tanglad feminist runner activist cyclist dog lover home about me comments policy tanglad is lemongrass tanglad feminist runner activist cyclist dog lover feeds posts comments august 17 2010 by tanglad i m spending more time on t anglad tumblr com and i m looking for fellow pinoy kasamas on tumblr mag hello naman kayo posted in uncategorized leave a comment what falls away july 13 2010 by tanglad i m reading neferti tadiar s things fall away and this passage leaps out one of my man objectives in this book has been to carefully attend to the varied creative potential of subjective practices that socially oriented and social movement literatures attempt to figuratively capture and yet tend to diminish in the fabulation of proper historical subjects often viewed a atavistic and mystified habits and therefore as forms of weaknesses and self oppression that need to be overcome these devalued supplemental experiential practices nevertheless importantly create and transform the very material social structures in which feminists urban activists and revolutionary forces actively seek to intervene such diminished experiences have helped to bring about broad social changed in ways that these groups could not foresee p 8 emphasis mine tadiar labels these diminished experiences as things that fall away from capitalism activities that are productive but not in the ways that are prescribed and recognized by neoliberal capitalism like performance art indigenous women s labor collectives and seedbanks movement and being outside but i m struck too at how she includes activists feminists revolutionary forces among those who diminish such fall away experiences especially when they re not easy to reconcile with what is seen as the proper historical subject because it is easy for someone like me to speak for masa in solidarity to find that a peasant community s struggle for for a health clinic and the struggle for land reform are equally important they might not be for the peasants who are still without healthcare i m reminded of an argument with a friend who patiently listened to me rant about catholicism and false consciousness opium etc she then reminded me that liberation theology could not have been foreseen by non catholics or even by former catholics like me it s a theology of faith love freedom and revolution that could only have been nurtured in this specific community a community that i had arrogantly dismissed i m still struggling through things fall away and with questions of how to conduct ethical dialogues and coalitional research especially since i will soon be embarking on ethnographic research and its easy to fall into the trap of thinking of oneself as an ally who could speak for people in a marginalized community the researcher who does that will never even be aware of the experiences that she will miss of the great possibilities that could just fall away as a result posted in good reads philippines tagged neferti tadiar philippines

contract workers leave a comment pocs on bikes july 2 2010 by tanglad a friend described cycling as a whitestream activity i mentioned that i saw a lot of poc commuters in the early morning and expect more as los angeles metro fares go up once again boo but that s commuting she said of course there would be a lot of poc riding a bike becomes cycling a sport or a recreational activity when you don t depend on it to get around much the same way that walking becomes hiking she may have something there after a year of riding it s still a nice surprise every time i see other people of color on the trail there s a pinoy group and a few pinoy friends and family who ride with me when they can but mountain biking and trail running i think still seems pretty whitestream and the less i dwell on the mountainbike boards where a post asking any pinoy riders in socal was met with a flurry of i m forming a whites only riding group posts and charges of reverse racism the better for my sanity i snicker at claims that modern mountain biking was born in the 1970s when a bunch of norcal dudes started downhilling mt tam and when road bike companies started manufacturing mountain specific bikes as a kid in the philippines my partner m used to ride his bike in the fields behind his house it wasn t called mountain biking then of course just a bunch of kids riding their bikes where they could like countless kids have been doing since bikes were invented but that probably doesn t count as modern mountain biking or as mountain biking for that matter neither was it called mountain biking in 1896 when 2 0 buffalo soldiers from the 25th infantry rode from fort missoula rode to st louis missouri this wonderful picture makes me happy us 25th infantry on bicycles photo from wikimedia commons more

filipino americanism global americana as a relation of death pdf at the nexus of a prevailing filipino american discourse that celebrates the filipino american as a cooperative participant in the united states nation building project sits an unnamable violence that masks the genocidal preconditions of multiculturalist white supremacy to which this discourse unwittingly subscribes it is as if being empowered through and therefore more actively participating in the structures of u s state violence white supremacy and global economic and military dominance is something to be desired by filipinos how could these acts of desiring what is in the colonizer s economic and military interests specifically on the part of filipino elite be explained especially when these colonizer interests run counter to their own continue reading posted in colonialism postcolonialism filipino americans philippines leave a comment a repeating archipelago may 17 2010 by tanglad in his the repeating island antonio benitez rojo wrote of how common social and cultural practices make visible the caribbean islands shared histories of plantation slavery benitez rojo writes that these similarities stem from their common experience of the plantation machine a colonial apparatus set up to extract resources from the colonies to profit the metropole but in addition to producing profits for the colonizers the plantation machine also produces a way of life and long after overt colonialism has given way to postcolonialism the plantation machine continues to produce and reproduce the type of society that results from their use and abuse 8 9 last week s philippine elections are making me reflect on benitez rojo s metaphor of the plantation machine the new president noynoy aquino is part of a powerful political landlord family whose collective hands are still bloody from the hacienda luisita massacre the marcos family yes including imelda have been re elected back into office and so has former president and incoming congressional representative gloria arroyo who has just appointed her lapdog as the new supreme court chief justice to preside over her impending graft cases the most

2010 by tanglad an observation from an acquaintance many filipino businessmen he said find that they already had an in with their counterparts from saudi arabia and other middle eastern countries that young businessmen from the middle east felt an affinity with filipinos magaan ang loob the reason these businesspeople from the middle east grew up with filipina nannies because of their carework said this acquaintance filipina women are in such positions of influence over the next generation of businesspeople from the middle east pinoy entrepreneurs he said could use trade on this predisposed goodwill as capital the gender dynamics of filipino labor migration shifted around the 1980s more women were recruited for domestic work a trend that continues today an estimated 70 percent of the 3 000 filipinos who leave the country each day due to labor migration are women i had already known filipina mothers work as nannies and caregivers even as they leave their own children behind that these women s labor feed the remittances that keep the philippine economy afloat and that all these benefits to the country to the private sector have come at great personal cost to women who spent years away from their own children but it still makes me sad and angry to note that decades later long after their children had grown up without their presence these women s labor and sacrifice
