"Not all heroes wear capes."

This is a phrase that's often used online to talk about normal people who do amazing things.

They don't need a cape — like Superman — to do something amazing.

But here's a hero who not only didn't wear a cape — he didn't have a name either.

Or at least, he kept his name a secret.

This is the story of a Filipino man in Japan who saved a young boy from the sea in Fukuoka city.

A 6-year-old boy was at Hakozaki pier with his family when he fell about 2 meters down into the water below. His family didn't notice at first that he had fallen, but the Filipino man did.

He was fishing nearby, and jumped into the sea to keep the boy safe while they waited to be helped out of the water.

The 6-year-old was not wearing a life jacket, and the coast guard said if the man had not jumped in, the boy could have been in trouble.

The Filipino man, who is 26 and lives in Fukuoka, gave his details to the coast guard afterward. But when the family asked for his name and his contact information, he declined and went home.

Some reports said he replied that he was not worth identifying.

SoraNews24 said the man replied in Japanese: "I'm not important enough for people to need to be concerned about my name."

The website said this is a phrase that is more likely to be used in action movies or manga, perhaps by a hero who has just saved the day.

The Filipino man was not hurt, while the boy was taken to hospital.

しゅみ

En 2021, el Gobierno de la Ciudad de México decidió ―pese a no cerrarse completamente el ciclo hasta el 2025― conmemorar con diversos eventos los siete siglos de existencia de México-Tenochtitlan, sus 700 años. De igual manera dentro de esta conmemoración se busca hablar de la Conquista de México y así hablar de 500 años de resistencia de los Pueblos Originarios y de que actualmente las 69 lenguas originarias en México se siguen manteniendo, de esta resistencia cultural que sigue viviendo, reconociendo y afirmando a los Pueblos Originarios de México. Es así como dentro de esta celebración se busca resaltar la gran diversidad y lo que representaba la Cultura Mexica y lo que significó su dominio, finalmente la fundación de nuestra ahora Ciudad de México.

La celebración comenzó en marzo, con el equinoccio de primavera, fecha de suma relevancia en la tradición ancestral, pues implica el renacer de la vida en un nuevo ciclo. Se escogieron lugares de relevancia histórica: se dio inicio a los festejos en la zona arqueológica de Cuicuilco, al sur de la capital del país, continuando en Azcapotzalco y en Iztapalapa, en cuyo Cerro de la Estrella se realizaba la Ceremonia del Fuego Nuevo.
El 13 de marzo de 2021 tocó turno a Xochimilco, en cuyo Parque Ecológico se abrió el Museo Chionampaxóchitl (Flor de Chinampas) y se develó el mural de mosaicos en Xochimilco, actividad con eco en el Pueblo de Magdalena Mixiuhca. Además, el 21 de mayo se realizó la ceremonia del Tóxcatl (“sequedad” o “cosa seca”), tradición para pedir lluvias a Tláloc durante mayo y junio, temporada estival.

Los eventos fueron realizados a lo largo del 2021, hasta septiembre, cuando se entrelazaron con los festejos por el Bicentenario de la Independencia de México. Las actividades que se desarrollaron contribuyen a garantizar el acceso al derecho a la identidad cultural y a la memoria, porque son sustanciales para la convivencia social y para preservar la dignidad y la pertenencia.
