The People Power Revolution, also known as the EDSA Revolution or February Revolution, was a series of popular demonstrations in the Philippines from February 22 to 25, 1986. It was a nonviolent campaign of civil resistance against regime violence and electoral fraud, leading to the departure of Ferdinand Marcos and the end of his 20-year dictatorship. Hundreds of thousands of people filled up Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA) facing northbound towards the Boni Serrano Avenue–EDSA intersection.The Yellow Revolution was a symbol of protest following the assassination of Filipino senator Benigno "Ninoy" Aquino, Jr. in August 1983. It was widely seen as a victory of the people against two decades of presidential rule by President Marcos, and made news headlines as "the revolution that surprised the world". The majority of the demonstrations took place on Epifanio de los Santos Avenue, more commonly known by its acronym EDSA, in Metro Manila from February 22 to 25, 1986. The protests, fueled by the resistance and opposition after years of governance by President Marcos and his cronies, ended with the ruler, his family, and some of their supporters fleeing to exile in Hawaii; and Ninoy Aquino's widow, Corazon Aquino, inaugurated as the eleventh President of the Philippines.

"POEM FOR PERIOD OF ACTIVISM"

The phase of activism began in 1970–1972,

The declaration of martial law in 1972,

Where the young person utterly rebelled,

Campus publications displayed disobedient feelings.

They criticized the flaws in politics and society,

The poor's aspirations and demise,

As someone who witnessed little ladies being slaughtered like pigs,

While being violated by rapacious business people, and politicians.

The disregard for the underprivileged peaked,

Hands that are visibly sweaty,
