Filipino Representation in Media and Colonial Mentality among Second-Generation Filipino Immigrants in North America Abando, Gabrielle
Abstract
The Philippines is an infinitely diverse country with a rich precolonial and postcolonial history. Notably, though, the several centuries of colonization inevitably left their indelible mark on the Philippines in things like beef caldereta, champorado, and spamsilog. As benign as those examples might be, colonialism had more insidious effects, most notably affecting the psychology of the local population. This effect, more generally referred to as a colonial mentality, has impacted consequential aspects of life including standards of beauty, social stratification that prizes Whiteness, migratory aspirations, and Western idealization. In considering these issues, Gabrielle presents a research proposal to address a greatly important question: To what extent do second-generation North American Filipino diaspora identify with media about Filipinos and how does this facilitate distance or proximity to their Filipino ethnic identities?
