This video is about a war you probably don’t know much about. If you’re an American, you likely didn’t hear much about it in American history class, and that’s likely because it’s a war that the American government has preferred you just…uh…not remember. You see, this war makes the United States look bad. Very bad, as a matter of fact. It’s a war that some historians say killed as many as one million people. A war in which American soldiers committed all kinds of atrocities, including pillage, torture, rape, and the massacre of civilians. A war of imperialism, in which the United States wanted to control the Philippines to exploit its resources and use it to expand trade throughout Asia.
The Philippine-American War was objectively a disaster for everyone involved.
It was a painful reminder that imperialism often just leads to the horrible subjugation of a people. In fact, this war single handedly turned Americans against imperialism, and even got the once staunch imperialist Teddy Roosevelt questioning himself. The war highlighted the importance of respecting the sovereignty of other nations. It also exposed the terrible racism toward Filipinos. American soldiers done messed up with their treatment of them.
