Book excerpt: Here is the journey of Filipino-Australian culture, a chapter of Australia?s multicultural history that little is known about. In searching for answers to fill some blank spaces in the Filipino-Australian heritage, this book delves into the wanderlust of its pioneers ? the early Manilamen whose ?diasporic? trajectories began with the Manila-Acapulco galleon trade.It traces the beginnings of their presence in the northern coastal region of Australia. It traces that heritage through intricate and sometimes blurry threads of history. The journey explores a people and a many-sided culture that every now and then emerges from the shadows of its benevolent conquistador. It explores the controversial issue of Filipino women?s exodus in the 1980s and reaches out to the fringes of the new millennium.

Download or read book The Filipino Migration Experience written by Mina Roces and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2021-10-15 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Filipino Migration Experience introduces a new dimension to the usual depiction of migrants as disenfranchised workers or marginal ethnic groups. Mina Roces suggests alternative ways of conceptualizing Filipino migrantsas critics of the family and cultural constructions of sexuality, as consumers and investors, as philanthropists, as activists, and, as historians. They have been able to transform fundamental social institutions and well-entrenched traditional norms, as well as alter the business, economic and cultural landscapes of both the homeland and the host countries to which they have migrated. Mina Roces tells the story of the Filipino migration experience from the perspective of the migrants themselves, tapping into hitherto underused primary sources from the "migrant archives" and more than 70 interviews. Bringing the fields of Filipino migration studies and Filipina/o/x American studies together, this book analyzes some of the areas where Filipino migrants have forever changed the status quo.

Download or read book Racism and Resistance among the Filipino Diaspora written by Kristine Aquino and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-01 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filipino migrants constitute one of the largest global diasporas today. In Australia, Filipino settlement is markedly framed by the country’s on-going nation-building project that continues to racialise immigrants and delineate the possibilities and limits of belonging to the national community. This book explores the ways in which Filipino migrants in Australia experience, understand and negotiate racism in their everyday lives. In particular, it explores the notion of everyday anti-racism – the strategies individuals deploy to manage racism in their day to day lives. Through case studies based on extensive fieldwork the author shares ethnographic observation and interview material that demonstrate the ways in which Filipinos are racially constituted in Australian society and are subject to everyday racisms that criss-cross different modes of power and domination. Drawing on theoretical approaches in critical race scholarship and the sociology of everyday life, this book illuminates the operation of racism in a multicultural society that persists insidiously in exchanges across a range of public and private spaces. More importantly, it explores the quotidian ways in which ‘victims’ of racism cope with routine racialised domination, an area underdeveloped in anti-racism research that has tended to focus on institutional anti-racism politics. Shedding light on a neglected corner of the global Filipino diaspora and highlighting the complexity of lived experiences in translocal and transnational social fields, this book will be of interest to academics in the field of diaspora and migration studies, the study of race and racism and ethnic minorities, with particular reference to the Asian diaspora.

Download or read book Sexualised Citizenship written by Shirlita Africa Espinosa and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-08-12 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers the intersections of race, gender and class in multicultural Australia through the lens of migration to the country. Focusing on Philippines-born migration, it presents the profile and history of this minority group through an examination of their print material culture over the last 40 years. Particularly, it examines the growth of the production of Filipino cultural identity and the politics of community building in relation to the sexualisation of their acquired citizenship. Given the promotion of Australia as a modern, multicultural, Western nation in the Asia-Pacific region, the book questions the bases on which this claim stands using the example of Filipino settlement in Australia. Considering the social contradictions that continue to shape multicultural politics in Australia, it examines how the community makes sense of its migration through print material culture. The book analyses the community’s responses to their minoritisation to understand how Filipino-Australian migration— the affective and economic appropriation of women’s labour—is instructive of the social reality of millions in the global diaspora today. Based on archival and ethnographic research, this text straddles the interdisciplinary fields of gender and cultural studies, and is a key read for all scholars of Asian and Australian area studies.

