Coming to America Lecture Series. Sunday, November 17, 4:30 pm *Note change in time* The Making of Filipino Louisiana by Randy Gonzales. Filipinos first settled in Louisiana in the late 1700s when both Louisiana and the Philippines were part of New Spain. These early settlers established a community that drew more Filipinos to the area and set the foundation for the vibrant community of today. This lecture will tell the story of the development of Filipino Louisiana, from the sailors who established fishing villages in the wetlands to the communities that developed in the Marigny and along Bayou St. John.
