This book was released on 2005 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the dissertation, I examine the ways in which the emergence of the contemporary native Hawaiian nationalist movement has shaped identity formation among Hawai'i's multi-ethnic population. My research results draw on twenty-two months of ethnographic fieldwork on the island of Oahu and incorporate a combination of life narratives, participant observation, legal interpretation, statistical data, and textual analysis. I argue that in the face of indigenous activism, land has become important to identity formation and cultural production for not only native Hawaiians, but also many non-native residents of Hawai'i. I show that the mutual constitution of indigenous and non-indigenous identities in Hawai'i influences both everyday practice and memories about the past. For example, I show that cultural practices deemed in anthropological literature and popular social narratives as self-defining for indigenous peoples, such as traditional agricultural work and native language acquisition, can hold deep personal meaning for non-native people as well. Further, examining collective memory in Hawai'i, I suggest that changing cultural, political, and econ0omic contexts influence the way history is remembered. Specifically, through ethnographies of public spaces intended to celebrate diverse ethnic mi[g]rations to Hawai'i, I argue that at distince historical moments, certain stories from the past become critical to the ability of local residents to develop a sense of belonging in the present. ...

Download or read book A Nation Rising written by Noelani Goodyear-Kaopua and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2024-08-27 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Nation Rising chronicles the political struggles and grassroots initiatives collectively known as the Hawaiian sovereignty movement. Scholars, community organizers, journalists, and filmmakers contribute essays that explore Native Hawaiian resistance and resurgence from the 1970s to the early 2010s. Photographs and vignettes about particular activists further bring Hawaiian social movements to life. The stories and analyses of efforts to protect land and natural resources, resist community dispossession, and advance claims for sovereignty and self-determination reveal the diverse objectives and strategies, as well as the inevitable tensions, of the broad-tent sovereignty movement. The collection explores the Hawaiian political ethic of ea, which both includes and exceeds dominant notions of state-based sovereignty. A Nation Rising raises issues that resonate far beyond the Hawaiian archipelago, issues such as Indigenous cultural revitalization, environmental justice, and demilitarization. Contributors.

Download or read book Paradoxes of Hawaiian Sovereignty written by J. Kehaulani Kauanui and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2018-09-27 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Paradoxes of Hawaiian Sovereignty J. Kēhaulani Kauanui examines contradictions of indigeneity and self-determination in U.S. domestic policy and international law. She theorizes paradoxes in the laws themselves and in nationalist assertions of Hawaiian Kingdom restoration and demands for U.S. deoccupation, which echo colonialist models of governance. Kauanui argues that Hawaiian elites' approaches to reforming and regulating land, gender, and sexuality in the early nineteenth century that paved the way for sovereign recognition of the kingdom complicate contemporary nationalist activism today, which too often includes disavowing the indigeneity of the Kanaka Maoli (Indigenous Hawaiian) people. Problematizing the ways the positing of the Hawaiian Kingdom's continued existence has been accompanied by a denial of U.S. settler colonialism, Kauanui considers possibilities for a decolonial approach to Hawaiian sovereignty that would address the privatization and capitalist development of land and the ongoing legacy of the imposition of heteropatriarchal modes of social relations.

Download or read book Aloha Betrayed written by Noenoe K. Silva and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2004-09-07 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1897, as a white oligarchy made plans to allow the United States to annex Hawai'i, native Hawaiians organized a massive petition drive to protest. Ninety-five percent of the native population signed the petition, causing the annexation treaty to fail in the U.S. Senate. This event was unknown to many contemporary Hawaiians until Noenoe K. Silva rediscovered the petition in the process of researching this book. With few exceptions, histories of Hawai'i have been based exclusively on English-language sources. They have not taken into account the thousands of pages of newspapers, books, and letters written in the mother tongue of native Hawaiians. By rigorously analyzing many of these documents, Silva fills a crucial gap in the historical record. In so doing, she refutes the long-held idea that native Hawaiians passively accepted the erosion of their culture and loss of their nation, showing that they actively resisted political, economic, linguistic, and cultural domination. Drawing on Hawaiian-language texts, primarily newspapers produced in the nineteenth century and early twentieth, Silva demonstrates that print media was central to social communication, political organizing, and the perpetuation of Hawaiian language and culture. A powerful critique of colonial historiography, Aloha Betrayed provides a much-needed history of native Hawaiian resistance to American imperialism.

