These are the stories that we must be create in a movie like S. Korea, China, Japan, Thailand etc did. It would be amazing if we have this pre-colonial movies in MMFF.

A really good suggestions I am willing to spent more money to educate our young once of our true history.❤❤❤

Thank you for your content. What I appreciate about Alamat is the active effort to be custodians of the culture by using modern means to promote culture and history (as opposed to hiding our culture and history to show the world how modern the PH is). And I know they inspire a lot of younger Filipinos and FilAms to learn history but they have also inspired me, a GenXer. Salamat 🫶🏽

Ang ganda talaga ng genre ng edutainment kase very entertaining na, marami pang natututunan. Kaya bet na bet ko talaga yung alamat at yung music and advocacy nila. Nung napanuod ko yung mv hinihintay ko rin na gumawa ka ng reaction breakdown video. Inspiring talaga nitong release nila. Very raw yung pagkagawa yet napapakita ng maayos yung overall message. Napansin nyo rin po ba yung inspiration ng outfits nila? Mayroong inspired by The Battle of Mactan(Mo and Alas), The Spanish Colonization(Tomas and Taneo), at ng Treaty of Paris(Jao and R-Ji). Also, yung lantaka na paputok pala ay actual weapon pala na ginagamit dati? Ang amazing naman non, ang advanced din nung mga weapons nila noon. And also nung kinukwento mo na yung abduction ng Prince of Luzon, parang ang gandang gawan ng movie or series about sa mga royal families ng southeast asia noon. Marami siguro silang interesting experiences and stories na mala serye, like yung mga nagawa mo nang videos sa love stories ng mga sultan at princesses. Makikita pa dito how very connected yung southeast asia. Thank you kuya kirby for giving us videos like this!

Ms Yee has to watch their latest performance in Rappler Dagundong, she's going to love Tomas more for sure 😁

This is hands down the most interesting video I've seen in a looong time. I'm such a history junkie, esp about the Philippines, but many of my history teachers ruined my experience growing up. And I always knew there was something shady about these Western colonizers. But in our books, they were painted as heroes and saviors. Ick. Kirby, you're the coolest professor I never had, and Yee is the cutest student ever. I love her giggles, she'd be a cool seatmate lol! Hey, not having notes shows that you're a genius. Thank you, Professor, for putting out content like this. You're a cultural gem. Love the Southeast asian trade history. I didn't know Battle of Manila was a mock war! Omg I'm shocked at this point. So, thank you Professor, for putting this content out so kids of the next generation will learn from this. I'm fired up angry, but happy at the same time, for finding out the dark truth behind Ph history. I guess this is a step closer to the healing of our people. 🙏🏼✨

Watch Alamat Kasmala MV (and Sir Kirby's reaction to it) though the song story is not directly goes along with the MV but the MV is packed showed a genius artful representation of racism and US-Phl colonial history.

Thank you! I really love Alamat group and became a Magiliw after watching Kasmala a few months ago. It's easily one of my favourite songs. It's a fun history course 😊@@julianbonues3495

Im a big fan of Tomas as well. He's so cute but mostly i love his voice, very soulful and soft, and smooth like butter, lol! but can be powerful as well. He is my bias and the other one is Mo.

The SEA lineage intermarriage actually makes sense, as evidenced by our shared features. It's amazing that history is just interconnected stories depending on whose point of view. That's why it's always interesting to read or know those perspectives. Props to you Sir Kirby for keeping your lineage story. It's always an honor to know those stories, especially those directly passed down from generations. You'll get it, Sir Kirby, you're a Batikang Historian. Salamat

I just caught a typo! It should say *Precolonial Walled City of Manila, not "Cioty" 😅😅😅

I have been waiting for this! Thank you Sir Kirby! I always love your reactions towards our 6inoos!

I really liked the Dagundong video and the song. I loved the costumes Alamat had in the video. The lyrics feel very relevant.

You guys are an adorable couple! Yee’s intro of this video is so relatable 😂 and of course, thanks Kirby for the historical breakdown. I knew what the MV is about prior to this vid, but I loved hearing the details I didn’t know about (such as the tactics of war from the native people, and religious wars against the Protestants).

I think even though the GomBurZa was just mentioned in passing, their martyrdom is a key event that gave rise to a nationalistic sentiment of the Filipinos of that time. The priests directly influenced notable figures such as the brothers Jose and Paciano Rizal, and the later members of the Propaganda Movement, which in turn also influenced the Revolution of 1896. The Filipino clergy rose up so that Rizal, Bonifacio, and their contemporaries could fight back. Many thanks for the insightful discussions in this video. I still learned some new stuff despite having studied Philippine history in school. ALAMAT definitely keeps setting the bar high for PPOP. Cheers!

