“Little Manila” airing on PBS

We wanted to let you know that our documentary, “Little Manila: Filipinos in California’s Heartland” is going to be airing nationally on select PBS Stations. We’d love it if you could watch the program on your local station!

About the Program:
Narrated by Dean Devlin, famed Filipino-American movie producer (Independence Day, The Patriot), the program is about the infamous neighborhood in Stockton, CA, once called, “The City of Gold” by Filipinos. Filled with chop-suey houses, gambling dens, and dance halls, Little Manila was once home to the largest number of Filipino immigrants outside of the Philippines.

The show is part of the Asian Pacific American Heritage Month on PBS. Below are a few broadcast dates and times, but if your station isn’t listed here, please download the PDF schedule for broadcast times all over the US.
