Abstract:
The intent of this research project is to recognize the questions I had as a
youth looking for my Filipino American identity and to begin a conversation
about how much there is to know about Filipino American history. This research
is intended to as an introduction to nourish the curiosities to of those with a
similar disposition. I also intend it to be a resource to explain the events and
circumstances that caused a Filipino American population to exist in the Bay
Area.
