The University of San Francisco POLITICAL, EMOTIONAL, POWERFUL: THE TRANSFORMATIVE INFLUENCE OF THE PIN@Y EDUCATIONAL PARTNERSHIPS (PEP) A Dissertation Presented To The Faculty of the School of Education Organization and Leadership Department In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Education By Roderick Raña Daus-Magbual San Francisco May 2010 1 THE UNIVERSITY OF SAN FRANCISCO Dissertation Abstract Political, Emotional, Powerful: The Transformative Influence of the Pin@y Educational Partnerships (PEP) The colonial legacy of education has been used as a critical medium in the creation and sustainment of empire in the Philippines. The colonial influences of Spain and America instituted benevolent narratives of Christianity, democracy, and education to control the minds, bodies, and souls of many Filipinos. (Constantino 2002; MacDonald & Monkman, 2005; Spring 2005; Woodson 1933). Although education has been a tool of domination, education can serve as a critical counter narrative for both personal and social liberation (Freire 2002; Yosso 2005). The legacies of Spanish and American colonialism permeate through generations of Filipinas/os and the question of identity remains an oppressive stranglehold that Filipina/o American youth face. This research examined the Pin@y Educational Partnerships (PEP); a social justice education leadership pipeline that foster critical Filipina/o American urban educators. I explore the reclamation and refiguration of memory, identity, and action through an appropriation of curriculum, pedagogy, and emplotment that is rooted within the critical historical legacies of Filipinas/os and Filipina/o Americans. The significance of this research reveals the personal narratives of Filipina/o American teachers and students of PEP and how this program has molded their experiences to become educators and leaders in our communities. This project sheds light on community base i organizations, schools, colleges, and university partnerships in integrating Filipina/o American studies in K-College curriculum. The design used in this study was derived from the critical hermeneutic and research protocol from Herda (1999). Based on Ricoeur’s (1984, 1992) mimesis, narrative identity, and Habermas (1984, 1987) communicative action this research unveiled the following: (1) the formation of agency and responsibility to become socially and politically engaged through a critical appropriation of Filipina/o and Filipina/o American experiences; (2) mediating time and narrative in shaping a critical Filipina/o American identity of community, mentorship, and leadership; (3) and communicative action towards solidarity and reproduction of a critical Filipina/o American lifeworld. Ultimately, this study contributes to the ever changing and dynamic identity of Filipina/o Americans to re-remember and value the indigenous past, as well as the freedom to critically appropriate a new narrative of Filipina/o American studies and identity. ii This dissertation, written under the direction of the candidate's dissertation committee and approved by the members of the committee, has been presented to and accepted by the Faculty of the School of Education in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education. The content and research methodologies presented in this work represent the work of the candidate alone.

To my Manong Rich, my best friend and older brother for giving me the aspiration and reality to go to college and that becoming a doctor is possible. If it were not for you taking Filipino American History at UCR in 1995, I would not have had the exposure to great Filipina/o authors such as: Fred Cordova, Carlos Bulosan, and Dr. Steffi Buenaventura to inform me about my history and identity. To Mom and Pa, words would not do justice for what you have done for me. All the sacrifice, support, and love you have blessed me with have made me the son, husband, and father I am today. Special thanks to: my beautiful wife, Arlene, and my wonderful daughter, Amianan. You are my love, my hope, and my rock. Arlene, thank you for being the love of my life and unconditionally supporting my endeavors. This dissertation would not have been possible without your shoulder to cry on and the ear to listen to my critical hermeneutical revelations. I promise to support you when you are in your dissertation journey. Amianan my love, you embody the hope and possibility of the future. Remember your past to understand your future. My work is guided and dedicated to you both. Ay Ayaten Kayo (I love you both). This dissertation is beyond me, but for my family struggling in the Philippines, that youth searching for an identity and purpose, and the work and passion of activists, artists, scholars, students and educators who are committed to the lifework of social justice. For the past, present, and future.

He was quietly released after bribing the Spanish commander, but seventeen others of his company were retained for their value as guides, pilots or interpreters or, in the case of three females, for other virtues. One of these was a slave who could speak Spanish or, more accu- rately, "a Moor who understood something of our Castilian language, who was called Pazeculan."l A later account identifies this slave as a pilot and a Makassarese who, "after having been captured and passed from one master to another, had wound up in the service of the prince of L~zon."~His special linguistic proficiency may have been the result of the vicissitudes of his captivity, and so may his faith, since Makassar did not adopt Islam until the next century.

  • 110116 Ancient Entrepreneures
    1 Ancient Pinoy entrepreneurs Pilipino Express • Vol. 2 No. 17 Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada September 1, 2006 History books tell us that Ferdi- nand Magellan discovered the Philip- pines in 1521. The familiar story says that he landed in the Visayas and soon met his end when he tangled with Lapulapu in the Battle of Mactan. Because the books all tell us that Magellan discovered the Philippines, many people assume that the Philip- pine Islands were somehow isolated from their neighbours. We have an image of pre-colonial Filipinos just minding their own business, perhaps doing a little trading with visiting Chinese merchants, when suddenly, the Spaniards show up, claim the is- lands for their empire and drag the natives into the modern world. This idea is probably a remnant of the co- lonial eras of Spain and the United States when the people really were cut off from their neighbours in South East Asia due to the protectionist trade practices of the two successive occu- piers. However, it wasn’t like that before the Spaniards arrived. Some of the places where pre-colonial Filipinos did business Filipinos in Southeast Asia Europeans had already met some other Tagalogs to also settle in China mentioned that Luzon traders Filipinos at least ten years before Ma- Malacca.

