With those full-figured hips features delivered through natural birth for generations and with those powerful arms reaching for the past calling on our mañaina you have remained strong throughout the years continuously inspire me to live my culture allow me to grow into a young Chamoru woman myself. Through you I have witnessed the persistence and endurance of my ancestors who never failed in constructing a latte. I gima` taotao mo`na the house of the ancient people. Hågu i acho` latte-ku. You are my latte stone. The latte stone (acho` latte) was once the foundation of Chamoru homes in the Mariana Islands. It was carved out of limestone or basalt and varied in size, measuring between three and sixteen feet in height. It contained two parts, the tasa (a cup-like shape, the top portion of the latte) and the haligi (the bottom pillar) and were organized into two rows, with three to seven latte stones per row. Today, several latte stones still stand, and there are also many remnants of them throughout the Marianas. Though Chamorus no longer use latte stones as the foundations of their homes, the latte symbolize the strength of the Chamorus and their culture as well as their resiliency in times of change.

  • Program and Abstracts
    CONFERENCE PROGRAM AND ABSTRACTS The Conference Committee thanks the following sponsors: 2 3 Warm Pacific Greetings, from Jacqueline Leckie, President of the Pacific History Association The powerful currents and pounding waves of the mighty Moana-Nui-a-Kiwa have a way of returning many people to where they or their forebears have been before. And so the Pacific History Association returns to Guam in 2016 for the 22nd Pacific History Association Conference. This is 26 years after PHA gathered here in 1990. Returning and re-voyaging connect us and allow us to bring new knowledge and new people to the shores we have visited before. New connections offer possibilities for the future but must have a foundation to build upon. That foundation comes from the past, our accumulated knowledge, ideas, conversations, art and skills from what we have learned from the people before us. More than ever, we can’t just rely upon the forces of nature to guide us back to earlier shores but we need guidance and care to make these journeys. Scholars and teachers—in the broadest and most inclusive ways—have acquired a wealth of knowledge and skills to face huge challenges. So we look to that past wisdom and to that protection to guide us into the conference, over the next few days. It seems fitting that the theme of this conference—Mo'na: Our Pasts Before Us—calls for a re- examination of the past to learn how this has shaped the present and may etch the future. The message of the conference theme is more fitting than ever for the renewal, enrichment and sustainability of our cultures and environments.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The Colonial Boundaries of Exilic Discourse: Contextualizing Mabini’s Incarceration in Guåhan A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Asian American Studies by Josephine Faith Ong 2019 © Copyright by Josephine Faith Ong 2019 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS The Colonial Boundaries of Exilic Discourse: Contextualizing Mabini’s Incarceration in Guåhan (1901-1903) by Josephine Faith Ong Master of Arts in Asian American Studies University of California, Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Keith L. Camacho, Chair Abstract The writings of Filipino revolutionary Apolinario Mabini, incarcerated in Asan Beach on Guåhan from 1901-1903, continue to have political implications today, as evidenced by Chamorro-led pushback against Filipino-sponsored Mabini memorials in the village of Asan. Much of this debate is centered around differences between Chamorro and Filipino memories about Asan that stem from the U.S. military’s containment and disavowal of their cultural connections. Using a combination of archival and oral history analysis, I unpack the persisting political implications of Mabini’s incarceration on Chamorro-Filipino historical relations. In centering Chamorro genealogical ties to place and Filipinos’ histories of colonization, I argue that restoration of inafa’maolek or mutual relations between Chamorros and Filipinos lies in countering the colonial division of their cultural connections and histories. ii The thesis of Josephine Faith Ong is approved.

  • ELECTIONS on GUAM, 1970-2002 University of Guam a Chamorro
    ELECTIONS ON GUAM, 1970-2002 Donald R. Shuster University of Guam Guam, taken as a spoil of the 1898 Spanish-American War, has since been an unincorporated U.S. territory in the western Pacific. Although U.S. citizenship was conferred on the island people by the 1950 Organic Act, the chief executive was not popularly elected until 1970. This article describes electoral politics and parties on Guam: candidates, campaigns, results, and analyses. The first seven gubernatorial elections are surveyed, and the contests of 1998,2000, and 2002 are described in detail. The 1998 race, an especially contentious one, was finally settled by a U.S. Supreme Court decision. The 2002 governorship contest pit- ted media power and careful strategy against activism and an effort to empower voters. As with many Pacific island societies, Guam's politics are colorful, faction ridden, and provide an interesting example of democratic process at work in a small-scale society. A Chamorro core value is the avoidance of mamahalao, the shame or embarrassment of a family when one of its members acts in a self- serving or confrontational way. Linked to mamahalao is the local tradition of respect for a patron-u person of authority, a protector, or a benefactor-who assists a family by providing jobs or other benefits to its members. For Chamorros, the most authoritative benefactors on Guam are the governor and the bishop. -Robert F. Rogers MORE THAN A CENTURY AGO, the Philippines, Puerto Rico, and the thirty- mile-long island of Guam were taken by the United States from Spain as spoils of war in 1898.
