Produktbeschreibung

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 In 2020, I was a working mother of two, who found herself trapped in a four-month lockdown as the Covid-19 pandemic swept the country. I was both overwhelmed and clinically depressed, but I still needed to get my kids' needs met.

#2 Women are not innately better at caregiving than men. But what I found most problematic was that I was the one allowing interruption to be habitual.

#3 The Philippines' first family of balikbayan boxes has a history with the United States that goes back to the colonial era.

#4 The US government allowed a surge of Filipino nurses to migrate to America in the 1970s as part of a larger effort to recruit foreign labor. The nurses, mostly female and brown, provided much-needed labor in American hospitals.
