Answer: 5 Rizalian examples for today's Filipinos

1. BE PROGRESSIVE. My partner in the Facebook live show Dulowtard History Live, Prof. Van Ybiernas, argued that what Rizal and the propagandists did against the Spaniard was, in a sense, trolling.  Trolling is used by the weak to irritate the powerful.  In fact they were so trolled by Rizal's Padre Damaso, Salvi and Doña Victorina that they eventually killed him.  Others can call this activism, or just being plain progressive.  Tell people the ills of society so progress can be achieved.  But take note that Rizal exposed the ills of society and attacked those that make it worse, but did not antagonize fellow Filipinos, even if he was also telling them where they’d gone wrong.

2. THINK CRITICALLY. Rizal and the Propagandists were called Ilustrados not just for being educated but because they are believers of the Enlightenment Philosophy.  They did not just accept things as they are, they began questioning the inequality in the status quo.  They did not wait for miracles to happen but advocated scientific and reasonable approaches in solving problems.  In short:  use your coconut.  Fanaticism and blind faith can be the unbecoming of a Nation.

3. EDUCATE YOURSELF. To be honest, Rizal was not democratic in his politics although he is a liberal by philosophy.  To become a worthy citizen of the Nation, he believed, one should be educated.  But what was Rizal's kind of education? Quibuyen talked about Rizal's progressive education when he taught in Dapitan, a non-traditional approach which is not based on a canned standard curriculum but is anchored on developing the strengths of each student.  

4. DEVELOP YOUR TALENTS. Why were the propagandists multi-talented? Rizal was considered a "renaissance man" just like Leonardo da Vinci because he was able to do things both in the sciences and the humanities, but he was not the only one.  General Antonio Luna was a pharmacist and a chemist, Juan Luna was a sailor and a painter, and so on.  One must understand that during the time of our ancestors, many Spaniards thought lowly of Filipinos. The propagandists, by being multi-talented, were actually proving a point about Filipinos being their own people, their own Nation.  By the product of their talents, they were able to make the people feel united in their achievements and their progressive and educated thoughts. Juan Luna showed the colonizers that we are outstanding through the Spoliarium.  Rizal demonstrated in his writings, especially the Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo, our common misfortune under colonialism. There was no such town as San Diego, but being nowhere, it was everywhere.  Padre Salvi, Sisa, Doña Victorina and others are reflections of realities of Philippine life under colonialism.  These novels and portrayals of Philippine society showed us that realizing our common problems should unite us as a Nation.

 

5. MAKE A DIFFERENCE. It is not enough to be educated ourselves and to develop our talents.  Rizal proved in Dapitan that if one decides to, an individual can change the lives of other people.  Quibuyen wrote that aside from "progressive education" Rizal's other legacy for the 21st century should be "social entrepreneurship."  When the Spaniards exiled Rizal to Dapitan, the goal was to discourage him in doing his thing by bringing him to the "edge of the earth". But even if he was only one person, a "one man NGO," he tried to change the lives of the people by instilling to the people of that sleepy town a sense of industry and pride in work.  He taught them the latest technologies in agriculture, fishing, and even collected them into a cooperative.  When he won the lottery, he bought land so he could be productive.  Rizal had money in the process, but he did not forget to make a difference as well to people's lives that when he left after four years, people were actually crying because Rizal significantly changed the way they looked at their world.
