Was he a better military man or politician? Lila Ramos Shahani discusses FVR's long and storied career, as well as her memories of him as her doting tito who became her father figure when her own father died when she was very young. She describes him as brilliant yet, like many men of his generation, he possessed a machismo that did not allow him to see women as equals. He was a constitutionalist who staunchly opposed political dynasties which discouraged talented members of his own family from seeking public office. Learn more about the democracy icon through Lila’s unique lens in this conversation recorded on August 17, 2022.