Cutest historian couple! Reaction and analysis as always on point . That's an amazing analogy and additional info. More historical rv. Mabuhay🥰

on my first watch, I thought of the MV as "plain", but after reading the analysis of Magiliws in twt, I got to appreciate the MV more!!! I learned A LOT from its layers and references, and more layers of the MV were exposed from your reaction video, thank you so much!!!

Salamat din 🤎

I've been watching too many boran lakorns (historical thai drama series) lagi na lang akong naiinggit sa richness ng culture ng history nila. Alam ko mayaman din tayo sa kultura before the conquistadores came pero naiiyak ako na wala tayong kasing daming records of the past like them. Gusto ko din ng mga historical dramas dito sa atin na hindi lang Spanish era. Amaya was really a treasure. Sana may gumawa ulit ng epic drama involving the kingdoms of Luzones, Sulu, at Brunei during their kingdom's heyday.

As always, your breakdowns are very thoughtful & informational.. Thank you so much for generously sharing your knowledge.. However, I just want to put it out there that I, personally, don't agree about your thoughts about the China of today.. When you said that that's the first thing you thought of when you got to that line in the lyrics, it was the same for me, which is why I've had reservations about that particular line in the song.. But from what I understand, Thyro, the composer, wrote the song just to tell history from way back, which allowed me to receive this song with less reservation.. Regardless of this matter, I'll always be appreciative of your channel & everyone behind Alamat that are bringing to light these less known information about PH history & culture.. Salute!

Pre-colonial history has always been fascinating to me. Thank you for the lessons. And kudos to the Alamat team too.

I learned so much, I subscribed

thanks for this, this is very informative. More power to you guys. Thank u so much

Hello Datu Kirby, I appreciate the meticulous effort and dedication that you have put into educating Filipinos in the Philippines and in the diaspora, about the history and culture. I learn a lot from your video lectures. But I would like to bring your attention to something pretty urgent. Even though Filipinos are various shades of brown, those who are on the darker side of the brown spectrum are not seen in society as Brown in the Philippines but as Black. At first I wondered if I was being too paranoid or conflating racist treatment with attitudes towards the poor, but seeing "dark", "black", "maitim", "chaka", "pangit" and even "anak ng putik" and "nog nog" hurled at not just indigenous Agta communities but at regular dark Filipinos more and more often online has got me quite concerned. I'm not sure what Mo's heritage is, but he's seen as Blasian. Many of us are also seen as Blasian even if we don't have a Black parent from the U.S., Africa, or the Caribbean. So even if we're under the racial label of Brown, we don't get a Brown experience in the Philippines, but a Black one. And you know the situation of the many Agta communities in the Philippines regarding being displaced from their home territories. Even though we who are seen as Blasians aren't the majority of the population, and we speak Filipino majority languages and not indigenous cultural communities languages, we are still here. We endured the Americans slinging the n-word at us during the revolution, we too fought the amerikano hanggang sa mamatay. Antonio Luna could not hide his features he inherited from his Agta grandparent. He himself was a darker color and had curly hair but in photos the flashbulb made him look lighter and in one photo he had straightened his hair. Captain Janolino, who in his only known photo looked very white European, murdered Antonio Luna. And Captain Janolino was there with all his men so one could even say that Antonio Luna was the victim of a lynch mob. It is good that you advocate for solidarity between Black people in the U.S. and Brown people in the Philippines and in the Diaspora but when I see a Black person hurt or killed, or when I see a Blasian or Blasian person hurt or killed, I don't feel outrage in solidarity, I feel outrage because I feel Black people everywhere are my kinsman. I don't feel Black sometimes. But I definitely don't feel Asian, even among Southeast Asians. You see the diversity of Filipino languages, cultures and experiences. Please see the maitim sa Pilipinas at mula sa Pilipinas and know that we're still here.

2 questions, how reliable are your sources 2nd did Philippines Hero did really fight for the people or they all fought for greed and power?

Pretty much you'll get these history lessons if you take Philippine History and other higher history courses in college. And if you have a good instructors/Professors. Dahil wala tayo masyado records noong panahong yun, we mostly rely on artifacts, some oral history and the records of the Kingdoms around us na we interacted with Like we're in the records of Ayutthaya, of Chinese traders, of Ibn Battuta, of the early Spanish friars, etc. Which Philippine Hero? Because Kalipulaku has a different motivation fighting the conquistadores vs Bonifacio who came centuries laters. I mean basically, it's to fight off the colonizers but you can kinda understand how their situations were different then.
