- The Process of Decolonization Among Post-1965 Filipino Americans
233,95 kr. In this second edition of Coming Full Circle: The Process of Decolonization Among Post-1965 Filipino Americans, Professor EJR David writes a new FOREWORD and the author has a NEW INTRODUCTION.Coming Full Circle is about the healing of the Filipino colonized psyche through the recovery and re-imagination of Filipino identity and culture. It is about the emergence from the 'culture of silence' to critical consciousness that is able to develop new conceptualizations and frameworks about the Filipino American experience.Decolonization is a psychological process that enables the colonized to understand and overcome the depths of alienation and marginalization caused by the psychic and epistemic violence of colonization. Decolonization transforms the consciousness of the colonized through the reclamation of the Filipino cultural self and makes space for the recovery and healing of traumatic memory, and healing leading to different forms of activism. It is an open-ended process. It is a new way of seeing. As a way of healing, it is also a promise and a hope.

- A Memoir: Through the MDR Poetry Generator
228,95 kr. Glimpses: A Poetic Memoir (Through the MDR Generator) began as a daily meditation practice of reading a poetic line from Eileen Tabios' Murder, Death, Resurrection, and then allowing the heart's response to flow without censorship. The meditations offer us a glimpse of Leny's life-long reflections on love, history, decolonization, healing trauma, finding belonging and purpose, and building community."Taking another poet's lines as her starting points, Leny creates mediations and meditations within which she tells her story and invites her readers to come in and dwell a while to contemplate what she has created: a retreat, a cocoon, a place in which to see oneself and to be seen, from which to spin forward and inspire other poetic awakenings."-Myriam J. A. Chancy, Guggenheim Fellow, author of The Loneliness of Angels, and HBA Chair in the Humanities, Scripps College
