What I’ve Leaned:
- A member of the Black Eyed Pea’s is filipino and a lot of their songs are inspired by his culture. (Where is the love?, the APL song, bebot)
- Filipino’s were very successful boxers in America in early 20th Century.
- Filipino Americans are prevalent in the comic illustration industry – some went to work for Marvel Comics.
- Successful Filipino Comedians make fun of their culture and use their platform to discuss racial issues within their culture. (Vic’s vapor rub, not going to hospital, Filipino accent)
