Ramos' Halo-halo is a poetic Pilipino treat that exchanges the traditional components of a halo halo - munggo beans, jackfruit, leche flan, and ube jam - for culture, history, identity, revelation, and revolution. Readers of all backgrounds will enjoy traveling with Ramos on the path toward cultural rediscovery and reconnection. Ramos had to adapt to immigrant life in the U.S. She struggled to hold on to her native tongue, juggle cultural identities, and be the fruit of her parents' labor in a land not made for her to thrive. She writes not only about her experiences with immigration but also about the gifts of humilty, knowledge, and a passion for advocacy she found along the way. 650 0 $a American poetry $x Filipino American authors. 650 0 $a Phillipine poetry (English) 941 $a 1 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20230203012318.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7B3C514AA39211ED924352D529ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
