  • THE PHILIPPINES, 1942-1944 James Kelly Morningstar, Doctor of History
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: WAR AND RESISTANCE: THE PHILIPPINES, 1942-1944 James Kelly Morningstar, Doctor of History, 2018 Dissertation directed by: Professor Jon T. Sumida, History Department What happened in the Philippine Islands between the surrender of Allied forces in May 1942 and MacArthur’s return in October 1944? Existing historiography is fragmentary and incomplete. Memoirs suffer from limited points of view and personal biases. No academic study has examined the Filipino resistance with a critical and interdisciplinary approach. No comprehensive narrative has yet captured the fighting by 260,000 guerrillas in 277 units across the archipelago. This dissertation begins with the political, economic, social and cultural history of Philippine guerrilla warfare. The diverse Islands connected only through kinship networks. The Americans reluctantly held the Islands against rising Japanese imperial interests and Filipino desires for independence and social justice. World War II revealed the inadequacy of MacArthur’s plans to defend the Islands. The General tepidly prepared for guerrilla operations while Filipinos spontaneously rose in armed resistance. After his departure, the chaotic mix of guerrilla groups were left on their own to battle the Japanese and each other. While guerrilla leaders vied for local power, several obtained radios to contact MacArthur and his headquarters sent submarine-delivered agents with supplies and radios that tie these groups into a united framework. MacArthur’s promise to return kept the resistance alive and dependent on the United States. The repercussions for social revolution would be fatal but the Filipinos’ shared sacrifice revitalized national consciousness and created a sense of deserved nationhood. The guerrillas played a key role in enabling MacArthur’s return.

    ISSN 2423-2912 (Print), ISSN 2423-2920 (Online) cirss commentaries VOL. IV, NO. 11 MAY 2017 WHY SHOULD FILIPINOS CARE ABOUT THE FRENCH PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION? by Uriel N. Galace Last April 23, the French people cast their ballots in the first round of France’s elections in what is considered one of its most consequential presidential races in recent memory. Emmanuel Macron, an independent candidate, came out on top with 24 percent of the vote, followed by Marine Le Pen from the far-right National Front who finished with 21 percent. The two are set to square off in the runoff on May 7 to determine the ultimate winner. The result was considered a rebuke by French voters of the country’s two establishment political parties—the Socialists on the left and the Republicans on the right—who had traditionally held power over France throughout the past half century. More than just deciding who will be France’s next leader, however, this election is also considered a referendum on the European Union (EU). The far-right candidate Le Pen is vociferously opposed to the EU and has promised to pull France out of the regional bloc. Her opponent, Macron, holds the opposite view, strongly favoring greater regional integration for France into Europe. So why should Filipinos care about the French Presidential Election? The outcome of this election will not only determine who will be the next president of France, it could also decide the fate of the EU, and by extension, the global economy at large. En Marche! (Forward!) Emmanuel Macron, a 39-year old investment banker with no experience in elected office and who is married to his high school teacher, is the overwhelming favorite to capture the presidency in the runoff.

Santana May 8th, 2020 California State University Monterey Bay 1 Introduction Religion has helped many immigrants establish themselves in their new surroundings in the United States (U.S.) and on their journey north from Mexico across the US-Mexican border (Vásquez and Knott 2014). They look to their God and then to their Mexican Folk Saints, such as La Santa Muerte and Jesus Malverde, for protection and strength. This case study focuses on how religion— in particular Folk Saints such as La Santa Muerte and Jesus Malverde— can give solace and hope to Mexican migrants, mostly Catholics, when they cross the border into the U.S, and also after they settle in the U.S.

