Happy Filipino American History Month!
Happy #FilipinoAmericanHISTORYMonth!
— FANHS National (@fanhs_national) October 1, 2021
Our theme this year is “50 Years Since the First Young Filipino Peoples’ Far West Convention”. The Far West Conventions are viewed by many as the start of the Filipino American Movement and the birth of Filipino American identity.#FAHM2021 pic.twitter.com/GecIlurbyx
October is Filipino American HISTORY Month, NOT Filipino American Heritage Month. The distinction is important!

Created by @fanhs_national in 1991, #FAHM was always intended to be HISTORY Month. Not sure when/why people renamed something that wasn’t theirs to change. #FAHM2021

It’s the start of Filipino American History Month! This month is about highlighting the history of Filipinos in the United States — from the first recorded presence on October 18, 1587 to the farmworkers’ movement to present day American society. #FaHM #FAHM2021 pic.twitter.com/QkKEyPRUhU
