This portrait by JJ Jumoc-Casas from the Fil-Am Book Festival in SF (where I gave a keynote in Tagalog eek!) gives me such museum vibes!

@CCenizaChoy The crowd size was impressive!

"We may identify with different demonyms, hyphenations, time zones, and citizenships, but if we can all partake in each other’s experiences as in a pagsasalo-salo, we may yet recognize ourselves in a first-person plural, in which our pronouns are we, tayo, atin."

If you were at the Indie Publishing or Inkstorm 2 Panels at #FilBookFest last Sunday, or the Uncle Tito party, consider testing this week & monitoring yourself for 14 days.

If you test postive, DM us for contact tracing purposes. #Covid is still with us, keep safe, all!
