    I have been waiting for a book like this to come out in a long time
  

*by E***D on Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2016*

FINALLY!FINALLY!FINALLY! I have been waiting for a book like this to come out in a long time! The colonial mentality is the single most pressing issue facing Filipinos around the world. It is a shame that the Colonial media in the Philippines doesn't talk about this issue. From all the skin whitening products and the ignorance of Indigenous culture , E.J.R. David tells in his work why this is so. He shows the psychological underpinnings in what was came to be known as the "Colonial Mentality". He gives you the history of this phenomenon and gives solutions that would help Filipinos get out of the colonial mentality. The first step in solving a problem is recognizing that there is a problem. One of the biggest revelations I found in this book is how many Filipinos suffer from depression. Filipinos in America have a shockingly high rate of suicide among all other Asian groups. I think this is related to a lack of a firm identity. Many Filipinos don't know who they are. They're confused. They don't know they were descendants of great sea farers who navigated the world before the Europeans did.In this book you will come across the word "Kapwa" which means essence of being. You will also know about the concept of "Utang na Loob" which is the concept of giving back to your brethren. I think part of the colonial mentality is a lack of understanding the concept of "Utang na Loob". So many Filipinos are too materialistic these days that they are too concerned with getting ahead of their own people instead of helping their people. I hope you share this with your friends and family. Mabuhay ang lahi! Mabuhay ang Kayumanggi! Salamat!!!

    Helps to decolonize your mind

Great read! Totally recommend it- it applies to all colonized cultures. I’m Latinx and it applies to my culture as well.
