Why was Jose' Rizal proclaimed as the Philippine's National Hero?? by the Americans?

Answer 1

According to my Marxist professors, he was chosen by the capitalist enemy to staunch any rural revolution that the countryside was concocting, The pen is mightier that the sword and is certainly less bloody. My professors purported that if the Filipinos had Andres Bonifacio instead, we would have been freed from the grasp of colonialism.
According to others, Rizal died a proper martyr's death, shot at, in public, very humiliating, twas the least the americans can do.
He was also an intellectual figure, preferred to fight using his brain than brawns.

Answer 3

José Protacio Mercado Rizal y Alonzo Realonda (June 19, 1861 – December 30, 1896), known as Jose Rizal, was a Filipino polymath and nationalist and the most prominent advocate for reforms in the Philippines during Spanish colonial era and its eventual independence from the Spanish Empire. He is considered a national hero of the Philippines and the anniversary of Rizal's death is commemorated as a Philippine holiday called Rizal Day. Rizal's 1896 military trial and execution made him a martyr of the Philippine Revolution.

The seventh of eleven children born to the Mercado family, a prosperous middle class Filipino and Chinese-mestizo family in the town of Calamba in the Province of Laguna, Rizal attended Ateneo de Manila University and then traveled alone to Madrid, Spain where he studied medicine at the Universidad Central de Madrid, earning the degree Licentiate in Medicine. He earned a second doctorate at the University of Paris and the University of Heidelberg. Rizal was a polyglot conversant in at least ten languages: Spanish, French, Latin, German, Portuguese, French, Italian, English, Dutch and Japanese. He was a prolific poet, essayist, diarist, correspondent, and novelist whose most famous works were his two novels, Noli me Tangere and El Filibusterismo, social commentaries on the Philippines under Spanish colonial rule that formed the nucleus of literature that inspired dissent among the European-educated Filipino peaceful reformists and spurred the militancy of armed revolutionaries against 300 years of Spanish colonial rule.

As a political figure, Rizal was the founder of La Liga Filipina, a civic organization that subsequently gave birth to the Katipunan led by Bonifacio and Aguinaldo.[5] He was a reformer for an open society rather than a revolutionary for political independence; he advocated popular representation in effecting institutional reforms by peaceful means rather than by violent revolution. The general consensus among Rizal scholars, however, attributed his martyred death as the catalyst that precipitated the Philippine Revolution. Historians contend that Rizal's patriotism and his standing as one of Asia's first intellectuals of the post-colonial era have inspired succeeding thinkers and revolutionaries of the centrality of national identity as a social force in the project of nation-building.
