*This post was written in partnership with our Cultures Connected ERG, learn more about them [here](https://blog.populusgroup.com/author/cultures-connected-erg).* October was chosen to commemorate the arrival of the first Filipinos who landed in what is now Morro Bay, California on October 18, 1587. To kick off the celebration of [**Filipino American History Month**](https://www.escco.org/HowtoCelebrateFilipinoAmericanHistoryMonth.aspx) this October, we pay tribute to all inspiring Filipinas! Mabuhay is described by [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mabuhay) as the Filipino phrase that carries various meanings including "long live", "may you live", "cheers", "welcome", and "[hurrah](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurrah)". Mabuhay to the native females from the Philippines and females of Filipino descent from all parts of the world who have shared great contributions empowering other women for many decades! We would like to highlight some of them during our Filipino American History month, which is also referred by some as Filipino American Heritage Month. Let’s start with some historical Filipinas whose achievements have been notably attributed for their pride and influence, carried over generation to generation.[![Photo of a postage stamp featuring Gabriela Silang](https://blog.populusgroup.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Mabuhay%20Our%20Filipinas/Gabriela%20Silang.jpg?width=220&name=Gabriela%20Silang.jpg)](https://www.encyclopedia.com/women/encyclopedias-almanacs-transcripts-and-maps/silang-gabriela-1731-1763) *(Gabriela Silang, photo credit Wikipedia)* [**Gabriela Silang**](https://www.encyclopedia.com/women/encyclopedias-almanacs-transcripts-and-maps/silang-gabriela-1731-1763)**,** known as “the first Filipina to lead an uprising against a foreign power.” Silang was a fearless Ilocaña warrior who assumed her husband’s role as commander of rebel troops after his assassination in 1763.

Her portrait graced the ₱100 bill from the English series from 1951 to 1966. Known for her bravery as she stood up against Spanish Authorities, unwilling to give up the location of [Katipunans](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katipunan) and for caring for [Filipino](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filipino_people)revolutionary leader, Andres Bonifacio and other Katipuneros in 1896. She was deported back to Guam for withholding information, even after intense interrogations.

She was also the first and only woman to lead troops in the Visayas during the revolution.

Working as an intelligence officer, Leones repeatedly risked her life to carry important intelligence data, vital radio parts and medical supplies through heavily garrisoned enemy-held territory. --- In addition to history, we also celebrate Filipino heritage, which is solely about cultural traditions handed down from the past. So along with the examples of Filipinas making history, there comes the influence of bravery and courage instilled in our young Filipinas today. **Check out the following resources to learn about some of these Filipinas earning world-wide credit for their recent accomplishments:** **[The Philippines Wins Its First Olympic Gold After Nearly 100 Years Of Trying](https://www.npr.org/sections/tokyo-olympics-live-updates/2021/07/26/1020710023/the-philippines-wins-its-first-ever-olympic-gold-after-nearly-100-years-of-tryin)**[**![Photo of weightlifter Hidilyn Diaz](https://blog.populusgroup.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Mabuhay%20Our%20Filipinas/Hidilyn%20Diaz.jpg?width=500&name=Hidilyn%20Diaz.jpg)**](https://www.npr.org/sections/tokyo-olympics-live-updates/2021/07/26/1020710023/the-philippines-wins-its-first-ever-olympic-gold-after-nearly-100-years-of-tryin) *Weightlifter Hidilyn Diaz (photo credit NPR)*   **[FILIPINO teen tennis ace, Alex M.
