Laban

Members of the Filipino Intercollegiate Networking Dialogue (FIND) network came together to the University of Maryland for their Spring Conference on February 27th, 2010. The theme for the conference was "Laban" (the Tagalog word for “to Fight”), which was aimed towards shedding light into the past struggles from when Pilipinos first came to the United States, the struggles that we face today, and how to combat these issues. The conference was split up into three sessions that were comprised of three different workshops each, which allowed the delegates to pick and learn about subjects they may be interested in.

People Power RevolutionAsk a Generation Y or Z Pilipino about the People Power Revolution, they’ll probably tell you something straight out of Wikipedia.
Ask an older Pilipino about the People Power Revolution though, and they’ll tell you more than a mouse-clicking journey that Wikipedia can ever tell you.
“You know the history, but you don’t know the feeling,” my dad, Gabriel Fernandez Jr., told me.
Most of us don’t even know the history of the People Power Revolution. But should we?
