Debbie Hernandez, a PhD student from Wilfrid Laurier University, explores the importance of cultural teachings in Filipino communities, focusing on how these teachings are remembered, experienced, used, and passed on, despite being marginalized within dominant cultures. Guided by feminist theory and postcolonial studies, particularly M. Jacqui Alexander’s concept of “pedagogies of the Sacred,” herwork respects these belief systems as real and valuable, rather than dismissing them as mere cultural artifacts.