This book was released on 2009-11-13 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literature Review from the year 2002 in the subject American Studies - Literature, grade: A-, San Francisco State University (Ethnic Studies), course: ETHS 220: Asians in America, language: English, abstract: “Settlers of Color and ‘Immigrant’ Hegemony: ‘Locals’ in Hawai'i” was published in Amerasia Journal 26:2 (summer 2000). This was a special issue dedicated to the question “Whose Vision?: Asian Settler Colonialism in Hawai'i.” The article constitutes an advocacy of Native Hawaiian sovereignty and talks about the growing tensions between Asians and Native Hawaiians in Hawai'i. Trask believes that settler organizations, such as the JACL, intentionally obscure the issue of justice for Hawaiians by stirring up hatred against native leaders. She bases her analysis of the question of Asian/Japanese “alleged support” of the sovereignty movement on the JACL’s reaction to her sister Mililani Trask’s claim that Senator Daniel Inouye controlled the sovereignty process by giving available funds only to his favorites, who are against Native Hawaiian sovereignty. The JACL, the Democratic Party, and the Honolulu dailies, so Trask, teamed up to attack her sister back, thereby obscuring her whole analysis of the real issue. Opponents of Hawaiian sovereignty accuse Native Hawaiians of “going down the race road,” but Trask believes that this is just a means of hiding the real race issue, namely the Japanese’s desire to keep their power.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume II of the final report of the Native Hawaiians Study Commission (NHSC) on the culture, needs, and concerns of native Hawaiians, this book contains a formal dissent to the conclusions and recommendations presented in Volume I made by three of the NHSC commissioners. Its principal criticism is that Volume I fails to address the underlying intent of the commissioned study: (1) to assess the American involvement in the take-over of the Kingdom of Hawaii; (2) based on the finding regarding American participation in the coup d'etat of 1893, to ascertain whether American culpability for injuries or damages suffered by Native Hawaiians existed; and (3) to advise about how to approach and answer any such Native Hawaiian claims. This volume of the report further states that critical support is lacking for Volume I's argument that the United States bears no legal or moral responsibility for the actions of American officals during the coup d'etat of 1893. After an executive summary, flaws of methodology, interpretation, and conclusion in the following areas covered by Volume I are discussed: (1) the historical review of American participation in the overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaii in 1893; (2) the conditions and terms of American annexation of the Hawaiian Islands; (3) the trust responsibilities of the Hawaiian Homes Act; and (4) the cultural and social needs of native Hawaiians. Recommendations are presented regarding rhe resolution of compensable claims by Native Hawaiians for losses of domain and dominion. (KH).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There have always been homeless people in the United States, but their plight has only recently stirred widespread public reaction and concern. Part of this new recognition stems from the problem's prevalence: the number of homeless individuals, while hard to pin down exactly, is rising. In light of this, Congress asked the Institute of Medicine to find out whether existing health care programs were ignoring the homeless or delivering care to them inefficiently. This book is the report prepared by a committee of experts who examined these problems through visits to city slums and impoverished rural areas, and through an analysis of papers written by leading scholars in the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Modern Language Association’s Prize for Studies in Native American Literatures, Cultures, and Languages Winner of the American Historical Association’s Albert J. Beveridge Award Winner of NAISA's Best Subsequent Book Award Winner of the Western History Association's John C. Ewers Award Finalist for the John Hope Franklin Prize What if we saw indigenous people as the active agents of global exploration rather than as the passive objects of that exploration? What if, instead of conceiving of global exploration as an enterprise just of European men such as Columbus or Cook or Magellan, we thought of it as an enterprise of the people they “discovered”? What could such a new perspective reveal about geographical understanding and its place in struggles over power in the context of colonialism? The World and All the Things upon It addresses these questions by tracing how Kanaka Maoli (Native Hawaiian people) explored the outside world and generated their own understandings of it in the century after James Cook’s arrival in 1778. Writing with verve, David A. Chang draws on the compelling words of long-ignored Hawaiian-language sources—stories, songs, chants, and political prose—to demonstrate how Native Hawaiian people worked to influence their metaphorical “place in the world.” We meet, for example, Ka?iana, a Hawaiian chief who took an English captain as his lover and, while sailing throughout the Pacific, considered how Chinese, Filipinos, Pacific Islanders, and Native Americans might shape relations with Westerners to their own advantage. Chang’s book is unique in examining travel, sexuality, spirituality, print culture, gender, labor, education, and race to shed light on how constructions of global geography became a site through which Hawaiians, as well as their would-be colonizers, perceived and contested imperialism, colonialism, and nationalism. Rarely have historians asked how non-Western people imagined and even forged their own geographies of their colonizers and the broader world. This book takes up that task. It emphasizes, moreover, that there is no better way to understand the process and meaning of global exploration than by looking out from the shores of a place, such as Hawai?i, that was allegedly the object, and not the agent, of exploration.
