About this product
Product Information
The first Filipino settlers arrived in Stockton, California, around 1898, and through most of the 20th century, this city was home to the largest community of Filipinos outside the Philippines. Because countless Filipinos worked in, passed through, and settled here, it became the crossroads of Filipino America. Yet immigrants were greeted with signs that read "Positively No Filipinos Allowed" and were segregated to a four-block area centered on Lafayette and El Dorado Streets, which they called "Little Manila." In the 1970s, redevelopment and the Crosstown Freeway decimated the Little Manila neighborhood. Despite these barriers, Filipino Americans have created a vibrant ethnic community and a rich cultural legacy. Filipino immigrants and their descendants have shaped the history, culture, and economy of the San Joaquin Delta area.

Among those in the photograph is Maria B. Vea of Lathrop who contributed the photograph. The introduction to the softcover book's contents gives a historical snapshot of the Filipino community in Stockton, from the first Filipino settlers who came to Stockton around 1898 through the 20th century when the city founded by Captain Charles Weber became home to the largest Filipino community in the United States. It skims through the historical highlights through the decades of the Filipino experience in Stockton, including the evolution of historic Little Manila and the founding of the Stockton Chapter of the Filipino American National Historical Society (FANHS).
