The Cry of Balintawak or Pugad Lawin
Processing Your Knowledge:
1. How can you live out the spirit of nationalism in these changing times?
Firstly, is to stand proud for being a Filipino second is by patronizing and supporting
our own products third is by preserving the Filipino culture and lastly is by respecting
everyone and valuing the traditions we have.
Pio Valenzuela had several Cry versions. Only after they have been compared and reconciled
with the other accounts can we determine what happened.
Was there a meeting at Pugad Lawin on August 23, 1896, following the meeting at Apolonio
Samson's home in Hong Kong? Were the cedulas ripped in Kangkong or Pugad Lawin?
Valenzuela stated before the Olive Court, which was charged with investigating persons
involved in the rebellion, in September 1896, that Katipunan meetings began on Sunday.
Valenzuela claimed in 1911 that the Katipunan began meeting on August 22, while the Cry took
place on August 23 at Apolonio Samson's house in Balintawak.
Valenzuela claimed that the Cry occurred on August 24, 1928, at the house of Tandang Sora
(Melchora Aquino) in Pugad Lawin, which he now owns near Pasong Tamo Road. A photograph
of Bonifacio's widow, Gregoria de Jesus, and Katipunan members Valenzuela, Briccio Brigido
Pantas, Alfonso, and Ciprio Pacheco, published in La Opinion in 1928 and 1930, was captioned
both times as having been taken at the site of the Cry on August 24, 1896, at the house of
Tandang Sora on Pasong Tamo Road.
Valenzuela, Pantas, and Pacheco declared in 1935 that "na hindi sa Balintawak nangyari ang
unang sigaw ng paghihimagsik na kinalalagian ng bantayog, kung di sa pook na kilala sa tawag
na Pugad Lawin."
The precise location of Pugad Lawin was identified in 1940 by a research team of the
Philippines Historical Committee (a forerunner of the National Historical Institute or NHI), which
included Pio Valenzuela, as part of sitio Gulod, Banlat, Kalookan City. The location of the Cry
was Tandang Sora's, not Juan Ramos', according to the NHI's Minutes of the Katipunan in 1964,
and the date was August 23.
According to Valenzuela's memoirs (1964, 1978), the Cry occurred on August 23 at Juan Ramos'
house in Pugad Lawin. The NHI was influenced by Valenzuela's memoirs. Following the NHI's
approval, President Diosdado Macapagal ordered that the Cry be celebrated on August 23,
1963, and that Pugad Lawin be designated as the site.
