In the early morning hours of July 14, 1966, Chicago police responded to a call about a woman screaming for help at a townhouse in Chicago's Jeffery Manor neighborhood. When they arrived, they found student nurse Cora Amurao outside the home she shared with eight other student nurses, all of whom had been strangled or stabbed that night by an unknown intruder, while Cora hid underneath her bed. Considered at the time to be a “crime of the century,” the student nurse murders shocked and terrified Chicago residents all across the city. Not only had one man managed to brutally murder eight people, but he had also managed to escape and was loose somewhere in the city. At the time, racially motivated riots had broken out across the city, making the already-burdened Chicago Police Department even more strained when it came to investigating the case.After an intense manhunt that lasted several days, investigators arrested Richard Speck, a twenty-four-year-old unemployed drifter with a criminal history. There was a strong amount of evidence that linked Speck directly to the murders, including his own confession, so when he went to trial, his lawyer tried unsuccessfully to argue Speck was not legally sane at the time of the murders. Unfortunately, the truth was something far worse: Speck killed eight women for no reason whatsoever.ReferencesAltman, Jack, and Marvin Ziporyn. 1967.

Episode #182: Football enthusiasts and those passionate about legacy won't want to miss this episode featuring Roman Gabriel III, who joins me, Kimberly Lovey, for an engaging conversation about the intersection of family, football, and enduring influence. Roman, with his rich lineage as the son of legendary NFL quarterback Roman Gabriel, shares the challenges and triumphs of pursuing professional football aspirations under the shadow of greatness. Together, we paint a vivid picture of Roman's formative years in Westlake Village, California, his childhood dreams, and the powerful lessons learned from his father's unwavering dedication to the sport. Our discussion takes a personal turn as we explore the profound impact of parental influence on shaping who we become. I reflect on my own upbringing, drawing inspiration from my parents' teachings, which emphasized balance, character, and the importance of finishing what you start. Roman and I share how these deeply ingrained values have guided us through life's challenges, with anecdotes about how team sports and spirituality played pivotal roles in our development. We also highlight the significance of giving back, with a special focus on the Soul At You Foundation, which aims to empower the next generation with essential life skills. Finally, we address crucial issues affecting today's youth, particularly the dangers of substance abuse. Roman passionately discusses a parental program designed to educate and protect children, with initiatives supported by the NFL to tackle the fentanyl crisis. Acknowledging our responsibility to inform and safeguard young minds, we invite listeners to engage with our resources and partnerships, promising impactful developments on the horizon. Roman's heartfelt reflections on his father's legacy, his pride in his Filipino heritage, and the broader implications of honoring one's roots conclude this rich tapestry of conversation, blending personal stories with broader societal themes.

On this episode of #TheShot of #DigitalHealth Therapy, Jim Joyce and I had the pleasure of chatting with the globally minded and endlessly curious Alette Ramos Hunt, PhD, Global Director, Digital Innovation & AI for Drug Discovery at Novartis. From being a third culture kid (Danish dad, Filipino mom, born in Japan, raised in Hong Kong) to becoming one of the sharpest voices connecting biotech, digital health, and AI, Alette brings perspective that's as international as it is insightful. We explored her fascinating path from studying proteins in Glasgow to driving AI innovation in pharma, and how she's bridging the gap between molecules, humans, and machines. She reminded us that practical AI and game-changing AI both have a place - one makes us efficient, the other makes us dream bigger. It's an episode filled with humility, humor, and yes.. human intelligence - proving that even in a world of algorithms, empathy still leads the way.

“Be a homie & let us know what you think”A beat can cross oceans faster than any plane ticket—this showcase proves it. We're celebrating Filipino producers from Manila to Sacramento with a curated trip through sample alchemy, razor-sharp cuts, and pulse-raising drum and bass. The goal is simple: connect you with artists worth following and give you a map to explore their catalogs, crews, and scenes.We open with a Filipino alchemist from Florida named Soy or Soyisreal then we feature a track with atmosphere and intent—Free The Robots sets a cinematic frame before HeruHeruHeru reminds us not to overthink a great loop. Elijah B raises the stakes with head-twisting arrangements, then Roboplex teams with Hendrik to merge live visuals culture with studio craft. KiNG HYSTERiA, Imaginary Other, Chewy, and IF1 light up the cipher, while D-Styles demonstrates why scratching remains composition, percussion, and storytelling all at once. The energy pivots into TKDPLL's drum and bass, a lane resonating deeply across Filipino circles, and lands on LUSTBASS and Filipino 1990 where feel meets message.From there, Six The NorthStar tightens the groove, Skeematic explores meditative texture, and 4B5ynth out of Marikina turns off-kilter rhythm into a hypnotic flip. Higher Ground's The PHARM brings collective firepower, Dpsht and Tenkousei.'s cool the room with downtempo warmth, and Skeptics and Ize pull dancers to the front with summer color and clever edits.

