Flags of The Philippine Revolution - Modern Revival

Modern Revival

A flag reminiscent of the Katipunan flags of the past was used by a breakaway faction of army officers calling themselves Bagong Katipuneros, but labeled the Magdalo Group by the press. These officers mutinied against the government of Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo at the behest of Senator Gregorio Honasan and once again led by Senator Antonio Trillanes IV (see Oakwood mutiny and Manila Peninsula mutiny).

Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or revival:

    “Much of modern art is devoted to lowering the threshold of what is terrible. By getting us used to what, formerly, we could not bear to see or hear, because it was too shocking, painful, or embarrassing, art changes morals.”
    —Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    “I do not think a revival of business will be greatly postponed by [Samuel J.] Tilden’s election. Business prosperity does not, in my judgment, depend on government so much as men commonly think.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
