Can anyone recommend any books, music, or movies for learning more about the culture of the phillipines? Any resources for learning the languages (tapes, classes)? Any one have any stories or travel anecdotes? Any replies will be greatly appreciated.
I recommend checking to see if your local area has a Filipino-American cultural organization or society. Most metro-area's have one. They can be a great wealth of info. Paul
A book I like is "Bound to Empire - The United States and The Philippines" By. H.W. Brands This is a historical look at the PI and the US, from about the Spanish American War to late 20th century.
