Farnham Signature iii He Mau Palapala Mai Kalipōnia Mai, Ka ʻĀina Malihini (Letters from California, the Foreign Land) Kānaka Hawai’i Agency and Identity in the Eastern Pacific (1820-1900) Thesis by April L. Farnham ABSTRACT The purpose of this thesis is to explore the ways in which working-class Kānaka Hawai’i (Hawaiian) immigrants in the nineteenth century repurposed and repackaged precontact Hawai’i strategies of accommodation and resistance in their migration towards North America and particularly within California. The arrival of European naturalists, American missionaries, and foreign merchants in the Hawaiian Islands is frequently attributed for triggering this diaspora. However, little has been written about why Hawaiian immigrants themselves chose to migrate eastward across the Pacific or their reasons for permanent settlement in California. Like the ali’i on the Islands, Hawaiian commoners in the diaspora exercised agency in their accommodation and resistance to Pacific imperialism and colonialism as well. Blending labor history, religious history, and anthropology, this thesis adopts an interdisciplinary and ethnohistorical approach that utilizes Hawaiian-language newspapers, American missionary letters, and oral histories from California’s indigenous peoples.

Grace Julie Kaomea 2 We certify that we have read this thesis and that, in our opinion, it is satisfilctory in scope and quality as a thesis for the degree of Master of Education in Early Childhood Education. THESIS COMMITIEE 3 ABSTRACT In articulating the process oflocal decoloniaIization from prevailing models of children's litemture, the study surveyed participants focused on a Native Hawaiian community children's book project in Ko'o!auLoa, Hawai'i. Participants revealed how they worked and felt about the transformation of native oral space and self-narrated life in to written text in Hawaiian and English. Recurring themes address recognizing the needs of young Native Hawaiian children, collective positions on books in the lives of children, valuable stories, authenticity as a sense of truth, and learning and reading in Native Hawaiian language. Implications ofthe research include: I) the need for further research to be conducted with, for, and by Native Hawaiians to ensure that their worldview is acknowledged and put into cultural early childhood practices and guidelines; and, 2) the appreciation of authentic foundations of published stories and the knowledge they preserve within Native Hawaiian communities.

  • Hawaiian Aleyrodidae1 GREGORY S
    Vol. 25, March 1,1985 103 Hawaiian Aleyrodidae1 GREGORY S. PAULSON* and BERNARR R. KUMASHIRO3 ABSTRACT A key to the 18 species of Aleyrodidae known lo occur in Hawaii is presented with accompanying photographs. Each species is listed under its currently accepted name followed by the author and refer ence in which it was lint described, the date of establishment in Hawaii, worldwide distribution, natural enemies recorded in Hawaii, and a description. The first record of whiteflies (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae) in Hawaii was in 1907 by Kotinsky. At that time there were 6 species found predominantly on the islands of Oahu and Hawaii. Today there are 18 species of whiteflies distributed throughout the islands (Table 1). Ten of these species were recorded in the state for the first time during the past IS years. The primary purposes of this paper are to provide a key to the known Hawaiian Aleyrodidae and their currently accepted names. The key is based on characteristics of the 4th nymphal instar, or "pupal" stage. It is not intended for use with earlier instars which do not have the same patterns of secretion as the 4th instar and therefore cannot be correctly identified using this key. Since many of the characteris tics used in this key are based on secretions of the insect and not structural morphol ogy, they will vary with the age and condition of the pupa. Therefore it is advisable to examine as many specimens as possible before making a determination. Photo graphic references are included to facilitate use of the key. Specimens from the University of Hawaii, the Hawaii State Department of Agriculture, and the Bernice P.

  • Globalization, Native Resistance, and Cultural Production in Hawaii
    Remixing Hybridity: Globalization, Native Resistance, and Cultural Production in Hawaii Cynthia Franklin and Laura Lyons In the fall of 1999, the U.S. Supreme Court heard the case of Rice v. Cayetano. This case, filed by Freddy Rice, a white rancher from the island of Hawai'i, sought to invalidate elections for the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OH A), which, until then had been restricted to people of Hawaiian ancestry. The Court ruled in favor of Rice and his battery of lawyers, who argued that excluding non-Hawaiians from the voting poll evidenced a race-based exclusion and was therefore unconstitutional.1 OHA, established in a 1978 state Constitutional Convention, is the state agency charged with overseeing the crown and government lands of the Kingdom of Hawai'i. After the overthrow of the Kingdom in 1893, the Republic of Hawai'i, under Sanford B. Dole, claimed title to the Kingdom's crown lands and then subsequently ceded these same lands to the United States at the time of the 1898 annexation. The United States continued to claim property title to the lands, and in 1959, the new State of Hawai'i was given beneficial title to them.2 Revenues from these lands are held in a trust with a mandate to better the conditions of Native Hawaiians. The Supreme Court's ruling represented a refusal to recognize Native Hawaiians' special political status as indigenous people, who as a result of treaties signed with the United States, maintain legal claims to 1.8 million acres of land in Hawai'i.3 Instead, the Supreme Court viewed Native Hawaiians as merely one of many of the United States' racial and ethnic groups.
