FANHS published the first volume of the FANHS Journal in 1988 (under the name Ala-Ala, which means “memories, remembrance, or gift in Filipino). The second volume (1992) was named “FANHS Forum,” and with the third volume (published in 1994 under Dr. Pilapil’s editorship), it was renamed the FANHS Journal.The FANHS Journal is an interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal published by FANHS. The journal is published biennially (one volume every other year) but our hope is to eventually be able to publish one volume every year. The goal of the journal is to promote the mission of FANHS by publishing, disseminating, and promoting research related to Filipino American history. The journal publishes research by community-based and academic historians as well as personal histories.

COLLABORATING WITH OUR ANCESTORS: CONTINUING THE LEGACY OF FANHS JOURNAL EDITOR VIRGILIO R. PILAPIL, M.D.
The Filipino American National Historical Society (FANHS) is excited to share its first issue of the FANHS Journal (Vol 10, 2020) under its new co-editors, Dr. Terese Guinsatao Monberg and Dr. Patricia Espiritu Halagao. This Special Issue, “Collaborating with our Ancestors,” pays tribute to the memory and work of our previous editor, Virgilio R. Pilapil, MD, (1938 – 2019), who edited the journal for twenty-five years. The editors highlight Gil’s enduring legacy as a community-based historian and editor in shaping the FANHS Journal and FANHS research more broadly. By analyzing Gilʻs work across place and time, the editors hope to use this issue as a model for the kinds of content they are looking for in the future. They hope you will join them in continuing the legacy of FANHS Journal Editor, Virgilio Pilapil, M.D.
