Summary: In the thirty years since the "People's Power Revolution" of 1986. there is still no consensus on what EDSA was and what it means. Prominent participants and members of the Church, the military, the business community, the middle classes, and even the U.S. State Department have claimed credit for the February event. This anthology gathers together the reminiscences and reflections of activists, academics, and artists, focusing not only on those who took part in the event, but also on those who came of age in the wake of EDSA. The act of remembering becomes an occasion for rethinking and reassessing the contested legacy of EDSA and its continuing implications and for present and future generations of Filipinos.
