What is the Moro’s place in Philippine history?
We scan several historical periods to situate Moro identity and their historical experience within the Philippine polity by interrogating the place they occupied in the writing of Philippine history. Our conversation revealed that while the historical injustices they suffered since the seat of government was left to the Christian majority, it wasn't until the time of Marcos that the flames of discontent and revolt were stoked. Now that Muslim Mindanao is transforming into the Bangsamoro, we must do what we can to revisit the place of the Moro in our historical narrative and realize that they are, indeed, part of Philippine society.
