EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in the history of the Moro Constabulary in the Philippines during the early 1910s. The Moro Constabulary was a native police force established by the American colonial administration to maintain law and order among the Moro people, who are the predominantly Muslim indigenous population in the southern regions of the Philippines. The Moro Constabulary was composed mainly of Moro recruits, who were trained and led by American officers. In this image, a group of Moro Constabulary officers, dressed in their full uniforms, are seen standing alongside their American counterparts. The Moro officers wear traditional headdresses and carry their distinctive curved swords, known as kris, as part of their uniform. The American officers, dressed in their dress uniforms, display their ranks on their collars and cuffs. The Moro Constabulary was an essential component of the American colonial administration's efforts to bring stability to the southern Philippines, which was plagued by rebellions and banditry. The force played a crucial role in securing the region and protecting the local population from external threats. However, it was also criticized for its heavy-handed tactics and human rights abuses, which fueled resentment among the Moro people and contributed to the ongoing conflict in the region. This photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering insights into the complex relationship between the American colonial administration, the Moro people, and the Moro Constabulary during a pivotal period in Philippine history.
