I have been browsing through the internet for Philippine anti-racism NGOs that I might be able to approach for assistance with our problem. I chanced upon your blog during my search.
My wife & I were victims of anti-racism remarks by a Filipino-American preacher in Baguio City. I am a Filipino-Chinese born in the Philippines. This Pastor shouted “…GO BACK WHERE YOU BELONG…” to me during an argument with him & his people.
He also called my wife “GAGO” and “STUPID” in front of his people & our staff at our village. I guess this will be of interest to Women’s Groups in the Philippines. My problem is I cannot locate any groups that I can contact for help. I realize that your blog Anti Racism Movement (ARM) tackles issues pertaining to racism in Lebanon.
While it may seem strange that I am contacting you for help, perhaps you may know of groups in the Philippines that you might refer to me to contact. Thank you for your time.
To inquire about this statement and the context, email us or fill the form.
At the Anti-Racism Movement (ARM), we are constantly working on a multitude of different activities and initiatives. Most of our activities are only possible with the help of dedicated and passionate volunteers who work in collaboration with our core team.
The Anti-Racism Movement (ARM) was launched in 2010 as a grassroots collective by young Lebanese feminist activists in collaboration with migrant workers and migrant domestic workers.