Download or read book The Calamansi Story written by Fides Mae Santos and published by . This book was released on 2023-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filipino migrants are the fifth largest migrant group in Australia. Despite this significant presence, their experiences have rarely received the 'mainstream' spotlight, and their stories are seldom told through their own voices. This community-led publication brings together life histories and personal migration experiences of everyday first and second-generation Filipino migrants. It highlights their spirit, strength, resilience, and important social and economic contributions to Australia. Uniquely, these stories are told through encounters with calamansi - a small, sour and sweet lime, indigenous to the Philippines. The Calamansi Story invites readers to use food as an everyday lens to understand the experience of Filipinos as migrants in Australia. Focusing creative stories, poetry, essays, songs, recipes and artwork on the humble calamansi, the writers and artists featured in this book use food, explicitly and inexplicitly, as a vehicle to navigate settlement, forge senses of belonging, and interrogate the role food plays in the politics of race and multiculturalism in Australia. Maasim (sour) or matamis (sweet), these stories offer a taste of hope, possibility, and action.thecalamansistory.com

Download or read book A Concise History of Australia written by Stuart Macintyre and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-29 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australia is the last continent to be settled by Europeans, but it also sustains a people and a culture tens of thousands years old. For much of the past 200 years the newcomers have sought to replace the old with the new. This book tells how they imposed themselves on the land, and brought technology, institutions and ideas to make it their own. It relates the advance from penal colony to a prosperous free nation and illustrates how, as a nation created by waves of newcomers, the search for binding traditions was long frustrated by the feeling of rootlessness, until it came to terms with its origins. The third edition of this acclaimed book recounts the key factors - social, economic and political - that have shaped modern-day Australia. It covers the rise and fall of the Howard government, the 2007 election and the apology to the stolen generation. More than ever before, Australians draw on the past to understand their future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This thesis tracks the emergence of a specific mestiza/o whiteness through the Philippines' colonial relationship with Spain, as well as the Philippines' imperial connection with the United States of America (US). The thesis also examines how this colonial and imperial history affects contemporary relations, such as the Philippines' relations with Australia... The thesis draws in key ideas expressed by Whiteness Studies, as well as the theoretical concepts of sometechnics, biopolitics and governmentality. From this, the thesis engages with the aforementioned theories to formulate a new conept, mestiza/o whiteness, which considers the historical links between the technologies of Spanish colonialism and US imperialism. Moreover, the concept of mestiza/o whiteness assesses how these colonial and imperial technologies frame Philippine skin-bleaching practices, the use of different languages, discourses of bilateral relations, secularism, development and the movement of Filipino and Australian bodies between and within the two nations." -- abstract.

Download or read book Re-Imagining Australia written by Deborah Ruiz Wall and published by . This book was released on 2016-09-29 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book calls for a re-imagining of Australia by revisiting the history of its relations with its Indigenous inhabitants and Asian neighbours in remote parts of Northern and Western Australia during pre-Federation times. We have compiled stories told by Australian Indigenous descendants of Filipino pearl divers in the nineteenth century that, several generations later, reveal the descendants' more nuanced and diverse approaches to identity taking. Their stories dating from a period of global migration and trade were underpinned by intersections of colonial cultural assertion, foreign missionary endeavours, and early infrastructure economic development before British Australia and Spanish Philippines became independent nations. Their forebears, then collectively called Manilamen during the pearling industry boom in the 1880s, faced challenges to obtaining equal rights with British subjects and securing stable employment and settlement so that some, even after living in the country for decades with their Indigenous families, were disenfranchised and treated as 'aliens'. Indigenous and Asian people experienced the effects of laws that reinforced hierarchies based on race. These laws were indicative of the state's effort to define and assert its sovereignty in times that marked Australia's emergence into nationhood, gradually incorporating people entering the country from diverse cultural backgrounds. The stories of Manilamen descendants demonstrate a more intimate connection between Indigenous Australians and Asians than is presently recognised.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowhere can we appreciate so easily the intertwined nature of the triple forces of knowledge accumulation--capital, colonial, and racial--than in the imperial museum, where the objects of accumulation remain materially, visibly preserved. Sarita See maintains that it is this material collection of artifacts associated with the racial, colonial primitive that forms the foundation of American knowledge production. The Filipino Primitive takes Karl Marx's concept of "primitive accumulation," usually conceived of as an economic process for the acquisition of land and the extraction of labor, and argues that we also must understand it as a project of knowledge accumulation. Taking us through the Philippine collections at the University of Michigan Natural History Museum and the Frank Murphy Memorial Museum, also in Michigan, See reveals these exhibits as both allegory and real case of the primitive accumulation subtending imperial American knowledge, just as the extraction of Filipino labor contributes to American capitalist colonialism. With this understanding of the Filipino foundations of the development of an American accumulative drive toward power and knowledge, we can appreciate the value of Filipino American cultural producers like Carlos Bulosan, Stephanie Syjuco, and Ma-Yi Theater Company who have created incisive parodies of an accumulative epistemology, even as they articulate powerful alternative, anti-accumulative social ecologies.
