How the Land Speaks
Indigenous peoples are often valorized as automatically politicized collective subjects, backgrounding the precise mechanics of individual-to-group political formation. In the case of “Native Hawaiian culture”, a locally invoked category of norms, practices, and knowledge, this article examines its semiotic bases for motivating Indigenous resistance in Hawaiʻi. Beginning with settings of socialization and education, “Native Hawaiian culture” is t…
Insurgent Indigeneity
Celebrating Indigenous zones and movements of revival and "resurgence" has become a dominant frame of sorts for Indigenous political theory. Emergent Indigenous political praxis in Hawai'i, led by certain grassroots groups and organizers, leads me to theorize a qualitatively and quantitatively different modality of Indigenous politics—what I offer as "insurgent Indigeneity." This essay traces a genealogy of resurgence paradigms, presenting a set …
Endurance of Difference
Anthropological discussions of difference entail the question of how alterity persists—how counterhegemonic projects are sustained. This article examines Native Hawaiian media practices that subvert hegemonic imaginaries of Hawaiʻi as paradise, critiquing the political cosmology of liberalist settler colonialism, while also maintaining Indigenous alternatives of being in the world. While Indigenous peoples are indeed constituted by capital and se…

These films underscore the significance of prioritizing culturally specific protocols about knowledge production and it…

Capitalist Transformation and Settler Colonialism
Anthropological theory has approached Indigenous experiences of colonialism through frameworks of capitalist expansion or, more recently, through those of settler colonialism. Given their different attentions, these frameworks in conjunction provide a more nuanced account of the colonizing and displacement process than either does alone. The history of Hawaiʻi from 1778 to 1860 provides a valuable illustration of the entanglements of economic tra…
