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.

    Reading American Empire in Guam

    “I Guess They Didn’t Want Us Asking Too Many Questions”: Reading American Empire in Guam Valerie Solar Woodward United States narratives about its island possession Guam have empha- sized notions of liberation and loyalty and uphold a picture of a benevo- lent and just America that provides freedom and opportunity to all who live under its flag. These narratives help to justify the current power regime and provide “authoritative narratives of the nation, delimit proper behavior of citizens, and sketch the parameters of the national imagina- tion”; however, it is important to note that “narratives of nationhood... are always unfinished projects” (Hein and Selden 2000, 3), and there are multiple channels through which a variety of narratives can be expressed. In this article, I examine texts by two authors that expand and sometimes challenge these narratives of Guam. The texts—Mariquita: A Tragedy of Guam by Chris Perez Howard (1986) and three poems from Craig Santos Perez’s book from unincorpo- rated territory: [hacha] (2008)—demonstrate how these two authors uti- lize and manipulate the rhetorics of liberation and patriotism in order to claim a space for their own distinct voices while dealing with the complex history of Guam, citizenship, and American empire. These two examples are intriguing because of the ways that they illuminate how US imperial- ism has cloaked itself through the rhetoric of constitutional law, patrio- tism, and liberation from Japanese militarism. Mariquita is a short biography regarding the tragic circumstances that the author’s mother experienced during the World War II occupation of Guam by the Imperial Japanese Army.

Guam Museum Permanent Exhibition Overview History of the Guam Museum The Guam Museum, officially called the Senator Antonio M. Palomo Guam and CHamoru Educational Facility, is the first structure built for the sole purpose of housing and displaying Guam’s precious historic treasures. The Guam Museum reflects the diversity, creativity, and resilience of the people of Guam and the Mariana Islands. The permanent exhibition is the story of the CHamoru people, told from a CHamoru perspective. It is hoped to encourage people to engage in dialogue, to share perspectives and experiences and debate issues that concern us all today. I Hale’ta: Mona yan Tatte: 90 Years in the Making The earliest printed record of people making plans for a new museum dates back to 1926. The Guam Teachers Association, led by Ramon M. Sablan, a teacher best known as the author of the “Guam Hymn,” asked residents and friends of Guam to start collecting their antiques and other artifacts for a museum that would protect their history and CHamoru culture. The editor of the Guam Recorder, one of the earliest publications printed and circulated on Guam, also called for the opening of a museum.
