"But we don't have to live like this." Generational Responsibilities is what we pass down to the younger generations of Filipin@s. An example would be like traditional filipino receipes or standards that a typical filipino abides. My example would be since i don't speak Tagalog, i learned two reasons; my mom thought it would be better for my first language to be English, since we live in america, and another reason would be so i wouldn't be made fun of. There is many pros and cons to passing our knowledge to what we know, but it defines who we are. Filipinos are a mixture of cultures, learn how to decolonize. Modern day Filipin@s have so much information with all the news and pop culture that we don't realize that we have our responsibilities as Filipin@s. We're learning in this class to strive, learn, and to excel on what our roots are. We build communities like the Kababayan Program to inform our younger generations about what Filipin@s are all about. By Justin Buenaventura
