As Hawaiians continue to recover their language and culture, the voices of kupuna (elders) are heard once again in urban and rural settings, both in Hawai‘i and elsewhere. How do kupuna create knowledge and “tell” history? What do they tell us about being Hawaiian? Adopted by a Midwestern couple in the 1950s as an infant, Leilani Holmes spent much of her early life in settings that offered no clue...

A revelatory, myth-shattering history of one of the most influential musicians of all time, told in the words of those who knew him best. Very informative also like the graphics. Graphic photos are not necessary as this book details the truly horrific details of how these women were killed. Needless to say I'm in awe how Bloomsbury has managed to put together such an incredible project, with JK Rowling's remarkable literature and Jim Kay's otherworldly illustrations and allowed it to be put together in a low quality binding. It became my favorite story, with the cadence of the narration and the wonderful animation bringing the story to life. ebook Ancestry Of Experience: A Journey Into Hawaiian Ways Of Knowing (Intersections: Asian And Pacific American Transcultural Studies) Pdf. And, for the record, finding all the emblems and sensors well net you two gold trophies. The plot was non-stop, if a little chaotic at times, and there did seem to be a rather large number of megalomaniacs with sanity issues running around for one book. I expected a self help book outlining 10 effective strategies in 10 weeks but what I obtained was an exploration of self.

Aloha,I enjoyed the book. I believe it is best read in bits and pieces, dipping in here and there.The title, to me, appears somewhat misleading. It appears to define a destination of knowledge you will have after reading. Yet, the number of people sp...

Hawaiian past―images of which continued to haunt her even as she completed a master’s thesis on Hawaiian music and identity in southern California. Ancestry of Experience documents Holmes’ quest to reclaim and understand her own origin story.Holmes writes in two different and at times incongruent voices―one describing the search for her genealogy, the other critiquing Western epistemologies she encounters along the way. In the course of her journey, she finds that Hawaiian oral tradition links identity to the land (‘aina) through ancestry, while traditional, scholarly theories of knowing (particularly political economy and the discourse of the invention of tradition) textually obliterate land and ancestry. In interviews with kupuna, Holmes learns of the connectedness of spirituality and ‘aina; through her study and practice of hula kahiko comes an understanding of ancient hula as a conversation between ‘aina and the dancer’s body that has the power to activate historical memory.Holmes’ experience has special relevance for indigenous adoptees and indigenous scholars: Both are distanced from the knowledge agendas and strategies of their communities and are tasked to speak in languages ill-suited to the telling of their own stories and those of their ancestors. In addition to those with an interest in Hawaiian knowledge and culture, Ancestry of Experience will appeal to readers of memoirs of identity, academic and personal accounts of racial identity formation, and works of indigenous epistemologies. A website (www.ancestryofexperience.com) will include supplementary material.
