Episode 9: Vid Request & Reclaim Guahan Rally

Hafa Adai Everyone,

I'm sorry for the delay on getting this video out, though I hope you all enjoy it just the same. Last year, I saw a video on YouTube with a man who sang "Malak Na Pution Tasi" and "I Pution". I'm unable to find the video now, as hit has been removed from youtube, and would very much like to hear it again. If you or someone you know has/made this video, please let me know...Also, this coming Saturday (again, sorry for the short notice) there is a rally in Skinner's Plaza at 2pm. It's called Reclaim Guahan: Chule' Tatte Guahan, and is a call for action among our people in the face of our changing island. I truly wish I could be there, but for those of you who can, please go and show your support.

Episode 8: For Our People Off-Island

This episode is dedicated to those of us (myself included) that are away from home, either relocated to the states, serving in the military, or anywhere else your lives may have taken you. Let these songs remind all of you that no matter where you are in the world, the blood that runs through your veins is the blood of a Chamorro, and we will always have our Culture, Traditions, Language, and Values to carry with us. Being away from home should not and does not take away from our identity as Chamorros, and we must come together to assure that this holds true in the future.

In This Episode
Gurupun Minagof - Mike Duenas
Chamorun Norhtern California - John "JQ" Quintanilla

A special thank you to all the viewers on YouTube; over 6500 views and counting!