  • Akla Stands with Asian American and Pacific Islander (AA/PI) and Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) Communities of Alaska
    ALASKA LIBRARY ASSOCIATION PO BOX 81084, FAIRBANKS, AK 99708 WWW.AKLA.ORG WWWWWW.AKLA.ORG AkLA stands with Asian American and Pacific Islander (AA/PI) and Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) Communities of Alaska The Alaska Library Association stands with library workers, patrons, and the communities we serve, who are discriminated against and are subject to violence based on their race or ethnicity. We do this in support of our colleagues in the Asian Pacific American Librarians Association (APALA “Statement Against Anti-Asian Violence”) and the Black Caucus of The American Library Association (BCALA “Statement Condemning Increased Violence and Racism Towards Black Americans and People of Color”). To this day, many Alaskans are living with trauma resulting from America’s legacy of cultural erasure and racism. In particular, Alaska Natives have suffered and continue to suffer. Despite brave and tireless advocacy by individuals and organizations, institutional racism and systems of oppression remain to this day, resisting growing efforts to tear them down. Many Asian American and Pacific Islander, Black, Indigenous and other People of Color make Alaska their home today. The city of Anchorage boasts the three most ethno-racially diverse neighborhoods in the country1. AA/PI and BIPOC people represent ~42% of Alaska’s total population and are integral to our libraries and the communities we serve (U.S. Census Quick Facts Alaska). As of 2019, 7.9 percent of Alaskans reported Asian or Pacific Islander descent and Alaska Economic Trends (2014) reported that, “people of Asian and Pacific Islander descent form the fastest-growing racial group in Alaska, expanding by 60 percent between 2000 and 2010 — a gain of more than 17,000 people.” Libraries, at their core value, are communities where all are welcome.

  • Popular Religion and Festivals
    12 Popular Religion and Festivals The introduction of Roman Catholicism to the New World was part of the colonizing policy of both the Spanish and the Portuguese, but on Latin American soil Christian beliefs and practices came into contact with those of the native Amerindian peoples, and later with those brought by enslaved Africans and their descendants. Latin American Catholicism has consequently absorbed elements of pre-Columbian reli- gious beliefs and practices, giving rise to what is known as “popular” or “folk” Catholicism. Popular Catholicism has blended elements of differ- ent religions, yet it is still a recognizable mutation of traditional Roman Catholicism. In Mexico, for example, Catholic saints are matched up with pre-Columbian deities, as are Christian festivals with indigenous ones. Similarly, popular religion in the Andean countries must be under- stood in its historical and cultural context, since it is heavily influenced by the experience of conquest and the persistence of indigenous beliefs under a Christian guise. In recent years, Catholicism in Latin America has also become synony- mous with Liberation Theology, with its commitment to social change and improvement of the lot of marginal sectors. This radical theology was announced at Medellín, Colombia, in 1968 with a formal declaration of the Church’s identification with the poor. The doctrine’s complexity and diversity make it difficult to define, but the influence of Marxism is apparent, along with that of pioneering social reformers and educators such as the Brazilian Paulo Freire. Liberation Theology’s most famous advocate is the Peruvian priest Gustavo Gutiérrez, whose humble origins sharpened his awareness of social problems.

    立正大学心理学研究所紀要 第８号 (2010) Filipino Personality Traits and Values for Social Support: FOW as human resources for work life balance in Japan (1) Isamu SAITO＊１ Taiko IMAMURA＊１ Mariko MIYAGI＊２ Abstract: The purpose of thisstudy is to help contribute to solving nursing care problems in Japan by studying the characteristics, personality traits and values of the Filipino people. Filipinos work as nurses and caregivers over- seas, serving to be the largest supplier of human resources relating to social support. Literary documents andbooks were analyzed to gather concrete examples of Filipino personality traits and values. Interview surveys were also conducted. The ten most depicted traits were the following: pakikisama, hiya, utang na loob, close family ties, bahala na, amor propio, bayanihan, hospitality, ningas cogon, and respect for elders. These traits are analyzed from a social psychological viewpoint. Keywords:FOW, Filipino personal traits, work life balance, caregivers INTRODUCTION Thisstudy is a part of a social psychology research to compare work life balance on an interna- tional basis, and to consider international cooperation of social support. In Japan, where the birth- rate is decreasing and the population is aging rapidly, the care for theelderly is an extremely urgent socialissue. One of the greatest issues of nursing care is, who is to be the caregiver. Demog- raphically, low birthrate and rapid aging inevitably mean the rapid increase of agedpopulation re- quiring nursing care, and the sharpdecrease of young caregivers. Signs of this problem can already be seen, as evennow there are many cases when an agedperson musttake care of each other. Japan s problem of nursing care will becomeeven more serious in the coming years.

Was there no way to simplify things in this continent so that suffering would be minimized? Was there not common denominator on which we could all meet? I was angry and confused and wondered if I would ever understand this paradox?”1 “It was a planless life, hopeless, and without direction. I was merely living from day to day: yesterday seemed long ago and tomorrow was too far away. It was today that I lived for aimlessly, this hour-this moment.”2 -Carlos Bulosan, America is in the Heart Introduction Carlos Bulosan was a Filipino immigrant living in the United States beginning in the 1930s.
