The articles in this annotated bibliography describe the labor history of Filipino and US migration flows and the post-migration experiences of today’s Filipino immigrants. Filipino immigrants comprise a large portion of all Asian immigrants to the United States. In 2019, Pilipino migrants accounted for the third-largest country of origin in terms of immigrants with an estimated number of 2 million (Hanna & Batalova, 2021). The reasons why Filipinos migrate to the US can be found in the fact that historically, the Philippines and United States had a labor-based relationship, where the latter fills its labor gaps by employing the latter (Manalansan & Espiritu, 2016; Ortiga, 2018). Therefore, the pathways of immigration are well-established, and there are fewer barriers due to labor-based interests. There are psychological and socioeconomic factors at play regarding the migration patterns of the group. The target group performs better than other immigrants due to more improved socioeconomic factors, where they are more likely to own a house (Gallardo & Batalova, 2020; Kim et al., 2012). Lastly, Filipino want to immigrate to the US because there are psychological elements, such as colonial mentality and voluntary immigrant narratives (David & Nadal, 2013). Thus, Filipinos migrate to the United States because they are needed in the American labor market, they are more likely to succeed financially, there are well-established pathways of migration, and historical and psychosocial factors facilitate immigration. The first source is a comprehensive book on the historical causes and current state of Filipino migrants in the United States. The authors argue that Filipino is more inclined to immigrate to the US due to the neocolonial historical roots, which are manifested in the “labor brokerage” state of the Philippine state (Manalansan & Espiritu, 2016). In other words, historically, the United States and the Philippines have a long-lasting relationship, which is tied to the labor forces’ needs of the former, and thus, labor policies are designed to fill the labor gaps in the US. In 2019, the Philippines was the largest source of immigrants from South-Eastern Asian countries (Hanna & Batalova, 2021). The evidence is mostly focused on the historical relationship between the given two countries, which does not necessarily explain the current state of immigration, but it can be used as a foundational perspective on the general relationship between the Philippines and the United States. The sources can be useful to understand how the current policies formed and how they incentivized Filipino immigration, and therefore, it objectively demonstrates the fact that labor-based relations made Filipino people to be compelled to relocate to America. The book can greatly assist the selected topic of the project by illustrating how, for a long time, Filipinos have been aware that the United States has a certain interest in the Filipino workforce. The article mainly focuses on the Filipino healthcare workers, such as nurses, and education-based as well as labor-based immigration to the United States. The source states that the growth of various educational programs, such as nursing programs, in the Philippines was facilitated by the fact that the
