- W245655100 abstract "Roland Sintos Coloma, Bonnie McElhinny, Ethel Tungohan, John Paul C. Catungal, and Lisa M. Davidson, eds. Filipinos in Canada: Disturbing Invisibility. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2012. 464 pp. 10 images. $85.00 he. $37.95 sc. Filipinos in Canada: Disturbing Invisibility is a groundbreaking book that explores racial construction of Filipinos in Canada. As an edited collection, it brings together for first time scholarly works, research findings, literary compositions, and visual art photos of Filipino scholars, academics, community activists, and critical artists in Canada, as well as non-Filipino Canadians whose works are situated in Filipino-Canadian studies. It aims to interrogate what it means to be a Filipino in Canada by engaging in concept of visibility and invisibility. Building on works of critical race and feminist scholars, authors argue that visibility or producing a positive image is not solution to invisibility or potential way to disrupt White supremacy. Rather, it is by interrogating and deconstructing both positive and negative images that continuously benefit mainstream culture. With a highly critical and scholarly tone, five parts and twenty chapters of book demonstrate such interrogations and deconstructions of Filipino stereotypes as well as discuss Filipinos' experiences of racialization in Canada. Part 1 contains first three chapters with title Difference and Recognition. It begins with book editors' chapter that outlines socio-political issues, theoretical, and philosophical underpinnings of visibility and hypervisibility. It discusses genealogy of Filipino-Canadian scholarship and offers critique to limits of Canadian liberal multiculturalism. Such is a helpful resource for scholars, academics, researchers, and community activists. The remaining two chapters under this part interrogate description of Filipinos as innately nurturing: that such a description places Filipinos to affect-related jobs just to satisfy Canada's need for cheap labour (Chapter 2). Filipinos are then de-professionalized and occupy low-paying jobs in Canada (Chapter 3). This part then ends with a song-poem (My Folks) by Carlo Sayo and Jean Marc Daga. Part 2, Gender, Migration, and Labour, opens with a photo essay entitled SCRAP by Reuben Saramugam and Bryan Taguba, showing the story of struggles and resistance of Filipino women in Live-in caregiver program (95). These stories continue in Chapters 4 through 9 with analysis from lens of history, women and labour studies, anthropology, political science, and diaspora and ethnic studies. The authors of these chapters reveal how race operates through gender to sustain dominant groups' racial and class position in Canada. A picture of Darna (a Filipina superhero) carrying a balikbayan (return to country) box by artist Celia Correa opens Part 3 entitled Representation and Discontents. Darna depicts Filipino migrant realities of distance and absence that are lived and transformed in concrete and idealistic terms (221). …" @default.
