BBA Management – III Hist 52 – G July 4‚ 1946: True Philippine Independence Day (http://www.bibingka.com/phg/misc/july4.htm) A column written in the year 1996 by a "media advocate and founder of the Media Breakfast Club (MBC)" – Bobby Reyes. First of all‚ I would like to question on how he could confidently and strongly accuse us Filipinos‚ for assuming June 12‚ 1898 as our Philippine Independence Day. When in fact in his column‚ he never had mentioned even a single source to make

A popcorn flick like Independence Day (1996) is never examined deeply‚ it’s a silly sci-fi blockbuster‚ what else could the film have going on? But there is actually many different ways to examine the film‚ including a feminist reading. Examining a film like this from a feminist perspective is fascinating stuff‚ but before we dive headlong in‚ what is feminist film theory all about anyway? Feminist film theory is a way to examine how a film portrays women‚ are they tough/independent or are they a

Is Cinco de Mayo really the Mexican Independence Day? While most people mistake Cinco de Mayo for the day that Mexico gained their independence‚ Cinco de Mayo- the fifth of May- is actually celebrated because on that day the Mexican army claimed a victory over the French army in 1862 at the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican War. Mexico actually gained their independence on September 16‚ 1810‚ 50 years before the Battle of Puebla occurred. The Franco-Mexican War began in late 1861; which

This movie examines what might happen if one day a third of the population of the state of California just wasn’t there anymore. As the film progresses we learn that the section of the population that has disappeared is connected by the one fact that they all seem to be of Hispanic heritage. California is isolated from the

more complex than most think. Most think of the stereotypical ideas of Mexicans‚ the gun-and-drug-crazy men with weird hats and loud guitar and maracas music. However‚ that is most certainly not the case. The culture of Mexico is very enriched and wild‚ filled with history and energy. It is vast and diverse‚ and so much more than violent stereotypes. Mexico has different holidays than other countries. Mexico has an Independence Day on September 16‚ with fireworks and parades and re-enactments of “El

Section #1 1. The first point I noticed in this movie was that when the Mexicans first disappeared people seemed to be happy and excited that they were finally gone for good‚ or at least that’s how it was originally supposed to be‚ and at the same moment of the disappearance‚ a mysterious fog rose up around the state of California. 2. Another point was that once everyone in California could not do simple tasks‚ because the Mexicans did everything for them‚ they started until become worrisome and frantic
