The main road of the capital was crowded with people during the 1986 EDSA People Power Revolution.
However, their movement's spirit didn't stay isolated to Manila's streets. Pockets of discontent
appeared all over the country, causing controversy in local communities and bringing the country
together in its quest for independence. Cebuanos and Davaoenos congregated in their respective plazas,
lining the streets with protest signs and chanting the revolution's anthems. All were led by the voice of
Radio Veritas, the only station whose commitment to the truth was instrumental in overthrowing the
government. Many people regarded this station as the lighthouse. Without a doubt, the Veritas
broadcasts were responsible for People Power catching fire in other parts of the country.

The 1986 People Power Revolution's 32nd anniversary is being commemorated this year. Filipinos
displayed remarkable bravery and stood together against a dictator during these historic four days in
February.
