Many questions may come to mind during this Pilipino American History Month. Perhaps one of the most interesting questions raised would be, "When exactly did Pilipino American history begin?" Surprisingly, Pilipino American history began long before the first English settlement of Jamestown (1607) was established. Pilipinos were the first Asians to cross the Pacific Ocean in 1587--twenty years before Jamestown was established.
