Yesterday, Renacimiento Manila (RM) held their general assembly at the Linangan Gallery of the Constantino Foundation. RM is a heritage advocacy group comprised of young Filipinos determined to protect our nation’s legacy, propagate awareness of the colorful past in our natural and built urban environment, and promote historical thinking. They conduct some of the most compelling, interactive, and informative tours in Manila today and they run campaigns as well to care for historic structures, native trees and plants, and the memory of our people’s patrimony.
They are truly radical, if we go by the root of that word – radix, which means just that, root. Our country might be a mess right now thanks to Senateflix blowhards. But the work RM does is one among many sources of hope. Their work elevates what is important in our history, and they help tell the story of who we are and where we came from. What makes them beautiful is because of who their members are as individuals and what they do as a group.
If you’re looking for the most interesting kind of tours for your family, friends, or offices – do yourselves a favor. Reach out to Renacimiento Manila. You’re welcome!
