Igorots are still arguing whether they should be called Igorot. But for all its worth, some might forget that there are several points where they agree.
- They agree, for one, that Igorot means ‘from the mountain’ or ‘mountain dweller.’
- Secondly, they agree that there are several derogatory connotations attached to the name.
In the end, it’s all a matter of highland pride or lowland prejudice.
