I am really curious about Filipinos in Hawaii because I just feel they have to balance 3 identities - their Filipino heritage, being a resident in Hawaii and being an American citizen.
@@francis802usDescendants of earlier Ilocano and Visayan migrants to Hawaii do not really identify with the Philippines. Nation building started only after we officially became an independent country from the U.S. and the plantation workers were brought over there during the Commonwealth era.
Wish we had the youth program 2nd generation all over California the Filipino youth wasted there life it was the gang generation we pick up from the Mexican gang and African American gang we had no Filipinos to direct us to the right path
The Spanish DID NOT INVADE Filipinas.. You don't create culture with an invader, but with a foreign culture that becomes married to the indigenous culture. Esgrima began in Barili, Cebú, and my mother's mother was Petra Cañete. The Cañete family brought esgrima to San José, California.
Nice documentary but Filipinos are austonesians the aboriginal austonesians settled first in the Philippines from formoso islands those original austonesians settled and lived in the Philippines then they sailed ti guam to melanesia to polynesian 3000 years ago proto malayo polynesian language orgin is Philippines islands so DNA and canoe and pottery and linguistically in micronesia and polynesia alot.of the words are the same as in there language we created them

Kite flying is a traditional practice in Chile too, in September all the kites decorate the street corners for the children to buy.

Growing up, when I would hear, are you Filipino? No, I’m Ilocano. But now response is more, I’m Filipino.

Aside from being a Filipino, they are also regionalistic with their local heritage Ilocanos, Visayans.

Maybe they just see themselves as human? 🤷🏻♀️
@@anatoliagolden-hall4553 being human is already a given. But being a human that has to balance 3 cultures, i find it very interesting.
