EDSA WRAP... or is it?
It was the revolution that stunned the world. Millions of Filipinos managing to oust — without a single drop of blood shed — a brutal dictator who ruled for 20 years that included glory days, torture, and killings? For a brief, shining moment, the Philippines was the inspiration of the world. Almost 40 years later, what does EDSA mean? In this episode, we flip with veteran journalist and author of The House on Calle Sombra, Marga Ortigas, and businessman, non-profit champion, and writer of Philippine politics, culture, history and identity, Nik Skalomenos de Ynchausti. What was EDSA for Filipinos and the world? Why was it glorious? Where did we fail? And more importantly, how do we channel the same courage and hope to accomplish revolutionary change?
