Abstract
In this article, I examine the relationship between memory and the creation of historical narratives using the museum exhibit From Manila to Manitoba, hosted by the Manitoba Museum in 2010 in celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the Winnipeg Filipino community. The exhibit, designed and curated by members of a Filipino cultural group based in Winnipeg, had an expressed purpose to deviate from previous community histories by emphasizing the experiences of Filipino youth and more recent waves of immigrants to the city. Through a mix of archival research and oral histories, the curators claimed to have written a history that spoke for the entire community in a grassroots fashion. As I argue, however, the project offered a history that was mediated by the intentions of the curators and written in contrast to existing narratives in the community. This article examines the process of creating this narrative, and analyzes some of the issues in using personal memories via oral histories to create a normative narrative that is meant to represent a community.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
