Rose Fresh FausTalks with Rapa Lopa: “Is the Filipino still worth dying for?”
Forty-eight years after the declaration of Martial Law, and 34 years after EDSA revolution, are you happy where our country is right now? Join me in this conversation with Rapa Lopa, the president of the Ninoy and Cory Aquino Foundation, whose mission is to build a society of Filipinos grounded on the transformative values of self-sacrifice and self-transcendence in service of humanity. He wrote the book “To Love Another Day: The Memoirs of Cory Aquino.”
My personal invitation to you goes beyond watching this video or listening to the podcast. It extends to answering the question “Is the Filipino still worth dying for?” and in so doing, to discern your own role in all that’s happening around us now, no matter how big or small it is.
