Unsung hero, forgotten, overlooked – these are common descriptors of Larry Itliong and his significant contributions to the American Farm Labor Revolution. Carmina and Patch join the growing voices seeking to remedy this tragic oversight by honoring Larry in this episode. Learn why, during every Filipino American History Month, we must commemorate our ancestors’ contributions to the fabric of this great nation. Finally, learn why it is important to call it Filipino-American HISTORY (and not “Heritage”) Month.
