Unsung Heroes of the Philippines
Unsung Heroes refer to the so-called “Forgotten People” in Philippine history – people who, unfortunately, were not given much attention in traditional studies and mainstream histories, but are equally heroic in their own simple yet significant ways. They are the peripherally discussed or rarely mentioned people who have nonetheless distinguished themselves for their heroic deeds and martyrdoms. They have often worked behind “prominent” heroes, but have done dangerous and complicated tasks which made many battles and revolts possible, if not successful.
And now, Filipinos should recognize the heroism and patriotism of these “Unsung Heroes” who have contributed to the development of Filipino nationalism and the transformation of Philippine society.
