When COVID-19 impacted America’s frontline healthcare workers, one demographic was hit especially hard: Filipino nurses. Nearly a third of all nurses who died during the pandemic were Filipino.
For decades, Filipino nurses have been a staple of the U.S. healthcare system, and their hard work and dedication to patients have touched countless lives. Exploring the history of the Filipino nurses in the United States, takes viewers through colonialism, immigration and the lasting legacy of the Filipino community in the healthcare system.
A heartfelt and illuminating documentary, Nurse Unseen shares these largely untold stories from generations of Filipino nurses.
Following the film, participants will take part in a discussion and activity.
