EDSA REVOLUTION 2 - Philippines People Power Revolution 33:02

People Power refers to the popular uprising that ousted Philippine president Ferdinand E. Marcos in February 1986. Also known as the EDSA Revolution, the uprising was in reaction to the massive fraud and violence unleashed by the government to ensure that Marcos and vice presidential candidate Arturo Tolentino would win the so-called snap elections that Marcos had called earlier that month. The opposition ticket was headed by Corazon Aquino, wife of former Senator Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino, who was assassinated in 1983 by elements of the Philippine military as he debarked his plane at the Manila International Airport (since renamed Ninoy Aquino International Airport). The peaceful uprising became a model for other countries wishing to change their government without resort to a military coup or a bloody revolution.

  • This footage shows military action in the Philippines. Airplanes, boats and ships line the shore, and the smoke blots out the sky. Soldiers march through the high grass, hose down the street, or carry wounded or dead soldiers. Tanks make their own path through the madness. The footage includes good aerial camera shots of the island. See the full length video at: www.qualityinformationpublishers.com
