Carlos Bulosan's "America Is In the Heart" A Dinner Journey, Readings, & Discussion

As a part of our celebration of National Filipino American History Month in October, we are inviting you to read Carlos Bulosan's "America Is In the Heart" and join us for dinner to share your thoughts on key themes of the book.

First published in 1946, this autobiography of the well known Filipino poet describes his boyhood in the Philippines, his voyage to America, and his years of hardship and despair as an itinerant laborer following the harvest trail in the rural West. Bulosan does not spare the reader any of the horrors tha accompanied the migrant's life; but his quiet, stoic voice is the most convincing witness to the terrible events he witnessed.
