Pilipino American Alliance
ucb.paa@gmail.comMission Statement:

- revised by
PAA Core 2002-2003
History:
Established in 1969, the Pilipino American Alliance, formerly called the Filipino Student Association (FSA), grew out of an era when racism and oppression of Third World peoples occurred in the United States. These issues prompted students of Berkeley to advocate and fight for the creation of an ethnic studies program and a Third World College, collectively called the Third World Liberation Front (TWLF).
In the midst of this turbulent era of protest and struggle, Pilipino students rallied together to create an organization to advance political, economic, and social justice. The Pilipino American Alliance was initiated by its founders to protect and enhance the representation of Pilipinos and Pilipino Americans on the Berkeley campus and the surrounding community. Its purpose was “to bring together Pilipinos on campus, provide Pilipino students opportunities for interaction through social activities, and give them a chance to work on Pilipino community projects in Oakland and San Francisco communities.”
During its forty-one year existence, the purposes of PAA have been adapted and tailored to the ever-changing needs of the Pilipino and Pilipino American community at Cal. Since the amendment of PAA’s mission statement in 2002, PAA has strived to promote a network of social support for the Pilipino and Pilipino American community through the encouragement of political struggle, academic excellence, and cultural awareness while encouraging unity on campus through the celebration of cultural diversity.
