present time or so called millennial era, history does not give a big impact to millennial

Conceptual literature
According to Alip (1961) Rizal has always been known as a well-traveled man.
He went to foreign lands to study, work, and learn about the different cultures the world
has to offer. In his extensive travels, he picked up a few things from the people and the
values that he immersed himself in. He went around instilling in himself the principles of
a true renaissance man. He educated himself on a wide variety of topics, spanning from
the arts, medicine, and even military tactics though he was still a big purveyor of peace.
Laubach (1936) Uncle Tom’s Cabin was probably the most prominent book that
Rizal has read which eventually inspired him to write his greatest work, Noli Me
Tangere. The author, Harriet Beecher Stowe, mostly focused on the slavery problem in
the south during the mid to late 19th century. It is a book on anti-slavery and focuses on
the life of titular character Uncle Tom as he tries to survive life as a slave during the pre-
civil war era. The whole of the story opened Rizal’s eyes to the horrors and evils of
slavery and oppression. He even approached his fellow intelligentsia about writing a
book that could possibly affect the Philippines just as Uncle Tom’s Cabin affected the

together with other reformists, for reforms, specifically, equal rights, assimilation, and
representation in the Spanish government. The efforts of the propagandists were not
totally wasted.

and abuses experienced by the Filipinos from the Spanish administration including the

action is best, although he does not allow that accepting the status is a viable option—
Filipinos should either work to reform the system through peaceful means or take back

away from Filipinos and instilled in them a shame and powerlessness that keeps them
Constantino (1970) Sadly, one colonizer was replaced with another—the United
States and then Japan colonized the country until the Philippines finally earned
independence in 1946.
Tejano (2011) elaborated in his study that if Filipinos were to aim for a better
nation, it is important to have a more in-depth study of Jose Rizal’s political ideologies.

Philippines to be a free, independent nation. In the end, Rizal refuses Valenzuela’s offer.
According to Quibuyen (1996) when Rizal chose to die in martyrdom in 1896, the
opposition of the 1896 revolution led by Andres Bonifacio. This, he said, causes a
