This participatory study will present zine-in-progress materials on the struggle of Filipino migrants in the United States, addressing the root causes which force Filipinos to migrate, and the system the Philippine government has created to extract money from vulnerable migrant workers. We will share stories from migrant experiences in the United States, highlighting the ways they have self-organized and fought back against exploitation from employers, the US and Philippine governments, and ICE. Participants will be invited to contribute ideas on how to develop this material for a future zine.
