Question

how will you assess these images and representation of native filipinos and their way of life​

Answer 1

Americans often perceive native Filipino's as similar to the blacks and native Americans in the usa.

Southern officers did not want to socialize with these Filipino's but they were obligated in going to the balls and party's thrown by the social elite, of the native Filipino's. The officer's liked these gatherings so they could not simply call them a slur during the events.
