Heritage online (2017)
heritage online is the autobiographical story of a Filipino-Mexican girl exploring her mixed-race identity through the internet. Plummeting down a rabbit hole of curious Google searches and nasty Facebook comments, she devours quesadillas, figures out how to wear a malong, and playfully dances in traditional garb between her virtual explorations. Although she feels rejected by the bombardment of voices cruelly invalidating her ethnic selfhood, she also comes upon loving sentiments which affirm her dual identity and validate her challenges in finding intercommunity acceptance and feeling like a genuine Asian-Latina.
