History Café: Stories of Filipino Seattle

Join author and professor Peter Bacho for a discussion of his book, Uncle Rico’s Encore: Mostly True Stories of Filipino Seattle. Dive into a collection of autobiographical stories detailing the experiences of a Filipino cannery worker in Seattle from the 1950s and 1970s, and learn what it took to forge community amongst the built and human landscapes.

History Café is produced as a partnership between HistoryLink and MOHAI.

ASL Interpretation and CART captioning are available during the program. In addition, a limited number of Assistive Listening Devices are available upon request. For more accessibility support, [email programs@mohai.org two weeks before the program](mailto:programs@mohai.org?subject=History%20Caf%C3%A9:%20Stories%20of%20Filipino%20Seattle).

Grab some food for thought–Gourmondo at MOHAI remains open until 7pm for every History Café.
