Iris shares their experience growing up in Hawaii and the islands’ difficult colonisation history. We discussed how one agreement with the United States made months too early missed them the chance to decolonise themselves under international law, the importance of fables, myths and stories in Hawaiian culture, the need to introduce alternative narratives to counter the dominant western worldview, a different way of looking at land ownership - one that doesn’t belong to people but Gods, the commodification of Hawaiian culture (or not), the impact of COVID-19 on Hawaii and a new Hawaiian political party. (If you are a US citizen, remember to vote!) To read more about Hawaii: The Legends and Myths of Hawaii by his Hawaiian Majesty Kalakaua.
