I’m half-Filipino and was raised mostly American. I thought it might be interesting to show you what Filipino stuff I have in my household. But then I also thought it would be interesting to see what people online think is stuff that you might find in a Filipino household.

So I'm taking a look at what you might find in other Filipino household and showing you what Filipino stuff I have in mine.

What good stuff am I missing?

I've seen a wide range of comments on what makes a person a "Filipino." Some say it is citizenship along with knowing the culture and language. Others say it is the "one-drop rule"--as long as you have at least one drop of Filipino blood, you are Filipino. Others say it is something in between.

In my view, part of the disparity in these types of comments comes from the difficulty associated with defining race, nationality, and ethnicity.

In this episode of the Part Filipino Podcast, I'm taking that issue head-on!

I will address the issues I ran into trying to find the answer to the question "Is Filipino a race?"

I will also share the definitions of race, nationality, citizenship, and ethnicity that I'm happy with.

I'll then chart out how "Filipino" fits within these definitions.

Finally, I share how this chart and an understanding of these categories of Filipino-ness can help someone who is exploring their Filipino identity (like me!)

My mom sent me a link to a YouTube channel called The Filipino Story Studio. The goal of that channel is to uplift the global Filipino nation. The bedrock of the effort is a six-episode animated series that celebrates the beauty, the genius, and the spirit of the Filipino.

In this episode of the Part Filipino Podcast, I review the first video in this series on "What it means to be Filipino."

So, spoiler alert, I recommend that you watch the original video with The Filipino Story Studio before you get to my thoughts and comments. Here is a link to their video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/RdClMXrQlTM?si=h2shvSX7yrc0DHW7.

I will discuss the following issues:

00:00 - Why I feel called back to learn about the Philippines.

01:36 - My heritage and background.

04:15 - How Pleasant Grove, Utah is connected to the Philippines.

09:52 - What happened to the Manila Churchhouse in Pleasant Grove.

13:17 - Intro to the Review of “What it Means to be Filipino.”

15:24 - Begin Review and the 3 Bs of Filipino Culture.

17:16 - On language, ethnicity, and archipelago unity.

22:13 - The size of the Filipino Diaspora.

22:46 - The Austronesians and technological advancements.

25:04 - The Balangay (Filipino boats) and their relevance to Filipino Culture.

28:24 - Bayanihan: comments, questions, and concerns.

31:37 - What being Filipino means to me (and my son).
