BROWN BABY BOOMERS: GROWING UP FILIPINO IN VALLEJO,”

This 20-30 minute documentary will include interviews by some of Vallejo’s finest residents to produce a film that documents the history of Filipino-Americans growing up in a city that housed Filipino immigrants from early as World War II. With Filipinos being the second largest Asian group in the United States, the focus is on the struggles ad hardships that were ensued in growing up in Vallejo. Some of these struggles included racism, segregation, and the inability to assimilate into American culture.
