Fil-Am history & activism

The US is a second home for wonder | wonder | women which we have come to love it as deeply as our original homeland, the Philippines. 

The 2010 census claims there are 3.4 million Filipinos in the US although the total number is bound to be much higher by now. Filipinos are the largest Asian group in the states of Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Washington, Wyoming and South Dakota.

Black Lives Matter: turning grief into action

wonder | wander | women love living in a world full of diverse people, ideologies and principles. One of the reasons we moved to an international community was because we wanted to absorb other people's experiences, especially those who had grown up marginalised and silenced and were now growing and rejoicing in their new lives.

The world stands out on either side

No wider than the heart is wide;

Above the world is stretched the sky,

No higher than the soul is high.

The heart can push the sea and land

Farther away on either hand;

The soul can split the sky in two,

And let the face of God shine through. 

But East and West will pinch the heart

That can not keep them pushed apart;

And he whose soul is flat—the sky

Will cave in on him by and by.

~ Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950), Renascence

Issa & Mahala at Crawford Lake - Ontario, Canada, June 2018

We know the elements of erosion - wind, water, and time - have shaped the spectacular physical landscape of our nation. These women bravely explore the many forms of erosion we face - democracy, science, compassion, and trust.
