The Legacies of a Hawaiian Generation: From Territorial Subject to American Citizen
Autor Judith Schachteren Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 apr 2016
Through the voices and perspectives of the members of an extended Hawaiian family, or ohana, this book tells the story of North American imperialism in Hawaii from the Great Depression to the new millennium. The family members offer their versions of being "Native Hawaiian" in an American state, detailing the ways in which US laws, policies, and institutions made, and continue to make, an impact on their daily lives. The book traces the ways that Hawaiian values adapted to changing conditions under a Territorial regime and then after statehood. These conditions involved claims for land for Native Hawaiian Homesteads, education in American public schools, military service, and participation in the Hawaiian cultural renaissance. Based on fieldwork observations, kitchen table conversations, and talk-stories, or moolelo, this book is a unique blend of biography, history, and anthropological analysis.
