In commemoration of the centennial of poet and author Carlos Bulosan's birth, the exhibit draws on the papers of Bulosan, the cannery workers union, and various Filipino American labor leaders and community members within the broader context of Seattle's Filipino American community, the progressive political culture in which he participated. The exhibit is part of a month-long city wide cultural festival celebrating Bulosan's life and work. View a list of activities throughout the region that will culminate in a major academic conference on the UW Campus in late November.
