Rizal
Jose Rizal became the Philippine national hero because he fought for freedom
in a silent but powerful way. He expressed his love for the Philippines through
his novels, essays and articles rather than through the use of force or
aggression. Instead he used his writings to open the eyes of the Filipinos.
When he studied in Manila at the Jesuit Ateneo Municipal school, he changed
his name to “Jose Rizal” because his brother, Paciano Mercado, was wanted by
the colonial authorities for being an associate of the martyred priest, Fr. He
wanted to become an eye specialist in order to cure her mother from an eye
ailment.
