October is Filipina/o-American Heritage Month.

According to Wikipedia, Filipino-American Heritage Month, has been celebrated since 1988. 

If it has been around nearly 3 decades, then why don't many people-API-identified or otherwise-- seem to know about it or acknowledge it?

This month we're centering Filipinx voices in a live conversation around Filipinx-American identity. Does Filipino-American Heritage Month matter to Filipinos? What, if anything, are folks under the broad API umbrella doing to stand up for and center these communities in the Pacific Northwest?

Tune in at 9am this Friday, October 6th, as we dig in to these questions in a live conversation featuring Jake Vermaas of the Whitenoise project in conversation with Maryanna Hollomon and Angelica Lim of GABRIELA Portland.
