Native boats on the run Aguinaldo’s navy
“27 feet. A splendid scene, showing a large number of curious Filipino boats being worked on the Pasig River near Manila by natives. The picture is unusually fine photographically” –American Mutoscope & Biograph picture catalogue.
Early motion pictures and the Copyright catalog indicate that the subject of this film is the Spanish-American War, but the film was taken in 1900, after the end of the war (August 1898). The title appears to be a facetious reference to Emilio Aguinaldo, who led Philippine forces against the United States during the Philippine American War (1899-1902). No naval ships are depicted and Aguinaldo does not appear in the film.

This report discusses the many notable achievements of the BARMM government during its first year while cautioning that these accomplishments are not irreversible, and that the BARMM will need international support—including from the United States—to confront future challenges.

Martin Luther King, Jr.
Martin Luther King Jr. (born Michael King Jr.; January 15, 1929 – April 4, 1968) was an American Baptist minister, activist, and political philosopher who was one of the most prominent leaders in the civil rights movement from 1955 until his assassination in 1968. A Black church leader and a son of early civil rights activist and minister Martin Luther King Sr., King advanced civil rights for people of color in the United States through nonviolence and civil disobedience. Inspired by his Christian beliefs and the nonviolent activism of Mahatma Gandhi, he led targeted, nonviolent resistance against Jim Crow law and other forms of discrimination in the United States.
