The cost of white ambivalence

...in the midst of the faltering national economy we should understand how our inattention over the years to the warning signs of coming crisis explain much about how and why things got to be this bad. And those warning signs were ignored in large measure because they seemed not to impact white Americans, especially middle class and above whites.

About Me

My photo
Leny Strobel
I am the author of Coming Full Circle: The Process of Decolonization Among Post-1965 Filipino Americans; A Book of Her Own: Words and Images to Honor the Babaylan; and the editor of Babaylan: Filipinos and the Call of the Indigenous, as well as other journal publications, anthologies, and ezines.

I'm Project Director for the Center for Babaylan Studies, a nonprofit activity of the International Humanities Center (501C3). In 2010, we organized the First International Babaylan Conference at Sonoma State University. The Center's vision is to create a container for Babaylan-inspired events, collaborative projects, research projects, and other activities that disseminate knowledge and create community around the theme of Filipino Indigenous Knowledge Systems and Practices.
