Title
Filipinos in San Francisco - Paperback
by Dan Gonzales (Author), Filipino Amer Nat Hist Soc (A) (Author), Manilatown Heritage Foundatio (A) (Author)
Tens of thousands of Filipinos who have lived, worked, and raised families for over five generations in this unique city stake their rightful claim to more than a century of shared history in San Francisco. The photographs herein attest to the early arrivals, who came as merchant mariners, businesspeople, scholars, and musicians, as well as agricultural and domestic workers. But their story has often been ignored, told incompletely by others, and edited too selectively by many. The Filipino American experience both epitomizes and defies the traditional immigrant storyline, and these pictures honestly and respectfully document the fruits of their labors, the products of their perseverance, and, at times, their resistance to social exclusion and economic suppression.
Author Biography
The Filipino American National Historical Society, Manilatown Heritage Foundation, and Pin@y Educational Partnership at San Francisco State University are grateful for this opportunity to share their history in this pictorial history book. They earnestly hope that you enjoy these photographs and learn from them as well.
