About this submission
You might know this familiar story - immigrants arrive full of hope, build a thriving community, and then watch their kids drift away from the old ways. Magasayawan Ketchikan explores how the Filipino community in Ketchikan was established, thrived with cultural programs, and then declined. It highlights current efforts to revitalize Filipino cultural traditions, especially traditional dance, and pass them to younger generations to recreate the cultural pride, belonging, and connection that once brought the community together. This goes beyond one culture; it is the immigrant's struggle to maintain identity in a new home, played out on the Alaskan frontier.
