The Ilustrado "Wooga Squad"
Description
In this episode, Carmina and Patch discuss why they bestowed the “Wooga” title on the ilustrados, an esteemed squad of Spanish-colonial-era Filipinos whose aspirations for their country transcended physical, intellectual, and societal borders. Learn how each of their important contributions, alongside fellow ilustrado Jose Rizal’s, became the foundation of Filipino national consciousness.
