Lesson Discussion:

The Katipunan is born


Andres Bonifacio was also a member of La Liga Filipina, although he soon lost hope in gaining
reforms though peaceful means. This feeling was especially heightened when Jose Rizal was exiled
to Dapitan. Bonifacio became convinced that the only way the Philippines could gain independence
was through a revolution.
Bonifacio then founded the “Katastaasang Kagalanggalangang Katipuanan ng mga Anak ng Bayan”
(KKK) on July 7, 1892 in a house on Azcarraga street (now Claro M. Recto), in Tondo Manila.

The Katipunan had colorful beginnings. As a symbol of the member’s loyalty, they performed the
solemn rite of sanduguan (blood compact), wherein each one signed his name with his own blood..
The members agreed to recruit more people using the “triangle system” of enlistment. Each original
member would recruit tow new members who were not related to each other. Each new member
would do the same thing, and so on down the line. Members were also asked to contribute one Real
(about 25 centavos) each month in order to raise funds for the association.
The KKK members agreed on
▪ The political goal was to completely separate the Philippines from Spain after declaring the country’s
independence.
▪ The moral goal was to teach the Filipinos good manners, cleanliness, hygiene, fine morals, and how
to guard themselves against religious fanaticism..
▪ The civic goal was to encourage Filipinos to help themselves and to defend the poor oppressed .

The Katipunan was established on July 7, 1896, after Jose Rizal, one of the leaders of the Propaganda
Movement and also a founder of La Liga Filipina, who was also a member of Andres Bonifacio. La Liga consists
of middle class intellectuals or ilustrados that promote peaceful reform. The Spanish-dominated regime in La
Liga has confirmed that Andres Bonifacio is no longer a peaceful reform under Spanish control. It was built in a
house in Azcarraga Street (now Abenida Claro M. Recto) in Tondo, Manila. Because of a secret organization, its
affiliates are subject to full secrecy and are expected to comply with the rules of the organization. Those who
wish to join the organization are invited to join the ceremony to become a full member. At first, only Filipino
men were welcomed, but later they also made women. The Katipunan has its own newspaper, called Freedom
that had its first and last publication in March 1896. The revolutionary ideas and revolutionary activities
emerge, and some of its popular members enrich Philippine literature. In planning the revolution, Bonifacio
communicated to Rizal for his full support of the Katipunan in exchange for the promise of rescuing Rizal from
torture. In May 1896, a delegation was sent to the Japanese Emperor to raise funds and weapons. The
Katipunan was disclosed to the Spanish government when a member Teodoro Patiño admitted to his sister
about the illegal activities of the Katipunan, and later into the head of Ampatuan Mandaluyong. Seven years
after the discovery of the Spaniards in the Katipunan, Bonifacio and his crew ripped their cedula to the
Pyramid of the Pugadlawin, which began the Philippine Revolution.
