Education Hall, Main Floor, East Wing
Filipinos settled in Alaska beginning in the late 18th century, yet their histories and stories are often untold. With original interviews connecting the past and present, Mana: The History We Inherit offers insight into the histories of Filipinos in Alaska.
Journalist Shayne Nuesca, documentarian Joshua Albeza Branstetter and community builder Tasha Elizarde, present Mana at the 果冻传煤 Museum as an audio-visual archive honoring Alaska鈥檚 Filipino elders through photos and stories sourced from Filipinos across Alaska. Mana (pronounced MAH-nuh) is the Tagalog root word meaning 鈥渋nheritance鈥� or 鈥渢o inherit.鈥� Along with sharing the oral histories of Filipinos in Alaska, Mana organizers see the project as a shared legacy for future generations.
