黎剎 (Jose Rizal),是菲律賓詩人、眼科醫師,也是為民族運動奔走的改革家。他以鮮血喚起人民的覺醒,也換來菲律賓民族自決的曙光!
別了,祖國,艷陽之土,
南海之珠,失去的樂園,
我樂於把這凋零之軀獻給你,
即使再年輕,再健壯,再幸福,
我仍然毫不憐惜,把它獻給你。摘自黎剎,《永別了,我的祖國》
【講者簡介】
黃琦妮(Genevive Pajo Paliota Huang),菲律賓師範大學畢業,結婚來台,家住淡水。黃琦妮的英文說得優雅漂亮,曾在Tutor ABC擔任老師。她也很關心菲律賓移民工在台灣的生活,組織了一個菲台協會,協助在台移民工了解台灣社會,並提供急難救助的諮詢,並常常募捐物資協助家鄉的偏鄉小學。
2013年,她是外婆橋獲獎團隊之一的新住民,當年的評審會剛結束,她很緊張地問我:姐姐,誰會得獎呢?我好希望我們全部都可以回去!那一年,很幸運有長榮航空的免費機票和方大哥的贊助,三組外婆橋統統都回去了。她在家鄉宿霧拍的紀錄片(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXgfmUO76Ms),也讓我們看到她對教育的關心與行動力。
2014年,黃琦妮擔任第一屆移民工文學獎的母語評審。2015/12/14移民工文學獎作品集新書發表會,她帶著全家來到燦爛時光,以母語評審的身分致詞,開開心心和大家交朋友。
黃琦妮在燦爛時光看到菲律賓國父黎剎(Jose Rizal)的中文傳記,很想向台灣朋友介紹黎剎這位不上戰場、但運筆如劍,最終促成菲律賓掙脫西班牙而獨立的傳奇人物。
Chini Huang or better known as Gen is a 33 year old Filipina. A patriot, a nationalist and a philanthropist. She is a graduate of Bachelor of Secondary Education with Social Science as her field of concentration. This major intensified her passion in knowing foreign culture as well as understanding their distinctive way of life. When Gen saw the photograph of a book in mandarin version honoring Dr. Jose Rizal posted in Southeast Asian Bookshop and cultural center in Zhong-He (中和燦爛時光東南亞書店), she has the burning urge of conducting a lecture and open forum focusing on his role in the success of Philippine independence. If some Taiwanese people have the curiosity then this is more than enough to share his contributions as the National Hero of the Philippines. This lecture-forum is to be able to introduce the innate talent of the Filipinos and how important is literature in achieving change.