  • 5 Filipino Heroines Who Changed Philippine History
    REMARKABLE FILIPINO WOMEN HEROES LINK : https://cnnphilippines.com/life/culture/2017/06/07/5-filipino-heroines.html 5 Filipino heroines who changed Philippine history Manila (CNN Philippines Life) — When asked to give at least three names of Philippine heroes, who are the first people that come to mind? Of course Jose Rizal is a given as the national hero. And then there’s Andres Bonifacio, Emilio Aguinaldo, and Emilio Jacinto. Perhaps even throw in Antonio Luna thanks to successful historical film “Heneral Luna” (2015). The Philippines does not have an official list of national heroes. While there has been an attempt to come up with one, legislators deferred finalizing a list to avoid a deluge of proclamations and debates “involving historical controversies about heroes.” Still, textbooks and flashcards don’t hesitate to ingrain their names in our minds. It’s interesting how these historical figures all breed the same familiarity as superheroes, with students already knowing their names and achievements by heart by the time they reach high school. Thinking about the personalities, you can’t help but notice a pattern: they’re mostly men who fit into the typical hero mold of machismo and valor. While history books often devote entire chapters to the adventures and achievements of male heroes, our female heroines are often bunched into one section, treated as footnotes or afterthoughts despite also fighting for the nation’s freedom. In time for Independence Day, CNN Philippines Life lists five brave Filipino heroines whose actions deserve to be remembered. These women are more than just tokens for female representation.

Flores The criticism of Alice Guillermo presents an instance in which the encounter of the work of art resists a series of possible alienations even as it profoundly acknowledges the integrity of distinct form. The critic in this situation attentively dwells on the material of this form so that she may be able to explicate the ecology and the sociality without which it cannot concretize. The work of art, therefore, becomes the work of the world, extensively and deeply conceived. Such present-ness is vital as the critic faces the work in the world and tries to ramify that world beyond what is before her. This is one alienation that is calibrated. The work of art transpiring in the world becomes the work of the critic who lets it matter in language, freights it and leavens it with presence so that human potential unerringly turns plastic, or better still, animate: Against the cold stone, tomblike and silent, are the living glances, supplicating, questioning, challenging, or speaking—the eyes quick with feeling or the movements of thought, the mouths delicately shaping speech, the expressive gestures, and the bodies in their postures determined by the conditions of work and social circumstance.

    JHRS, Vol. 1, 2018 Kinematic Analysis of Sipa sa Mangis: Exploring the Science of the Art Yong Goh Noh1, Lorie B. Martin2 3 1Korea Institute of Sports Science (KISS) 2Office of Physical Education, Sports and Cultural Affairs, Mindanao State University-General Santos City 3Corresponding author, [email protected] Received: October 24, 2017; Accepted: December 12, 2017 Abstract The purpose of this study is to give a baseline information on the kinematic study of kicking, Sipa sa Mangis, and to determine what muscle activities are involved during that motion. Sipa sa Mangis is one of the traditional sports of Muslim people in Mindanao. Inside kick is the primary skill used in this sport. This study was conducted at Sports Biomechanics Laboratory Facility of Korea Institute of Sports Science, Seoul South Korea. To analyze the motion, Nineteen (19) High definition infrared motion cameras (Qualisys Oqus 701+19) were placed with the Ground Reaction Force Plate at the center of a captured volume of a 3m x 4m x 2m. (Kistler Type 9281B11). The coordination was calibrated using an L-frame and T-wand for 60 seconds at a sampling rate of 120 frames /sec. Each camera was synchronized using data cables while one master camera delivered the data to the main frame via a LAN cable. The data was analyzed and processed through Qualisys Track Manager. To determine the muscle activities while kicking, the surface Electromyography (EMG) fitted electrodes were placed at the 12 motor points of the leg muscles. All the three sets of data were analyzed using RMS and FIR frequency filters.

  • Critical Historical Consciousness & Decolonizing for Filipinx American
    Critical Historical Consciousness & Decolonizing for Filipinx American Undergraduates Dalya Amiel Perez A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2020 Reading Committee: Joe Lott, Chair Rick Bonus Kara Jackson Joy Williamson Lott Program Authorized to Offer Degree: College of Education 1 ©Copyright 2020 Dalya Amiel Perez 2 University of Washington Abstract Critical Historical Consciousness & Decolonizing for Filipinx American Undergraduates Dalya Amiel Perez Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Joe Lott College of Education This study seeks to understand how undergraduate Filipinx Americans develop historical consciousness and what the impacts of this are on their racial identity. The roots of Filipinx American historical erasure date back to colonization of the Philippines, both Spanish and U.S. occupations of the Philippines and continue to have a damaging effect on Filipinx Americans today (Leonardo & Matias, 2013). Evidence of this erasure is apparent in the absence of U.S. Philippine history from textbooks as well as the general absence of anything related to Filipinx Americans in contemporary pop culture or dominant narratives. Another form of erasure is in the invisiblity of Filipinx Americans under the racial category of Asian. This monolithic racial category obstructs possibilities to examine unique experiences, successes, and challenges Filipinx Americans as well as many other Asian groups face (Teranishi, 2010). In sum, the legacy of historical erasure, starting with colonization in the Philippines and the invizibilizing of Filipinos as Asian are factors that explain contemporary struggles for Filipinx Americans in higher educational contexts. My research seeks to examine the relationship between these phenomena and to explore what happens when Filipinx American undergraduates engage in learning critical colonial history.
