Which term describes 'Obsession with American culture over Filipino heritage' ?

• A. Brown Americanism
• B. National Destiny
• C. Eureka
• D. Subliminal Message

Answer: (A)

This question tests understanding of how cultural identity can be shaped by colonial influence. The term described—obsession with American culture over Filipino heritage—is captured by Brown Americanism. It refers to a pattern where American norms, language, values, and lifestyle are prioritized over local Filipino traditions, often as a result of long-standing American influence in education, media, and governance. This concept is used to analyze how internalized colonial attitudes affect identity and cultural pride.

Other terms don’t fit because they point to different ideas: one suggests a future national direction, another is an exclamation of discovery, and another refers to hidden messaging.
