#TodayinHistory in 1920, 100 yrs ago, Eva Estrada Kalaw, #Filipina senator, assemblywoman & democracy advocate, is born in Murcia (now Concepcion), #Tarlac, #PH. She was the 1st Filipina senator to win reelection (1971). Kalaw was known for her independent voice. (THREAD) 🇵🇭 Image
Kalaw was acknowledged as one of the few women to have enrolled in @upsystem during the Commonwealth period, going against the grain of Filipina students trained in the Catholic secondary schools that saw UP as too secular for an educational institution. Image
In 1944, she married Teodoro Kalaw Jr., son of Teodoro & Pura V. Kalaw, known advocates of education and women's rights. She decided to run for politics, supported by her husband. Kalaw clinched a surprising win in the Senate in 1965, under the Nacionalista Party ticket. Image
