Description

We're back with a new episode! "It's essential to create spaces and capital to invest in our own kapwa." - S.Bondoc On this episode, Simon Bondoc, Director of Outreach from Pinoys on Parliament joins us to talk about the yearly national conference focused on youth leadership for young Filipino Canadians. In this compelling conversation we discuss: - Discovering and celebrating Filipino joy in a safe community that empowers and uplifts Filipino youth. - The theme for this year's conference 'Pagitan' - which describes the two worlds we stand in. From where we came from (the Philippines) and the intricacies that we face as we navigate life in Canada. - Finding our space in between and exploring our intersections because our identity is not monolithic. - Building a space where the young Filipino generation feels supported in their journey of healing and liberation for themselves. - Why its significant to see Filipino representation in Parliament and how crucial it is that we take up space in society without losing who we are. - Lastly, reclaiming our power as a Filipino/a/x and channeling our energy in making a difference for our people ABOUT SIMON BONDOC Simon Bondoc is a new university graduate, community leader, activist and the Director of Outreach for the 2022 Pinoys on Parliament conference. He is Kapampangan and Hiligaynon, living on Moh’kins’tsis in Treaty 7 territory, colonially known as Calgary. The first POP in 2019 made the things he is passionate about now come to life: politics, social justice, community building, culture and spirituality. He has been involved in different organizations, projects and election campaigns ever since. In the future, he hopes to be ordained as a minister in the United Church of Canada and be the loving, queer, justice-seeking Filipino minister he wished he knew growing up.
