Manila Chicken Inasal, Bacolod Falafel, Filipino Jiu Jitsu, and Naturalized Pinoy Hoopers: Who decides what is authentically Filipino?

BC Poppas

This episode was an assignment Jon did for his Philippine Studies class, which was the last class he needed to finish his Associate’s Degree in Philippine Studies at City College of San Francisco. Jon was one of two people who are the first to achieve this degree in the United States. “Jon (CCSF Philippine Studies 40) chops it up with Jojo Casilao, Bacolod (Philippines) native, and get's his take on what Filipino authenticity is to him. We hope this conversation is a fun listen for you and at the same time challenges you to look at you own definitions of what is "authentic."”
