Katipunan and The
Revolution: Memoirs
of A General
The purpose of the election that happened in Tejeros is to re-establish the council for equality and to achieve a well- organized and well-runned, and rational government.

The bias of the author is that it focuses mainly on the election that happened and Alvarez, being a member of one of the factions - Magdiwang Council, was very noticeable as the narrative was told in the perspective of the Magdiwang Council.
Similarities There are similarities in how they portrayed the happenings in the election at Tejeros.
Differences > It was Baldomero Aguinaldo who initiated to end the meeting > Diego Mojica warned the Supremo - Andres Bonifacio, that he was being cheated on, and that most ballots were already filled out even before distribution

C. Finding/Conclusion
In your examination of the sources,
what did you find out?
In my examination of the sources, it surprised me to find out that even before back then, cheating on elections was already prevalent at that time. We might not notice or feel it, but I still believe that we are still suffering from the consequences that our history left us. But one thing that I really liked about the narrative on the Katipunan and the Revolution is the emphasis on the fact that the social standing in life will never define someone’s worth, value, and capabilities. Andres Bonifacio defending that equality and justice should be prioritized instead of their social standing was one of the greatest thing I read and it validates the fact that not everyone excels on the same things but everyone have different fields they excel to so it is not just right to insult someone based on their social standing in life.
