🇵🇭 As an immigrant, Filipino American History Month means remembering that I did not arrive here empty-handed.

I came carrying songs.

I came carrying the language of my elders, the stories of a country oceans away, the rhythms I learned before I even knew to call them heritage. I came carrying Kundiman, the songs of my childhood, the voices of those who came before me—and the responsibility of making sure they are not forgotten.

As an immigrant artist, I have learned that sometimes home is something you rebuild through art.

Every time I sing, I am stitching a little piece of the Philippines into the fabric of where I am now. Every stage becomes a crossing of oceans. Every song becomes a way of saying: we were here. We are here. We are still becoming.

Filipino American history is not only a story of migration. It is a story of survival, labor, resistance, longing, and imagination. It is the story of people who crossed oceans and still found ways to bring home with them.

This month, I honor those who carried the torch before me.

And I keep singing— to remember where I came from, and to make sure the light reaches whoever comes next.
