About Clemencia López

Clemencia López y Castelo was a Filipina activist involved in the movement for Philippine independence. López was born into a wealthy Filipino family, and many of her siblings were also notable activists in the struggle for Philippine independence. In 1901, López set out on a nearly two-year journey across the United States, petitioning for the freedom of three of her brothers who had been imprisoned by the American military in the Philippines. Throughout her stay in the United States, López drew attention to the Philippine independence movement, became the first Filipina to ever enter the White House, and spent time studying at Wellesley College. López returned to the Philippines in 1903, where she spent the remainder of her life campaigning for both Philippine independence and encouraging women to take on a greater role in public life.
