a reflection. a reminder. this body does not survive by accident #ancestors #diasporaheart #diasporalove #identity #ilokano #TPOC #QTPOC shoutout to the folx and femmes who keep these reminders intact, ingrained, internalized in opposition to systems and paradigms that force us to reinscribe boundaries around the potentialities our ancestors hope, dream and nurture for us

Today I cried in Pilipino class.

One of the teachers began with, “We are here to reclaim the tongue that’s been denied us.” “We are diaspora, but it’s not our fault, it’s history’s fault.” “This is how colonization works. But you can still learn. You will learn because you desire to, deep in your soul.”

Tonight I felt at home, finally. I shared and listened to each person’s story of colonization. We celebrated the spirit , the joy, the resistance of the filipino people.

No one can deny me my filipina identity, though they often try to. Because being Pinaya gives me greater pride and clarity than anything else ever has.

Decolonization is my father and i exchanging “mahal kita”s for the first time in my life. Decolonization is the reconciliation between father and daughter occurring only when they learn and embrace their pinay heritage.

Decolonization is finding your community !

Can I have you?

No you can’t sorry. I want to share myself with someone, not give myself.
