He puna-wai kahe wale. iii Acknowledgements This work could have not been complete without the kūpuna who kept me awake in the night, alert in the morning, and energized throughout the day. They have kept a hand on my shoulder in times of need and nudged me away from paths that do not serve my higher purpose. I must acknowledge the support of my ʻohana, the patience of my partner, and the dark espresso of Starbucks. Mahalo to Kumu Konia Freitas for reading every draft of this paper and holding my hand in the process. To Kumu Kamanamaikalani Beamer for lighting the flame of angst on my seat and to Kumu Noelani Goodyear-Kaʻōpua for your suggestions of improvements and warm smile in times of need; me ‘oukou nō kuʻu mahalo palena ʻole. To Kaliko for your patience and understanding in this journey. You have counseled my every move with unwavering support and grace. My mom, dad, sisters, tutus, bumpas, aunties, and uncles have been beside me this entire time. They have guided me with love and warmth. My friends have helped me along the way by reading drafts, steeping tea, and sticking post-it notes on my door, I have aloha and mahalo for every one of you folks. iv Abstract: Ka Lehua Within Western patriarchal discourse, menstruation has been stigmatized to be defiled, gross, and lewd. However, menstruation in a Hawaiian epistemology is sacred and should be fostered within the modern ʻohana Hawaiʻi. To promote Hawaiian well-being, this thesis explores the Hawaiian epistemology of menstruation, blood, and the purpose, function, and meaning of the hale peʻa: menstrual house. This thesis contextualizes menstruation through a Hawaiian epistemology and outlines the importance and difference of said epistemology to dominant Western patriarchal discourse on this subject. This thesis analyzes the literature and discourse of both Hawaiian language and English language primary and secondary resources. The research for this thesis also includes a focus group with a ‘ohana Hawaiʻi who conduct their own menarche ceremony. The findings of this research will inform families and young women on traditions and practices, both new and old, that may be utilized to honor and care for menstruation. v Table of Contents

    Neoevolutionism Leslie White Julian Steward Neoevolutionism • 20th century evolutionists proposed a series of explicit, scientific laws liking cultural change to different spheres of material existence. • Although clearly drawing upon ideas of Marx and Engels, American anthropologists could not emphasize Marxist ideas due to reactionary politics. • Instead they emphasized connections to Tylor and Morgan. Neoevolutionism • Resurgence of evolutionism was much more apparent in U.S. than in Britain. • Idea of looking for systematic cultural changes through time fit in better with American anthropology because of its inclusion of archaeology. • Most important contribution was concern with the causes of change rather than mere historical reconstructions. • Changes in modes of production have consequences for other arenas of culture. • Material factors given causal priority Leslie White (1900-1975) • Personality and Culture 1925 • A Problem in Kinship Terminology 1939 • The Pueblo of Santa Ana 1942 • Energy and the Evolution of Culture 1943 • Diffusion Versus Evolution: An Anti- evolutionist Fallacy 1945 • The Expansion of the Scope of Science 1947 • Evolutionism in Cultural Anthropology: A Rejoinder 1947 • The Science of Culture 1949 • The Evolution of Culture 1959 • The Ethnology and Ethnography of Franz Boas 1963 • The Concept of Culture 1973 Leslie White • Ph.D. dissertation in 1927 on Medicine Societies of the Southwest from University of Chicago. • Taught by Edward Sapir. • Taught at University of Buffalo & University of Michigan. • Students included Marshall Sahlins and Elman Service. • A converted Boasian who went back to Morgan’s ideas of evolutionism after reading League of the Iroquois. • Culture is based upon symbols and uniquely human ability to symbolize. • White calls science of culture "culturology" • Claims that "culture grows out of culture" • For White, culture cannot be explained biologically or psychologically, but only in terms of itself.

    Asia's Premier Event For The Media, Telecoms & Entertainment Industry 3 Apex Virtual Events in 2021 April 20-22 | Asia Pacic + June 22-23 | India + September 1-3 | Asia Pacic & Middle East APRIL EVENT GUIDE APOS SPONSORS APOS 2021 April Event Guide | 2 Thank you for joining us for APOS 2021. APOS, the dening voice and global platform for the Asia Pacic media, telecoms and entertainment industry, continues to evolve this year, to deliver 3 apex events that uniquely combine unrivalled human and digital connection. This rst event focuses on the Asia Pacic region with emphasis on the continued growth of the digital economy, powered by streaming video, and its impact on consumption, content, connectivity and technology. Consumer spending on video in 14 Asia Pacic markets reached an aggregate of US$58.3 billion in 2020, according to Media Partners Asia (MPA). This represents a robust 9% year-on-year growth, driven by 35% growth in SVOD revenues in the peak pandemic year of 2020. Total video advertising revenues reached US$56.1 billion, a 13% decline with a 16% drop in TV advertising due to the pandemic impact, partially offset by 3% growth in the robust digital video advertising market. Both TV & digital started to recover in Q4 2020. We are grateful for the insights and diverse perspectives shared over these next three days from platforms, content creators, investors, policymakers and technology industry leaders as they discuss strategies and trends from a local, regional and global perspective. On Demand, you will also nd valuable industry briengs & roundtable discussions along with daily sessions after live streaming is complete.
