On July 23, two several hours north of San Francisco in a Yuba City park, around 200 folks braved the 100-diploma heat to celebrate the 78th Guam Liberation Day hosted by the Northern California area’s CHamoru neighborhood and customers of St. Isidores Church.
Manny Crisostomo established up his transportable image studio on the dirt and grass in the shade of the redwood trees to photograph CHamorus for his ongoing visible documentary “Manaotao Sanlagu: CHamorus from the Marianas,” translated as “our folks, the CHamorus, overseas.”
