Ep. 105: Little Manila Rising For All; Exec. Dir.Dillon Delvo with Emil Guillermo
<p>Dillon Delvo, executive director of Little Manila Rising, talks to Emil Guillermo about how the Stockton non-profit has expanded its mission to do more and to help more people in South Stockton. From preserving Filipino American history and historic buildings, the LMR's mission now includes public health initiatives and environmental efforts in community air monitoring. Beyond that, the non-profit has its eyes on owning and developing land and projects to benefit the broader South Stockton community. Delvo said Little Manila Rising just wants to do what other groups are doing around the state, go beyond marginalization to have a say in the future development of their community by accessing power and funds previously denied them.</p> <p>Listen to the Emil Amok's Takeout Live, M-F 2pm Pacific live, on Facebook/emilguillermo.media; Emil Guillermo YouTube channel; <a href="mailto:Twitter@emilamok;">Twitter@emilamok;</a> Recordings on <a href="http://www.amok.com">www.amok.com</a></p> <p> </p> <p> </p>

Ep. 104: Asian American Filipinos' Continuing Trauma Over the U.S. Colonization of the Philippines
<p>In California, 2022 brings new requirements for ethnic studies at the community college and high school levels. It could become a model for schools around the country. It's too late for one Oakland student who has since graduated and gone to Harvard. But even there, Eleanor V.Wikstrom has found learning about her Filipino history has not been easy. There are no Tagalog or Pilipino language classes taught there. And Filipino American history is an afterthought, despite the role the U.S. played in the colonization of the country. In her recent essay in the Harvard Crimson, Wikstrom wrote about the part Harvard played in the Philippines. She went deep into the stacks at the Pusey Library and uncovered some of the open secrets about how Harvard and American higher ed elites played a role in giving Filipinos not only English, but their own history in a textbook written from a white academic perspective. Wikstrom's journey of discovery reminded me of my own experience 40 years ago as a young Filipino American at Harvard, trying to put together the history we were never meant to see.</p> <p>See more of my columns at <a href= "http://www.aaldef.org/blog">www.aaldef.org/blog</a>.</p> <p>See/hear Emil Amok's Takeout--The Livestream, M-F, 2p Pacfic on Facebook @emilguillermo.media; YouTube; Twitter @emilamok; and recorded on <a href="http://www.amok.com">www.amok.com</a></p> <p>See Eleanor Wikstrom's article in the <a href= "https://api.thecrimson.com/article/2021/12/13/wikstrom-scars-of-empire/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harvard Crimson.</a></p>

Ep. 103: Environmental Justice Warriors: Little Manila Rising's Matt Holmes
<p>Note: See Index below for quick access</p> <p>Little Manila Rising, a community non-profit in Stockton, Calif., is taking an aggressive stand to protect its Filipino American community from environmental racism. Matt Holmes heads up the environmental effort and talks about a new project with UC Merced to make sure the air in Stockton and the valley is monitored. He also talks about the ways the pollution from the freeways and port is being mitigated. The situation is dire, Stockton has one of the worst air pollution profiles in the state, and not coincidentally, the worst asthma rates in California, as well. This is Part 4 of an ongoing look at how Little Manila Rising is evolving to serve its community and to not give up on Stockton.</p> <p>This is the podcast of Emil Amok's Takeout.
