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.

OHA also has serious concerns over repeated inconsistent interpretation and implementation of your office’s statutory duties as well as the observable lack of consistent and reliable administrative support of the island burial councils. Our most serious concern is a refusal to comply with both Chapter 6E, Hawai‘i Revised Statutes (HRS) and Chapter 13-300, Hawai‘i Administrative Rules (HAR) in fulfilling your public trust responsibilities to our beneficiaries. The purpose of this missive is to call for your office’s immediate intervention into the issue of the installation of a private waterline in Kaua‘ula, Lāhainā, exempted from County of Maui permitting under Section 2684 § 4, 19981, Maui County Code, and of which resulted in ongoing 1 Section 20.08.031 - Limited exclusions.

THESIS COMMmEE Chairperson ii DEDICATION This work is dedicated to all those kUpuna who continued, through everything, to tell their stories. May we be wise enough to take the time to listen. I ka wii mamua, ka wii mahope. III ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Throughout this work I have been assisted, supported and loved by wonderful kopuna, kumu, colleagues and friends. Without the help of some, the work could not have been done. I start by thanking those whose voices led me here, the kopuna who wrote of their lives and told stories for us to hear. I thank Akoni Akana, for years ago letting a niele haole boy hang around and bug him for stories. I thank my first kumu, KI'ope Raymond, for helping a passion grow and for teaching me to slow down and listen. I am so grateful to Mehana Hind and all those at Kamakakookalani for welcoming me from the first moment on and for supporting me on what became a very bumpy ride.
