November every year is a very important month for every Negrosanon as we celebrate the al Cinco de Noviembre and the Negros Oriental Liberation day from Spanish Rule with the Dumaguete Charter day Celebration the same day Nov 24 every year.
As a student of History and History Professor, I want to make an impact awareness to the people and my students on significant events in our local history in Negros.
I hope that the Province of Negros Oriental will celebrate this historic victory every year. after the pandemic . This year 123rd years Liberation Negros Day due to Negros Revolution that climaxed on Noviembre (November 24), 1898.
