Jose Rizal was a Filipino national hero, writer, and doctor. His greatest contribution was that he used his skills in writing during the colonization by the Spanish, and many Filipinos were abused and mistreated. Then, Rizal helped to educate them that they are all one country and that their problems are the same. He taught them to be proud of their rights as citizens of their country.
Rizal expressed his idea through the novels Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo, which contain the wrongdoings of Spanish leaders and friars and the people they affected with their cruelty. With the help of these books, Rizal helped them to think better, question the things they had been taught to follow, and to foster the hope for change.
Jose Rizal believed that education could make the country better and lead to peaceful action. He showed that fighting for the nation does not always have to be violent, but it can be done through knowledge and good values. Thus, he lived and died a great example of the love of the country.
