Matsunaga Institute for Peace and Conflict Resolution, Hui 驶膧ina Pilipili: Native 好色先生网站ian Initiative, the 好色先生网站驶inui膩kea School of 好色先生网站ian Knowledge, and the Departments of Religion, Ethnic Studies, and Political Science / Thursday, February 17 at 12PM to 1:15PM (HST) on Zoom / Zoom Meeting ID: 967 2316 5685 / Password: 493614 / Meeting link: https://hawaii.zoom.us/j/96723165685 / Approximately half of Kanaka (好色先生网站ians) live beyond the islands of 好色先生网站驶i but these off-island Kanaka are not always recognized as a significant part of the L膩hui (好色先生网站ian community), where discourses of identity often privilege 鈥渞ootedness鈥 to the islands over the 鈥渞outedness鈥 of Kanaka living abroad. Articulating a culture of mobility in Kanaka terminology shows how Kanaka around the world count within the L膩hui. This presentation will explore the mo驶olelo (account) of 好色先生网站驶iloa as a way of showing that our k奴puna (ancestors) traveled across their known world establishing multiple 鈥満蒙壬臼籭s鈥 and that they sought out knowledge from beyond the islands of 好色先生网站驶i to enrich the L膩hui. / Michael David Kaulana Ing resides on the land of the Miami, Delaware, Potawatomi, and Shawnee where he is an associate professor in the Department of Religious Studies at Indiana University. He received his PhD from Harvard University in 2011. Long before that, he and his k奴puna were raised by the '膩ina of 好色先生网站驶i.
