Bagong Kolonyalismo part 1

Part 1 of 2
"Bagong Kolonyalismo" is a short documentary/satire about a social issue present in the time of El Filibusterismo, Dr. Jose Rizal's(the Philippines' National Hero) historical book and and still present in our society today. The title translates to Neocolonialism.

The film focuses on greed and how it was introduced by the conquistadors to the Filipinos in the 1500's through their exploitation of the Philippines' Natural Resources. Today, this greed has taken a new form: Consumerism. And Colonization still happens through Imports making third world countries dependent on "bigger, richer countries."

This film was the collaborative project of several Fourth Year High School Students from PAREF Springdale School, Cebu, Philippines

Please watch and comment on the film! Daghang Salamat!

What they did to the Aztecs is the same tactic theyve done to my Ancestors, they murder just to colonize...

[lapu2xdescendant3]

One fact is, try to watch the HISTORY CHANNEL, you can see how the Conquistadors enter the kingdom of the AZTECS IN MEXICO. First thing is they make business with the leaders until the Aztecs allow them to live in them, but the Spaniards make some issues so that they can make war. The fact is the Spaniards didnt fight on face to face, they MURDER majority of the AZTECS, Take note people!!! THE Spaniards are MURDERERS!!!!!

I dont really dont believe all stories from the book, in fact im one of the descendants of Lapu-Lapu and i live here in Mindanao and i make studies of our livings here, my uncle is a member MNLF. I know better than you all people, and my point is "THE SPANIARDS DID NOT CONQUER ALL PHILIPPINE ISLANDS SPECIALLY MINDANAO." Theres a lot of natives and mislims who resist and did really fought bravely..
