October is Filipino American History Month #FAHM. The first Filipinos arrived in the United States at what is now Morro Bay, California on October 18, 1587. Filipino Americans played a pivotal role in the labor movement, particularly in the fight for agricultural workers' rights. Activists like Larry Itliong worked alongside Mexican-American leaders such as Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta to form the United Farm Workers (UFW) union in the 1960s. We take this time to honor the incredible contributions of Filipino Americans to the rich tapestry of American history and culture. Join us in celebrating their achievements, resilience, and diverse stories.
