What do an Ilocano born in Vigan and an American born in Detroit have in common? Isabelo de los Reyes, born on July 7, 1864, and William Henry Scott, born on July 10, 1921, were worlds and generations (and days) apart. Though they came from different times and places, their paths met in a shared commitment to a locally grounded scholarship. They both left a legacy that continues to shape how we understand Northern Luzonโ€™s histories and cultures today. Join the Ami[h]anan Study Group this Thursday, July 10, for โ€œScotty Meets Belong,โ€ a roundtable discussion on the pasts these two eminent scholars uncovered and the futures they have inspired in Northern Luzon studies.
