About Kirby:
Kirby Pábalan-Táyag Aráullo is a Filipino American historian, content creator, and renowned culture bearer based in California. He is also the author of the groundbreaking book “Black Lives & Brown Freedom: Untold Histories of War, Solidarity, & Genocide,” and the Co-Founder and former Director of Operations for the Bulosan Center for Filipino Studies at the University of California, Davis. As of 2022, Kirby serves in the City of Sacramento as Council Representative for District 8 and Communications Director for the Office of Mayor Pro Tem Mai Vang.
Kirby is a direct descendant of the last indigenous Paramount Kings of Luzon (of both Lakandúlâ of Tondo and Rája Matandá of Maynílâ), of the anti-colonial revolutionary Katipuneros, and of World War II Guerilyeras who fought for the liberation of the islands we now call the Philippines.
Born in Angeles City, Philippines, Kirby spent his childhood amidst the rebuilding of his homeland in the aftermath of Mt. Pinatubo’s cataclysmic eruption. His childhood beneath the shadows of the city’s red-light district, slum neighborhoods, and Clark Air Base (a former U.S. military installation) sparked his lifelong passion in advocating for the rights and the well-being of marginalized and disenfranchised communities. As a direct descendant of revolutionaries, politicos, and activists, Kirby’s upbringing was molded by productively engaging and navigating the realms of advocacy, traditional politics, and grassroots activism.
With a keen interest in varying fields (such as history, public affairs, and filmmaking) and a strong commitment to serving the community, Kirby studied at some of the world’s most prestigious institutions, such as Harvard University, the University of California, Davis, and the Université catholique de Louvain (one of Europe’s oldest universities). He has been teaching Filipino people’s history through writing in indigenous Philippine scripts (Kulitan & Baybayin) for over a decade.
Today, Kirby is well-known for his educationally engaging KZfaq channel where you can find videos about history, culture, and everything in between! He is also currently working on his next big book “Luzones & the New World: Forgotten Histories from Southeast Asia to the Americas” along with an easy-to-read book and zine series known as “Know Our Roots,” and an educational coloring book series called “Color Our Roots.”
Kirby is an educator who is well-rooted in his culture and passionate about his colorful heritage (Kapampángan, Tagálog, Indigenous Áytá, Pangasinan, and Spanish-Basque-Portuguese-Irish Mestizo); he strives to decolonize Philippine history and democratize Ethnic Studies through knowledge and creativity. Kirby is a Dátû and Lakan by blood but an Artist-Scholar-Activist at heart.

i laughed not because of Tamblot (who btw... that name brings back memories from childhood) being trans, but because a revolt being led by a trans babaylan is one of those moments that makes me think and feel "oh yes, that there is definitely a very Filipino moment right there. Made in the Philippines." That sorta thing isn't something I hear as often from other places as I do from the Philippines We've long had this sort of kindness to letting such types of ppl live out their lives, something that has frequently intrigued and fascinated me abt the attitude of our ancestors on gender (I mean despite various societal problems rn there's a reason we're usually ranked as the most gender equal country in Asia.... (at least with the traditional male and female) and I'm willing to bet we're better at it than even the USA lmao) Also, ngl but despite being (non-aligned and extremely non-religious) Christian, I would've rooted for Tamblot anyway, I hate the cultural amnesia the Spaniards have cursed us on XD

And yet this is not taught in Philippine history subject, because the Philippines itself supports the Catholic Church ⛪️ which also favours the European colonizers who also happens to be the spreader of Christianity 😫😫😫😫😫 We are really that ass-kissing colonized people if this is not going to be taught in schools for future generations. Once a colony will always be a colony. Hope the next leaders Philippines will break the shackle that binds us Filipinos from colonial mentality.

Every morning and evening I burn incense and give offerings to my Bisayan and Ilokano ancestors along with prayers for guidance; Tamblot’s revolt was not a total failure lol. And I like how the Tamblot revolt is another example of Spanish colonial military being unable to function or complete any objectives without Indio auxiliary assistance. It’s like every revolt was not even put down by the Spanish but by loyal Indios; showing where the real powers were.

Trans people are considered to be a blessing or a miracles. In Austronesian culture, the priest are mostly trans or transvestites. Even in Javanese kingdoms, especially in Hindu-Buddhist era, they serve at the palace because they are believed to have supernatural powers or spiritual powers.

Hi sir. I would just ask that Is there a wide consensus among scholars or Philippine historians that proves tambolot is indeed trans also do you have outside sources from the ones you showed in the link because the links that you shared shows groups in favor of the LGBTQ lifestyle and their biases may put more emphasis on tambolot being trans. I would like to check other sources or links that you can share. Thank you.

I think this is shifting the definition of trans-gender a bit too much. For one, you don't ritually become a transgender as you ritually become Bayugin. You were always a man but were born in a female body, for lack of a better phrase, "male brain in female body" this is different from going through a process to become a Bayugin as a man. Also, your stuff with pronouns, I have nothing to indicate something like that would have actually happened. Yes, pronouns don't exist and yes, they were counted as among the women in social but would have still been recognized as male even if as a priestess, a male priestess.

