BGirl Panel
As we celebrate 50 years of Hip Hop in 2023, our Historic Illiipinos discussion panel will reflect on the indelible impact Filipinas have had on the culture as well as address some the critical community issues of our era and how inter-generational Pinays want our contributions to be remembered.
Join us as we engage in a discussion about our influences and inspirations, the Pinay bgirl experience, mental wellness, social acceptance in the Fil-Am Diaspora as well as decolonization and reviving pre-colonial traditions through modern culture.
