I am a Polish holocaust survivor and have lived in America since I was five. I've visited Negros Oriental for 6 weeks, then 3 1/2 months and this year I will leave America in November to be in your land for four months. My connection to your land your people and now your tutelage makes me understand that I am more Filipino than American. Thank you professor

He was my prof in Philippine Society, Art and Culture many years ago and I still am learning from him!

This professor needs to be celebrated and elevated. His take on Filipino culture made a lot of sense to me. The idea of Kapwa and highly relational characterization of Filipino psyche unlocked a deeper understanding of why we do what we do. Why we welcome even strangers into our homes and help others who are in need even though we have problems of our own. I am proud to be a part of this culture. It must be preserved and celebrated.

Damn. I was dumbfounded after hearing that we are divided by mountains, connected by seas. It really make sense. Thank you, sir for waking us up. ❤

Omg he's so right about Filipino food not having recipes for single servings, it's always family servings🤯

Every Filipino should be able to watch this now. We have forgotten who we are.

“The Filipinos are not very proud of who they are simply because they don’t know who they are.”

Natumbok mo, Prof. De Leon. This is an amazing video. Thank you for sharing this with us. My heart screams of pride for our identity. 🇵🇭🔥

Wow, this is one of the smartest humans I’ve ever heard speak. I’m English only and he speaks so fast and eloquently. I pray he lives long and is able to teach Filipino culture in the U.S. universities and high schools. Sana po. God Bless,

I read a comment on tiktok said that we are not hospitable, but people-pleasers, but after watching this I realized that it was always the sense of community in us, we don't want other people to be uncomfortable-- to be relaxed

This is what a former student of mine observed when he went overseas to work. He noted that only in the Philippines can people of different social status can drink/tagay together and have genuine camaraderie.

Dapat may Filipino Culture and Values na subject sa schools in the Philippines.

@annedevon8666 1 year ago

Bravo, Prof de Leon! This is what a Master Teacher looks like. And a master class--in less than even half an hour, his students can learn more about core Filipino values than they would in other hour-long ir more class sessions. And how he points to the most basic aspect of Filipino identity is truly anazing,

Let's bring this back. Teach it again to the next generation.

@akosimj9544 2 years ago

What I notice in every prosperous and well developed countries around the world is that, their culture is still rich, preserve, and being taking care of. They value what their history is and they care not only to protect and preserve it but also they teach their incoming generation about it. It is never lost or replaced by any modern world even if their country is already modernize. That's why if we only value and nourish and act what our real culture is, not k-pop, western, etc, I'm sure the next generation of our country will be the generation that might relive what being a true Filipino is.

I hope that this should be included in our education system. It should be embedded in the minds of our younger generation.
