ICYMI Encore Episode of The History of Filipino Nurses
from Asian American History 101 · host Gen & Ted Lai
Welcome to Season 3, Episode 14. In this ICYMI Encore Episode, we go back to Season 2, Episode 19. There are a lot of Filipino nurses. In fact, the Philippines is the leading exporter of registered nurses across the world. So how did that happen? Spoilers… American Colonialism was a factor. To celebrate National Nurses Day, we take a look into the History of Filipino Nurses and talk about some of the conditions they face with discrimination and racism. If this topic intrigues you, then we highly recommend reading the book Empire of Care: Nursing and Migration in Filipino American History by Catherine Ceniza Choy, a professor of ethnic studies at the University of California, Berkeley. To begin this episode, we start with a brief history of National Nurses Day.
