    The Color of Nationality: Continuities and Discontinuities of Citizenship in Hawaiʻi A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAIʻI AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN POLITICAL SCIENCE DECEMBER 2014 By WILLY DANIEL KAIPO KAUAI Dissertation Committee: Neal Milner, Chairperson David Keanu Sai Deborah Halbert Charles Lawrence III Melody MacKenzie Puakea Nogelmeier Copyright ii iii Acknowledgements The year before I began my doctoral program there were less than fifty PhD holders in the world that were of aboriginal Hawaiian descent. At the time I didn’t realize the ramifications of such a grimacing statistic in part because I really didn’t understand what a PhD was. None of my family members held such a degree, and I didn’t know any PhD’s while I was growing up. The only doctors I knew were the ones that you go to when you were sick. I learned much later that the “Ph” in “PhD” referred to “philosophy,” which in Greek means “Love of Wisdom.” The Hawaiian equivalent of which, could be “aloha naʻauao.” While many of my family members were not PhD’s in the Greek sense, many of them were experts in the Hawaiian sense. I never had the opportunity to grow up next to a loko iʻa, or a lo’i, but I did grow up amidst paniolo, who knew as much about makai as they did mauka. Their deep knowledge and aloha for their wahi pana represented an unparalleled intellectual capacity for understanding the interdependency between land and life.

  • Mormon Influences on the Waikiki Entertainment Scene
    Mormon Influences on the Waikīkī Entertainment Scene by Ishmael W. Stagner, II Before we can discuss the influence of Mormon Hawaiians on the Waikīkī music scene, we need to understand a few things about the development of Hawaiian music and its relationship to things developing in Waikīkī. It is normally thought that the apex of Hawaiian entertaining is being able to entertain on a steady basis in a Waikīkī showroom, or venue. However, this has not always been the case, especially as this relates to the Waikīkī experience. In fact, we need to go back only to the post World War II period to see that entertaining in Waikīkī, especially on a steady basis, was both rare and limited to a very few selected entertainers, most of whom, surprisingly, were not Hawaiian. There were a number of reasons for this, but the main reason for the scarcity of Hawaiian, or Polynesian entertainers in Waikīkī in any great number, goes back to the history of Waikīkī itself. At the turn of the 20th century, Waikīkī was still mostly a swamp, filled with taro patches, rice paddies and fish ponds. We have only to look at the pictures of Ray Jerome Baker, the great photographer of early 20th century Honolulu, to see that Waikīkī was, first and foremost, a bread basket area whose lowlands were the delta areas for the run-off waters of Mānoa, Pauoa, and Pālolo streams. As such, Waikīkī fed much of what we call East Oahu, and rivaled the food production and water-storage capacities of better-known farming areas such as Kāne‘ohe, Kahalu‘u and Waiāhole.

  • Bernice Pauahi Pākī and Charles Reed Bishop: a Marriage of Imperialism and Intimacy in Nineteenth-Century Hawaiʻi Quinn Akina*, History
    Oregon Undergraduate Research Journal 4.1 (2013) ISSN: 2160-617X (online) http://journals.oregondigital.org/ourj/ DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5399/uo/ourj.4.1.3121 Bernice Pauahi Pākī and Charles Reed Bishop: A Marriage of Imperialism and Intimacy in Nineteenth-Century Hawaiʻi Quinn Akina*, History ABSTRACT In 1850 at the age of eighteen, Princess Bernice Pauahi Pākī challenged dynastic resistance when she terminated an arranged marriage to her royal cousin in favor of a marriage to New England merchant Charles Reed Bishop. The marriage of a Native Hawaiian princess and an American foreigner at a time when interracial sexuality was heavily policed offers a rare opportunity to examine nineteenth-century attitudes toward interracial marriage in colonial environments. When understood within the context of imperialism, the Bishop marriage emerges as an intimate and ambiguous zone of empire. In considering the role of personal interests in private relationships and investigating how these ambitions manifested within Pauahi and Bishop’s marital relationship, this study ultimately argues that personal interests, both political and romantic, informed the couple’s marriage. Hawai‘i was a vulnerable kingdom during the nineteenth century’s era of Manifest Destiny. As a commercial acquisition and ideal location for American settlement, the Hawaiian Islands were an object of expansionist lust. According to historian Amy Greenberg, aggressive expansionism that unfolded in the Pacific came as the result of a vision of Manifest Destiny that celebrated white supremacy.1 Scholars of American history have already established links between white supremacy and the policing of interracial sexuality, which reached its zenith during the nineteenth century.2 It was not atypical for proponents of racial purity, for example, to forbid intermarriage on the basis of natural law.

    DATE February 12, 2020 RELEASE NUMBER 08/20 Outrigger Hospitality Group to Acquire Hawaii Island Resort The premier beach resort brand expands its footprint with planned purchase of the oceanfront Sheraton Kona Resort & Spa at Keauhou Bay HONOLULU – Outrigger Hospitality Group announced today that it has signed a purchase and sale agreement to acquire ownership of Sheraton Kona Resort & Spa at Keauhou Bay, a 509-room property in a prime oceanfront location on the Island of Hawaii. The transaction is expected to close in mid-April 2020, at which time the property will be rebranded as an Outrigger Resort. The investment is directly aligned with Outrigger’s strategic business plan to expand its presence in Hawaii and beyond, furthering its mission to be The Premier Beach Resort Brand in the World. “Outrigger is uniquely positioned to steward this exquisite oceanfront property; with seven decades of leadership in Hawaii’s hospitality industry, we have a pulse on this market and look forward to sharing the legacy of this remarkable place in a responsible and sustainable manner,” said Jeff Wagoner, president and CEO of Outrigger Hospitality Group.