Open main menu Wikipedia Search Tamblot Article Talk Language Download PDF Watch Edit Tamblot (fl. 1621-1622) was the name given to a babaylan (a Visayan term for mediums and religious leaders in the Philippines' pre-colonial and early colonial periods) who incited a series of uprisings against Spanish colonial rule in the island of Bohol. Indigenous religions and beliefs played a huge part behind the revolts' inception as Roman Catholicism spread throughout the Philippine archipelago, a process which many of its inhabitants rejected in favor of their local customs. A few uprisings in the early colonial era such as this one were thus motivated in part by resistance against the presence of Christianity. Tamblot Personal Religion Indigenous Boholano belief systems Flourished 1621-1622 Known for Igniting native resistance against Spanish occupation in Bohol Occupation Priest (babaylan) Tamblot successfully convinced parts of the Boholano population to revolt against the Spanish Empire, who held full dominion over the island, by informing the residents about a diwata-a localized term for a deity or god-who pledged to aid them in expelling Spain out of Bohol. Persuaded, people in most of the island's villages began to revolt and wreak havoc, gaining the attention of the nearby province of Cebu and its alcalde-mayor by the name of Don Juan Alcarazo. Some colonial sources explain that the diwata also promised to grant the Boholanos a joyous future in exchange for their servitude to and construction of a shrine dedicated to the deity in question, apart from their departure from Spain's religion and authority. Alcarazo subsequently assembled his troops consisting of Spanish and Philippine soldiers then traveled to Bohol, leading the others through the thick, mountainous forests inland in pursuit of the rebels. The enemy forces eventually met, and a downpour of rain befell the battle scene. Tamblot and the other Boholanos interpreted the rainfall as the act of their diwata, whom they believed was sabotaging Alcarazo's troops and their weapons. However, his soldiers managed to push them back and cause them to retreat. Afterwards, the alcalde-mayor eventually quashed the revolt, killing and capturing many of its insurgents. Despite the victory, Alcarazo would have to put down more acts of civil unrest in the Pintados Islands[note 1] before peace in the region could be restored.

