Social Values from the Propaganda Movement for Current Application:

The Propaganda Movement, which sought political reforms and advocated

for Filipino rights during the late 19th century, offers several social values that
remain relevant today:

• Nationalism: The movement's strong sense of national identity and

pride can inspire individuals today to prioritize the welfare and progress
of their country.
• Justice and Equality: The call for equal rights, representation, and justice
resonates with contemporary issues related to social equality, human
rights, and inclusivity.
• Activism and Advocacy: The spirit of activism displayed by the
propagandists can encourage people to stand up for causes they
believe in, engaging in peaceful advocacy for social change.
• Critical Thinking: The intellectual discourse and promotion of
enlightenment fostered by the movement can inspire critical thinking
and informed decision-making in today's complex world.
• Collaboration and Solidarity: The collaborative efforts of the
propagandists highlight the importance of unity and solidarity in
achieving shared goals, serving as a reminder for current movements
and initiatives.

Choice Between KKK and Cuerpo de Compromisarios:

I would choose the KKK (Katipunan). The Katipunan pursued armed resistance
against Spanish colonial rule, advocating for complete independence.
Choosing the KKK would signify a commitment to more radical and direct
action, willing to take risks for the sake of a sovereign nation.
