    Historical Background
    The “Cry of Pugad Lawin” was an event that officially marked the start of the
    Philippine Revolution against Spain. The revolt later grew in strength and spread to 8
    provinces including Manila, Bulacan, Cavite, Pampanga, Tarlac, Laguna, Batangas, and
    Nueva Ecija — which were eventually represented by the eight rays of the sun in the
    present Filipino flag.
    The Cry of Balintawak occurred on August 26, 1896. The Cry, defined as that turning
    point when the Filipinos finally refused Spanish colonial dominion over the Philippine
    Islands. With tears in their eyes, the people as one man, pulled out their cedulas and
    tore them into pieces.

    The Philippine Revolution against over 300 years of Spanish rule began with Andrés
    Bonifacio, leader of the Katipunan, a secret revolutionary society that sought
    independence for the Philippines from Spanish colonial rule.

    In August 1896, in the sitio of Pugad Lawin in Balintawak, now part of Quezon City, the
    Katipuneros led by Andrés Bonifacio rose up in revolt by tearing up their “cedulas”
    which became a sign of enslavement of the Filipinos. This event called the “Cry of
    Pugad Lawin,” officially regarded as the start of the Philippine Revolution against Spain
    with the use of violence and arms.

    Introduction

    The Filipino people called for uprisings against the Spanish colonial government 123 ye
    ars ago. Their main motivation was to put an end to colonialism and establish democrac
    y so that they could begin a new life as independent individuals. When Andres Bonifacio 
    and several other Katipuneros tore their cedulas ripped protest Spanish colonization, thi
    s period in Philippine history is known as the "Cry of Rebellion." It was followed by a nu
    mber of ferocious encounters between Spanish muskets and Filipino bolos and spears. 
    Tearing the cedula, a piece of paper that represents the oppression of the Spanish, mar
    ks the beginning of our struggle for freedom and independence. Its application was intro
    duced to us by Spaniards, so it
    has been in use since the 19th century's Spanish era. Northeast of Manila, in August 18
    96, the Philippines experienced the Cry of Rebellion. Given the month and year, there w
    as much discussion about the exact day that it actually occurred. The suggested dates r
    anged from August 23 to 26. There are two key locations where it happened that have b
    een named as the "Cry of Balintawak" and the "Cry of Pugad Lawin”.
