Asian Journal- The Filipino-American Community Newspaper

THE mission of Visual Communications is to promote intercultural understanding through the creation, presentation, preservation and support of media works by and about Asian Pacific Americans. Visual Communications was created with the understanding that media and the arts are important vehicles to organize and empower communities, build connections between generations, challenge perspectives, and create an environment for critical thinking, necessary to build a more just and humane society.

STARTED by a father and daughter team three years ago, Katipunan-USA’s main goal is to bring necessary change to the Philippines with its humanitarian projects. Our non-profit organization has sent books to Filipino elementary and high schools, raised money for a Filipino orphanage in Cabanatuan City, and brought a Filipina teacher to the US for free health care and lodging in its three year existence. Our projects have been written about in The Orange County Register, Los Angeles Times, Ang Periyodiko, The Asian Journal, and other newspapers and magazines.
