Passing the torch to the next KAbinet

The 2012-2013 Beta Chapter KAbinet and Active Sisters definitely held it down the past year - keeping traditions, overcoming challenges, and introducing new projects. I am definitely proud to have been a part of this amazing group of womyn doing work in our community.

A week from today, a new group of our sisters will come together and make plans for the new year at our annual Summer Retreat. These ladies have so many great ideas and all the passion to make them beautiful realities. So without further ado, we pass the torch and I introduce to you the sisters elected to our 2013-2014 Beta Chapter KAbinet:

The use of ‘Pilipino,’ as my friend and the academic Theo Gonzalves, associate professor and department chair of the American Studies Department at the University of Maryland Baltimore County, explains, was both an act of defiance and a choice.

Yes, it was partly based on the debate of whether there is or isn’t an ‘F’ in the Filipino alphabet.

But for Filipino Americans, it was a way of choosing, affirming and celebrating their Filipinoness, or Pilipinoness.

After all, the Filipino Americans argued, one can deconstruct ‘Pilipino’ into ‘pili,’ or ‘to choose,’ and ‘pino,’ or ‘fine.’

In other words, “a fine choice,” Theo says.

When we remember our forefathers today, let’s not forget that women played a role in building our country too! Check out this link that highlights a few women and how they helped the United States of America.

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY! :)

Celebrate the independence of our country and continue to hope for its never-ending progress in letting its people be completely free.

During our meeting tonight, we all learned and shared a little bit about some of the different Ethnic groups in the naturally diverse Philippines. This website is just one source where our sister Chelsea Dang (Nu Class) was inspired to bring this lesson to our Active Kappa Meeting.

It's important to realize that there is more to the Philippines and its people than what you know. They are a diverse people with different languages, dialects, traditions, and histories.
