Filipinx Kwentuhan: Equity Through Art Series

Every culture has a storytelling tradition. In the Filipinx diaspora, kwentuhan (storytelling) is a way of remembering and honoring ancestors, preserving histories, and reconnecting with kapwa. It has also provided a path to resisting invisibility. From the time the first Filipinos landed in California in 1587 to the time they began settling in San Mateo County in the 1920s, storytelling has always been part of the fabric of the community's lived experience. Equity Through Art Series' "Filipinx Kwentuhan" features unique stories of resilience, healing and bayanihan in the Filipinx community in San Mateo County. The webinar panel is moderated by Aileen Cassinetto, San Mateo County Poet Laureate, and features Matthew Abaya, Filmmaker; Stephanie Balon, Co-Chair of the BHRS Filipino Mental Health Initiative; Joanne Boston, events producer with a focus on community art and culture; Carly Burton, Jefferson High school Student and filmmaker; and Rosie Tejada, President of the Jefferson Union High School District Board of Trustees. The Equity through Art Series, a partnership between the County Library, Health BHRS Office of Diversity and Equity, and the Chief Equity Officer at the County of San Mateo, takes us on a journey to understand the experiences of Black, Indigenous, Communities of Color, through their voices and stories.