@@yourdailykickofjokjok829 I can confirm that Kirby always back up his debate with proof and evidence so I would trust him to tell me Philippine history than some other Filipino guy who tells me our history that picked up only by some foreign vloggers or myth tales without proper schooling or digging deep into our history and create his or her own version of it. Kirby itself already proven his authenticity by publishing some books about our forgotten history. Bakla are socially and economically integrated into Filipino society, having been accepted by society prior to Western colonization, many of which were held in high regard and performed the role of spiritual leaders known as babaylan, katalonan, and other shamans in pre-colonial Philippines. However, a minority group of Filipinos disapprove or reject the baklas, usually on religious grounds. The stereotype of a baklâ is a parlorista-a flamboyant, camp cross-dresser who works in a beauty salon; in reality, the bakla thrives in numerous sectors of society, from the lower to the upper levels.[7][8][9] Asog shamans were leaders of several revolts against Spanish rule from the 17th century to the 18th century. Notable ones include the Tamblot uprising of Bohol in 1621-1622 and the Tapar rebellion in Panay in 1663.[49][50] Later rebellions in the 19th and 20th centuries were also led by male shamans. However, these later shamans (collectively known as the dios-dios, "god pretenders") followed syncretic Folk Catholicism, rather than pre-colonial anito shamanism. Though they still dressed as women in rituals, they were married to women and were unlikely to be homosexual.[37][51] Feminized men were also persecuted harshly in the (then recently) Islamized ethnic groups in Mindanao. In Historia de las Islas de Mindanao, Iolo, y sus adyacentes (1667), the Spanish priest Francisco Combés records that their "unnatural crime" was punished by the Muslim peoples in Mindanao with death by burning or drowning, and that their houses and property were also burned as they believed that it was contagious.[15] Tamblot: Oath of the Homo transisus by T.L Javier Pag-alala kay Tamblot: Panunumpa ng Homo transisus Pula; dugo sa paligid Kahel; presong uniporme Dilaw; bumbilya sa taas Berde; lumot sa kulungan Asul; Nakalimutang langit Tinà; banyagang kulay Lila; panaginip na ubas Ang Homo transisus ay hanggang trenta y dos lang nabubuhay. Sa Earth-1 kung saan maraming balang ligaw at opinyong ligaw. Hindi Nakatatagal ng hininga ang mga anak ng bahaghari. Inuubusan ng Paghinga at pahinga. Walang bubong ang mga utong nakalawit Dinidilaan nang mga aninong delikdado. Sa talahib lang may pulso. Ito ang buhay ng mga transisus. Noon- Ngayon: Ebolusyon, XX, YY, 23,64 Rebolusyon; giniba ang Earth-1; lumago ang pitong kulay; Lumakas ang pag-alala. Hindi papayag malimutan. Nagmartsa ang transisus. Hinulma ang daan patungong Earth-147. Ang langit dito ay asul, rosas; nilinyahan ng Mga puting ulap sa gitna. Sa mundong ito, lahat ng transisus ay may alagang bitwing-dragon, Proteksyon laban sa mga ligaw na bala at ligaw na pagtinging ng nasyon. Sa mundong ito, ang mga sarado ang isip ay naging android; matigas, mekanikal Mekanismo ng diktaduryang estado na isinilang. Hanggang dito, may itim sa bahaghari Monstroterte ang pangalan ng pasistang salamangkero. Gumawa siya ng aninong-espada Gamit ang patak ng dugo ng bahaghari. Walang kabuluhan ang pananalita, nagsasalita ng limericks: “May araw noon na dumating Ang pinakamalakas na pwersa, panalangin. Ngayon, ito ay pinaslang ng Homo Transisus Estrogen,testes, kasuka-sukang pagkakaibang unos Hulihin ang buwan, mga nahuhulog na bitwin nito’y durugin” Lumaban ang mga ‘di pangkaraniwan, Inutusan ang kanilang mga dragon na lusubin ang palasyo Sa kasukdulan ng labanan, nabuhay ang mga Ninuno ng transisus. Mga kaluluwang lumaban, nanatili. Dumating ang personipikasyon ni Tamblot, Ang babaylan na ginapi ang krus at espada ng mga Kastilang dumating sa Bayang ina Bitbit ang kaniyang bolo, umalingawngaw ang aral ng 1624: “Tayong mga anak ng bahaghari, gusto nating mabuhay. Mabuhay nang mahaba. Kaya ngayon na may sulyap nang pag-asa Biyak sa kanilang hanay, lumaban tayo!” Kilala ng mga Homo transisus ang tunay na kalaban, Hindi ang mga mekanikal ang pag-iisip Kung ‘di ang nasa aninong langit Monarkiyang pinag-iwananan na ng panahon Ito ang panunumpa ng transisus: Sa amin ang Earth-147. Ang ako ay kami. Manganganak ang mga kulay: Kulay-langit; Mananatili Kami Rosas; Mananatili kami Kulay-langit; Kami’y mananatili Rosas; Kami ay nanatili, Remembering Tamblot*: Oath of the Homo Transisus Red; blood everywhere Orange; prisoner clothes Yellow; light bulb above Green; moss in cells Blue; forgotten sky Indigo; foreign color Violet; dreams of grapes Homo transisus only lives for thirty-two years**. In Earth-1 where there are stray bullets and stray views. The breath of children of the rainbow does not last. Left With no breath, left with no rest. Nipples are not roofed; Licked by perilous shadows. Life only pulses in the talahib***. This is the life of a transisus. Then- Now: Evolution, XX, YY, 23, 64 Revolution, Earth-1 was demolished; the seven colors prospered Remembering grew strong. Refusing to be forgotten. The transisus marched. Forged the path towards Earth-147. The sky here is pale blue, pink; line with White clouds in the middle. In this realm, all transisus have a star-dragon familiar, Protection against stray bullets and stray views of the nation. In this realm, close minds became androids; stiff, mechanical Mechanism of a birthed fascist state. Even here, black came to the rainbow Monstroterte is the name of the fascist mage. He made a shadow-sword using Blood drops from the rainbow. His speech was nonsense; spoke in limericks: “There was once an old day When the greatest power is to pray, Now it has been butchered by the Homo transisus Estrogen, testes, sickening heterogeneous Catch the moon, its stars are falling prey” Those who were uncommon fought, Commanded their dragons to attack the palace In the climax of the battle, the ancestors Of the transisus lived. Souls that fought, souls that stayed. Tamblot’s personification arrived the babaylan**** that waged war against the cross and sword of the Spaniards that arrived at their shores. Carrying his bolo, lessons from 1624 echoed: “We, the children of the rainbow, we like to live. Live long. Now that there is a glimpse of hope, A crack in their line, let us wage war!” Homo transisus knows the true adversary, It’s not the mechanical perspectives But those living up there in the shadow-sky A monarchy stuck in time. This is the oath of the transisus Ours is Earth-147. I is we. Colors will give birth. Sky-blue; We will stay. Pink; We will stay.

Oh lord the denial of people indoctrinated by Christianity in the comments is appalling. Different tribes back then were always more progressive (and accepting of the local LGBTQ) until colonization destroyed local cultures that they're having revivalists only recently. The destroying of cultures wasn't only in the Philippines and Africa, this includes Latin America as well. They have similar indigenous roots as us, with similar cultural patterns and the promotion of Western Christianity helped almost eradicate all that (blending Catholicism with local beliefs). Also if you need sources, there's usually a lot in university libraries and online journals but some of them are hidden behind a paywall.

Please don't use your platform to push the narrative that this is a trans revolt. Tamblot is a male babaylan yes.. in the old visayan time male babaylan are known as isog.. basically means males that are acting more like females. If you really want an equivalent of them in today's time. In my opinion tamblot is considered more of a gay man, than a trans. Even the depiction of him during the revolt is him wearing the male babaylan clothes. He is not cross dressing.

@@qcgarcia Not really, if you're saying that it's incorrect to use trans in this video because the first person recorded as trans was in 1926, then that's not the best case to make. While the babaylans weren't trans in the sense of the modern term they weren't that far off.
