III died in 2021, the Aquino family joined the nation in commemorating the 37th anniversary of the EDSA People Power Revolution, a historic event that ended the Marcos dictatorship in 1986 and elected the Aquino matriarch to the presidency.

“It is that same spirit that guards and protects our democracy, confronting those who attempt to deceive us and undermine our rights and liberties,” the family added.
