Assimilation worked really well (that was the buzzword back then). We grew up in Noble Park in Dandenong. Apart from eating adobo and seeing family on the weekends at that age (primary school to early high school), I kept forgetting I was brown; I am Filipino.John Marc Desengano on growing up Filipino-Australian during the early nineties in Noble Park, Dandenong
'When I was 27 years old up until now, there's a reclamation of cultural identity. There's an exploration for me of what it means to be Filipino or Filipino-Australian. There's a lot of advocacy for young people to explore their identity and to understand that it's okay if you don't understand it yet'John March Desengano on reclaiming and understanding his Filipino identity growing up in Australia
