As thousands of delegates from Micronesia, Polynesia and Melanesia gather in Hawai'i this month for the 13th Festival of Pacific Arts and Culture or FESTPAC, Fanachu interviews two West Papuan activists who are attending the event in hopes of bringing attention to their struggle against oppression and for liberation, and to assert their identity as Melanesian and a Pacific people. This episode of Fanachu features Herman Wainggai, Executive Director of the West Papua Human Rights Center and The United Liberation Movement for West Papua and Happy Daimboa, a member of the West Papua National Authority sharing their hopes for the people of West Papua and the hopes that they can find solidarity with other groups at FESTPAC.
