    “My name is José Apolonio Burgos y García (February 9, 1837 – February 17, 1872). I was a Filipino Catholic priest, I’ve been accused of mutiny by the Spanish colonial authorities in the Philippines in the 19th century. I was tried and executed in Manila along with two other clergymen, Mariano Gomez and Jacinto Zamora, who are collectively known as the Gomburza.”
