LITERATURE UNDER THE US COLONIALISM

The American Regime (1898-1941)

The Filipino Revolutionists won against the Spaniards who colonized us for more than 300 years. Our
flag was hoisted on June 12, 1898 as a symbol of our independence. Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo was elected
the first President of the Philippine Republic but this was short- lived

The peace movements started as early as 1900. Many Filipinos started writing again and the nationalism
of the people remained undaunted.
