Pagbabalik Tanaw sa EDSA 1
Flickr user Bong Manayon says: These photos were taken around Greenhills, outside Club Filipino, just before Cory Aquino was inaugurated as President on Tuesday, February 25, 1986. When the events of 1986 unfolded, I was proverbially locked in by prayer meetings (I'm protestant) and a father (who was a Marcos loyalist) who did not want us to join any of the mass actions. Monday (24th), I was able to sneak out with my brother, Noel Manayon, to join the crowd between Crame and Aguinaldo; he took most of the photos on that day climbing up on one of those electric light post in the middle of EDSA while was at ground level. On Tuesday morning, we went to Greenhills for Cory Aquino's inauguration. I found myself in front of the heroes of EDSA 1986 as they marched into Club Filipino.
