Propaganda Movement and the KKK Members

Members

Over the next four years, the Katipunan founders would recruit new members. By the time the society was uncovered, the American writer James Le Roy estimated the strength of the Katipunan at 100,000 to 400,000 members. Historian Teodoro Agoncillo estimated that the membership had increased to around 30,000 by 1896. The Ilocano writer Isabelo de los Reyes estimated membership at 15,000 to 50,000.

Aside from Manila, the Katipunan also had sizeable chapters in Batangas, Laguna, Cavite, Rizal, Bulacan, Pampanga, Tarlac and Nueva Ecija. There were also smaller chapters in Ilocos Sur, Ilocos Norte, Pangasinan and the Bicol region. The Katipunan founders spent their free time recruiting members. For example, Diwa, who was a clerk at a judicial court, was assigned to the office of a justice of the peace in Pampanga. He initiated members in that province as well as Bulacan, Tarlac and Nueva Ecija. Most of the Katipuneros were plebeian although several wealthy patriots joined the society and submitted themselves to the leadership of Bonifacio.

Katipunero (plural, mga Katipunero) is the demonym of a male member of the Katipunan. Katipunera (plural, mga Katipunera) refers to female members.

Prominent members included José Rizal, author of Noli Me Tangere (novel) and El Filibusterismo, Graciano López Jaena, publisher of La Solidaridad, the movement 's principal organ, Mariano Ponce, the organization 's secretary and Marcelo del Pilar.

Objective of the Propaganda Movement

Members of the Propaganda Movement were called propagandists or reformists. They worked inside and outside the Philippines. Their objectives were to seek: ▪ Recognition of the Philippines as a province of Spain
▪ Equal status for both Filipinos and Spaniards
▪ Philippine representation in the Spanish Cortes
▪ Secularization of Philippine parishes.
▪ Recognition of human rights The Propaganda Movement never asked for Philippine independence because its members believed that once Spain realized the pitiful state of the country, the Spaniards would implement the changes the Filipinos were seeking.

Objective of the Katipunan(KKK)
▪ The political goal was to completely separate the Philippines from Spain after declaring the country’s independence.
▪ The moral goal was to teach the Filipinos good manners, cleanliness, hygiene, fine morals, and how to guard themselves against religious fanaticism.
▪ The civic goal was to encourage Filipinos to help themselves and to defend the poor oppressed.
Achievements
The crowning achievement of the Katipunan-Magdiwang was the establishment of the first Philippine Republic. The Philippine Republic, more commonly known as the First Philippine Republic or the Malolos Republic was a short-lived nascent revolutionary government in the Philippines. It was formally established with the proclamation of the Malolos Constitution on January 23, 1899 in Malolos, Bulacan, and endured until the capture and surrender of Emilio Aguinaldo to the American forces on March 23, 1901 in Palanan, Isabela, which effectively dissolved the First Republic.

Leaders:

The Leaders of the Katipunan:

▪ Deodato Arellano -Supremo
▪ Ladislao Diwa -Fiscal
▪ Teodora Plata -Secretary
▪ Valentine Diaz -treasurer
▪ Andres Bonifacio -controller

First and Second Phase Rise and Fall
The First Phase Of The Philippine Revolution
The first phase of the Philippine Revolution is also called the Filipino-Spanish War.It began with the Cry of Pugadlawin and ended with the Pact of Biak-na-bato.Andres Bonifacio led the revolution,thus he was called the "Father of the Philippine Revolution." With his death,Emilio Aguinaldo took over the leadership of the revolution.

The Philippine-American War (1899-1902) is referred to as the second phase of the Philippine Revolution. This period actually began after Aguinaldo returned to the Philippines from Hong Kong on may 19, 1898, on board an American cutter from the fleet of Admiral George Dewey, who on May 1, 1898, had defeated the Spanish forces in the Battle of Manila Bay. The United States had declared war on Spain (over Cuba) in April 1898 and Dewey was sent to Manila to destroy the Spanish navy. The initial enthusiasm for American support of the Revolution against Spain turned increasingly sour as the Filipino revolutionaries became convinced that the United States was preparing to take over sovereignty over the Philippines from Spain

    After its defeat in the Spanish-American War of 1898, Spain ceded its longstanding colony of the Philippines to the United States in the Treaty of Paris. On February 4, 1899, just two days before the U.S. Senate ratified the treaty, fighting broke out between American forces and Filipino nationalists led by Emilio Aguinaldo who sought independence rather than a change in colonial rulers. The ensuing Philippine-American War lasted three years and resulted in the death of over 4,200 American and over 20,000 Filipino combatants. As many as 200,000 Filipino civilians died from violence, famine, and disease. The decision by U.S. policymakers to annex the Philippines was not without domestic controversy. Americans who advocated annexation evinced a variety of motivations: desire for commercial opportunities in Asia, concern that the Filipinos were incapable of self-rule, and fear that if the United States did not take control of the islands, another power (such as Germany or Japan) might do so. Meanwhile, American opposition to U.S. colonial rule of the Philippines came in many forms, ranging from those who thought it morally wrong for the United States to be engaged in colonialism, to those who feared that annexation might eventually permit the non-white Filipinos to have a role in American national government. Others were wholly unconcerned about the moral or racial implications of imperialism and sought only to oppose the policies of President William McKinley’s administration.…

    In the early years of colonization from the English, French, and Spanish into the American continent, it is the Spanish who made the largest initial impact. In the beginning Spaniards looked to the New World as an area for empire building (Calloway, 2012). Missions were to convert/conform the indigenous population to Christianity and servitude to the Spanish empire, while increasing imports and exports of trade goods that would increase the power and wealth of the Spanish Monarchy. As time went by the warmongering, and greed stricken Spaniards looked more towards total conquest and servitude of the local populace and continued expeditions’ for wealth and fame. They relied on a combination of military superiority, occasional diplomacy, luck — and their greatest ally, disease (Walbert 2007).…

    Although they were not the first Europeans in the Philippines, the first well documented arrival of western Europeans in the archipelago was the Spanish expedition led by Portuguese Ferdinand Magellan, which first sighted the mountains of Samar at dawn on 16 March 1521 (Spanish calendar), making landfall the following day at the small, uninhabited island of Homonhon at the mouth of the Leyte Gulf.[1] Magellan had abandoned his Portuguese citizenship and became a Spanish subject prior to his contract with Spain. On Easter Sunday, 31 March 1521 (Spanish calendar), at Masao, Butuan, (now in Agusan Del Norte), he solemnly planted a cross on the summit of a hill overlooking the sea and claimed possession of the islands he had seen for Spain, naming them Archipelago of Saint Lazarus.[2]…
