Absolutely not. There is little benefit to lining the pockets of others while unions dont stick up for their own employees (former union family) and go on to line the pockets of politicians. And Latinos have controlled the narrative regarding CA labor efforts for decades, was white supremacy to blame for their neglect of Itliong?
@@Joe-pc3hs so instead of changing what’s going on inside the Union, you didn’t? Changing anything is not a spectators sport. You want something to change, you have to be in there to change it just like him. Unions are not perfect but you have to have the right people in the ranks to make it affective just like in politics, etc
@@renkanazawabluedot Yeah, change an entity that not only has grown beyond worker control, but also thats created a bureaucracy and support system to shield itself, all by the hand of those who the unions are trying to keep quiet? Get real. Funny that was the only point you could address. I bet you wouldnt blame Itliong for not holding the UFW to task for ignoring Filipino workers after their spotlight.
4pm Sacramento, Ca I love the history of your work for Filipinos in the US. It is especially important for immigrants from the Philippines who have no idea of Filipino American history. Thanks and continue your great work and journey.
This is very inspiring and crucial to fellowship with my biological parents are unwed immigrants. My biological grandpa is documented from Santo Domingo ilocos Sur in the Philippines. They were displaced victimized slandered detained illegally and taken away to work on the plantation in Waipahu Hawaii where my mom attended school. I was born in Maui Hawaii by a midwife and placed in a horrible foster care folks system and teased confused me constantly stalking exploiters. I reconnected with my biological mother in San Diego California and was jeopardized by my spouse's dislike and discrimination against her heritage our estranged relationship is a horrible day to recover from.
I'm watching a UA-cam channel on life style in the Philippines areas. The UA-cam video shows many people who value the custom of the Filipino ancestors heritage. This is incredible information on indigenous people of the Philippines area where the life is documented to be honest. I'm enjoying the memories cherished of my ancestors heritage
The disparity of course poverty is documented in truth history of my ancestors heritage familia in the Philippines area. I'm assuming that matters cause my biological mother has been indoctrinated and assimilation to fellowship with the agenda of the USA government authority. I'm hopeful for my overall reconnect with the Philippines people
HISTORY FOR GENUINE PROSPERITY. I had in my end notes for this. Thanks again. I hope Pampanga know they had people like Manong Larry. At first, his surname and middle name sound like the surnames of some people here in my province, it's just that oftentimes, I feel ostracized from the modern lowlanders because I belong to a highland tribe - or maybe it was just me and my fam. Hope more people know that we are actually more intertwined...Idk how to say that better
Unfortunately, popular Hollywood movies about this had minimized the importance of Filipino manongs during the labor strike in California WHILE overemphasizing the Mexican players. Well not surprising the popular movies were directed by Mexican directors. 😑
Mi Abuelo was a hired farmworker way before that time, in the 1920's. I just found a few photos from than , boy was it hard and scary. Happily he found a steady job with the railroad by 1929
Good job on this vid Kirby! 👏👏👏👏👏 I hope makagawa ka mu naman tungkul kang Pedro Calosa, a leader of the Tayug Uprising 1931(?), a migrant worker and also part of the striking workers in Hawaii in 1925(?). Luid ka!
Kirby, Salamat for providing this informative video about our history, the Grape Strike, and Larry Itliong. Keep Up the Fire, Manchu. Strong to Endure. Scouts Out. AATW RLTW.
Andre Sibayan's illustration the biographical book Journey For Justice is an injustiace to the historical stature Larry Itlion (and Vera Cruz) deserves, because of how Sibayan's illustration of Chavez in front of Itliong and Vera Cruz sadly and ironically mirrors the way the book's subject was historically forgotten, intentionally ignored by Chavez' father, and undervalued in favor of Chavez. I wish the Philippine community, historians, and/or the Philippine activist leaders had told their story much sooner, and I prefer to buy any other book on Itliong other than Journey For Justice because of the illustration.
Frustrating fact when Philippines and Filipinos are always relegated to the footnote of world history and the history of other countries like we are not that important despite our resilience and sacrifices. 🙄
so any one who is reading this comment answer this question if pre colonial philippines was united under the banner of the idiginous people and then eventually make a Standing army what would their soilders be called
As a mestizo American of Iloko descent, this is such treasured history I just learned. Time to spread it to other Filipinos here in Virginia. 😂
Spread our ancestral stories, Manong/Manang (Big Brother/Sister)!
He exist before Cesar Chavez..people don’t know much about it. Everyone should join a union

Ps. will be reading 3 articles from this vidyeow
Manong Larry was a badass! Forgotten but not by Fil-Ams in California ✊🏼
Great video. I’ve visited Larry Itliong park in Los Angeles. I believe it’s in Filipinotown.
Unfortunately, popular Hollywood movies about this had minimized the importance of Filipino manongs during the labor strike in California WHILE overemphasizing the Mexican players. Well not surprising the popular movies were directed by Mexican directors. 😑
My grand parents were farm workers at that time and my grandmother was friends with Chavez for many years.
Kuya Kirby! Thanks for the video!

idol manong larry
Are you related to atom?
I knew Larry Itliong Struggles during 1970’s
Manong Larry Itliong got screwed out of his rightful place in American history. Filipino's need to organize and fix this.
so any one who is reading this comment answer this question if pre colonial philippines was united under the banner of the idiginous people and then eventually make a Standing army what would their soilders be called
Answer it yourself 😂
So what are the idiginous pre colonial filipino names
He actually made a video about this.
@@majorlazor5058 well yes but i want to know more indigionus pre colonial filipino names
@@benjamingamez1718 got it. I wonder too
