Especially for my children, that you may know the richness of your Filipino heritage and continue to grow in its unique strength and beauty. To my mother, Trinidad Sason Angeles Jacky, your motivation is what was needed to finish – you WILL see me in my regalia! I dedicate this study and dissertation to the memory of my Lola, Luisa Aquino Sason Angeles, who gave me my first lessons in what it meant to be Pinay; in memory of Inocencia Ogan Gibson who let me learn my heritage through dance; and to the many aunties and women role models who encouraged me to do this and do good with this. “It is up to the women who are in positions of power and responsibility to push for the equality that women aspire for and deserve.” –Corazon Aquino v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My deepest gratitude goes to all the amazing people who guided me on this journey. The completion of this dissertation would not have been possible without each one of you who took steps by my side and travelled along this road with me. A special thank you goes to my dissertation committee Chair, Dr. Caroline SotelloTurner. Your ability to know how to help people the way they need it was vital for me to finish. I needed the balance of gentle reminders to keep going and the moments of space for my own creative energy to flow. Thank you to my committee members, Dr. Alex Gonzalez and Dr. Rose Borunda for sharing your wisdom, mentoring me, and having patience and flexibility during this strange, historic time. To the Cristo Rey Sacramento community, I have learned as I worked alongside you. Your stories inspired me to action, to do more, to not settle for the status quo. To the Jesuits, Sisters of Mercy and the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur who instilled their charisms of Service, Mercy and Goodness that I can take wherever this path leads. In particular, Sr. Eileen Enright, RSM who challenged me to reach higher, to use my gifts for something greater and who showed me that I don’t have to compromise my joy to fight injustice. For my fellow cohort mates, when no one else understood, I could always turn to you. vi CURRICULUM VITAE Education AA Sociology Cosumnes River College Sacramento, CA BA Social Work California State University Sacramento Sacramento, CA MA Religious Education Loyola University, New Orleans New Orleans, LA EdD Educational Leadership California State University Sacramento Sacramento, CA Professional Employment Cristo Rey High School Sacramento, CA Christian Brothers High School Sacramento, CA St. Patrick’s Academy Sacramento, CA Alta Regional Center Sacramento, CA Asian Pacific Community Counseling Sacramento, CA Other Relevant Training Sexual Violence Prevention and Discrimination, Harassment and Retaliation compliance training.

Jacky Mamola This qualitative study examines the lived experiences of Filipino American women working in leadership positions at higher education institutions. The study uses Critical Race Theory as well as Feminist Critical Theory, Latina/o/x Critical Race Theory, and Asian Critical Race Theory as a framework with which to view the stories of its participants. A review of the history of Filipino American immigration from specific time periods provides an historical perspective from which to understand their lived experiences. This phenomenological study includes interviews of 10 Filipino American women leaders employed at colleges and universities in the United States to gain insights into their experience as presented in their own voice. Specifically, this study will address the following research questions: 1. What are the personal and professional challenges and facilitators that Filipino American women encounter to attain positions of leadership at institutions of higher education? ix 2. What role might historical events and socio-cultural factors have on Filipino American women to create opportunities and obstacles for working in leadership positions at colleges universities in the present? 3. How can the study of historical literature and the lived experience interview findings contribute to the development of Filipino Critical Race Theory (FlipCRiT)? x TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Dedication ………………………………………………………………………….. v Acknowledgements ………………………………………………………………… vi Curriculum Vitae …………………………………………………………………… vii List of Tables .……………………………………………………………………… xvi List of Figures …………………………………………………………………… xvii CHAPTER 1.

  • Historical and Legal Analyses in Support of the Extension of U.S
    Equity Denied: Historical and Legal Analyses in Support of the Extension of U.S. Veterans' Benefits to Filipino World War II Veterans Michael A. Cabotajet FilipinoArmy veterans played an essentialrole in the United States' vic- tory in the Pacific during World War II. Although their contributions to this effort were recognized by the President and Congress, these indi- viduals have been denied the promised right to veterans' benefits. The author presents the historical context behind the promulgation of 38 US.C. § 107, the key legislation that denied Filipino World War II veter- ans their benefits. The author explains the judicialreasoning which held §107 constitutional and argues that given the body of discriminatory case law which has been developed, the denial of benefits to the Filipino veterans is unjust and warrantsreconsideration. INTRODUCTION PhilippineArmy veterans are nationals of the United States and will con- tinue in that status until July 4, 1946. They fought, as American Nation- als, under the American flag, and under the direction of our military leaders. They fought with gallantry and courage under most difficult conditions during the recent conflict. Their officers were commissioned by us. Their official organization, the Army of the Philippine Common- wealth, was taken into the Armed Forces of the United States by executive order of the president of the United States on July 26, 1941. That order has never been revoked or amended I consider it a moral obligation of the UnitedStates to look after the wel- fare of the PhilippineArmy veterans. -President Harry S. Truman, February 20, 1946' t J.D. University of California, Berkeley School of Law (Boalt Hall), 1998.

'We've Been Waiting a Long Time' The Struggle to Pass the Filipino Veterans Equity Act and a Bittersweet Ending to a Sixty-Three-Year Battle BY PAUL DANIEL RIVERA* Introduction On February 17, 2009, President Barack Obama signed into law the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.1 Widely known as the "Stimulus Bill," it was a 789 billion dollar response to the country's economic downturn that included a wide range of provisions for the funding of initiatives in education, health care, and infrastructure.2 Buried amidst the hundreds of pages and the billions of dollars funded by the bill was Title X, Section 1002 ("Section 1002"), a diminutive two pages of text authorizing the federal government to give "Payments to Eligible Persons Who Served in the United States Armed Forces in the Far East During World War 11.,, 3 It was an ambiguously sounding provision that may have had 4 no business being in an economic stimulus bill.

Having lived in America some 30 E years now I am familiar with how people celebrate Independence here—they have parades, barbecues and in the evening fireworks. When we left the Philippines years ago fireworks were banned in the country. I don’t know how it is today. It would be wonderful if Filipinos celebrated Independence Day similar to or better than the usual parades, picnics, barbecues and some fireworks. When I was a kid growing up, Independence Day was observed on July 4th, the day when the United States granted the country independence from American rule. The American flag was finally lowered from government building flagpoles and the Philippine flag was hoisted in its stead. From that day until one day in 1962 the country celebrated Independence Day on the same day the United States celebrated its own Independence Day. But on May 12, 1962 then President Diosdado Macapagal issued Presidential Proclamation No.
