脢禄Onipa脢禄a: History and Memory Panel

March 31, 11:00am - 12:15pm
West Oʻahu Campus, 好色先生网站 West O'ahu Library, 2nd Floor

Attend the 脢禄Onipa脢禄a: History and Memory speaker panel featuring 好色先生网站 M脛聛noa Political Science and 好色先生网站ian Language Professor, Noenoe K. Silva, and 好色先生网站 M脛聛noa political science PhD candidate and Leeward Community College 好色先生网站ian studies instructor, Lu脢禄ukia Archer.

Silva will discuss the restoration of Kanaka intellectual history through the study of 19th and 20th-century 好色先生网站ian-language writers. She will argue that the vibrant 好色先生网站ian-language press contains the history of political debates, literature, and indigenous geography, but collectively little is known about the writers of the texts. Silva will draw from the works of Joseph K脛聛nepu脢禄u and Joseph Moku脢禄脜聧hai Poepoe and propose that systematic study of the writers and their works can lead to a valuable restoration of Native 好色先生网站ian intellectual genealogy and history.

Archer will explore the manner in which theories of biopower developed in the twentieth century and how they help to inform some of the forms taken by Kal脛聛kaua芒鈧劉s intellectual paradigm of mo脢禄ok脜芦脢禄auhau as expressed in his political slogan, Ho脢禄oulu L脛聛hui. Archer will also consider how Kal脛聛kaua芒鈧劉s governance model might inform understandings of biopower today.