In this documentary, we revisit the early days of World War II in the Pacific: Japan's invasion of the Philippines and the rapid unraveling of American defenses under General Douglas MacArthur. We explore how a mix of overconfidence, scarce resources, and logistical missteps—shaped in part by War Plan Orange—led to a staggering defeat for Allied forces in 1941–1942. You'll see how the surprise strike on Clark Field knocked out air power and paved the way for a swift Japanese advance through Luzon and beyond. The film emphasizes leadership choices, supply challenges, and the intense morale battles endured by American and Filipino troops, including the grim stand on the Bataan Peninsula and the brutal Bataan Death March that followed surrender. Through survivor testimonies, archival footage, and expert insights, the documentary connects battlefield actions to their human costs, highlighting resilience, courage, and camaraderie in the face of extreme hardship. It also reflects on the broader strategic consequences for the U.S. Army, the Allied alliance, and the Philippine resistance, showing how these early battles shaped later Allied strategy in the Pacific. Whether you're a history buff or new to this chapter, the film offers a clear, balanced look at tactical decisions, personal sacrifice, and the lasting impact on Filipino and American memory. Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the bell for more deep-dives and expert interviews.

International Arrivals speaks with Filipino American artist duo Abang-guard: Maureen Catbagan and Jevijoe Vitug (Phillipines/USA) (https://maureencatbagan.com/) about their current exhibition, Makibaka, at the Queens Museum in which they use the 1964-65 New York World's Fair's Philippines and New York State Pavilions as an entrance for talking about the importance of 1965 for Filipino American labor history. They emphasize the importance of community archives and the interplay between institutional critique and personal narratives, aiming to reclaim and reframe Filipino American history. Their work reconsiders the importance of monuments, Little Manilla(s), The Delano grape strike, and pays homage to the bridge generation who came to find their American dream. The title of their exhibition, Makibaka, is a rallying cry: fight to live, live to fight, dare to struggle, dare to win. It's a slogan that resistance and protest movements used against the Marcos dictatorship and martial law during the 70s and 80s and has become the regular rallying cry of Filipino activists fighting against oppressive systems, both in the Philippines and abroad.

In this inspiring episode of Develop This!, host Joi Cuartero Austin sits down with her sister, Christine Cuartero, Co-Director of the Filipino School of Chicago, to explore how cultural heritage can shape stronger communities and local economies. October marks Filipino American History Month, a time to honor the resilience, creativity, and contributions of Filipino Americans across generations. Joi and Christine discuss how celebrating heritage is more than preserving tradition; it's an act of community-building, identity, and empowerment. From the diverse neighborhood of Albany Park in Chicago, Christine shares the story of how a group of Pinay mothers in education came together to found a school rooted in bayanihan (collective spirit), kapwa (shared humanity), and cultural pride. Together, they discuss how cultural education fosters belonging, how immigrant stories shape the economic and social fabric of neighborhoods, and how investing in heritage is a powerful strategy for local revitalization. In this episode: The significance of Filipino American History Month and why representation matters. The story behind the Filipino School of Chicago, founded by a group of Pinay educators to preserve culture, language, and pride for the next generation. How Albany Park's diversity is both a cultural and economic asset. How cultural spaces foster belonging and retention, key factors in economic development. The role of heritage-based entrepreneurship and cultural businesses in driving local vitality. Why bayanihan, the Filipino spirit of collective effort, mirrors the principles of successful community and economic development. Practical ways economic developers can partner with immigrant-led and cultural organizations to strengthen inclusivity and representation in local economies. Daughter of immigrants from Orani, Bataan and Quezon City, Christine C is an educator and community organizer with over a decade of service across public school settings and neighborhoods in Chicago and New York City. Committed to equity and civic engagement, she's worked with organizations like El Puente (NYC) and the National Center for Urban Education of Illinois State University (Chicago) to connect community based organizations with schools, lead service-learning initiatives, and mentor future educators. Christine is a Chicago Public Schools leader and parent, and co-founder of the Filipino School of Chicago. She currently works as a case manager at a CPS elementary school.
