This Filipino American History Month, I hope you check out the Mana exhibit at the Anchorage Museum starting on October 28. The exhibit features a collection of portraits and stories of Filipino elders from Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, and Kodiak. I was brought on the Mana content team and had the honor of writing some of the bios. I teared up while listening to all of the interviews to write their stories, and I'd love to be able to share them with all of you.
