Inspection Notes

Photojournalist Kim Komenich was awarded the 1987 Pulitzer Prize for his photos of the fall of the Ferdinand Marcos Regime in the Philippines in 1986. Komenich returned to the Philippines eight times from 2010-2015 to rephotograph and interview some of the people-- rich and poor-- in his 1980's photos. He wanted to know whether, after more than two decades, the "People Power" (or EDSA) Revolution had actually made a difference in peoples' lives.

The 120-page book features duotone renditions of more than 100 of Komenich's photos, taken from 1984-1986 while he was on assignment for the San Francisco Examiner with reporter Phil Bronstein. The first two chapters of the book show the human toll of the corruption and cronyism of the Marcos government. The photos then show the rise of opposition presidential candidate Corazon C. Aquino, whose husband, opposition leader Benigno S. Aquino, Jr. was assassinated at Manila International Airport in 1983. Later chapters show how millions took to the streets to oust Marcos and install Aquino as president. In the book's final chapter, Komenich revisits some of his 1980's subjects including former Philippine President Fidel Ramos and former first lady Imelda Marcos as well as Filipinos who were in the streets as the revolution unfolded.
