The Value of Hawaii, volumes 1, 2, and 3
The Value of Hawaii: Knowing the Past, Shaping the Future
Edited by Craig Howes and Jonathan Kay Kamakawiwoole Osorio
At a time when new leaders will be elected, and new solutions need to be found, the contributors to The Value of Hawai‘i outline the causes of our current state and offer points of departure for a Hawaii-wide debate on our future. The brief essays address a wide range of topics—education, the environment, Hawaiian issues, media, tourism, political culture, law, labor, economic planning, government, transportation, poverty—but the contributors share a belief that taking stock of where we are right now, what we need to change, and what we need to remember is a challenge that all of us must meet.
The Value of Hawaii 2: Ancestral Roots, Oceanic Visions
Edited by Aiko Yamashiro and Noelani Goodyear-Kaopua
Continuing the conversation of The Value of Hawaii: Knowing the Past, Shaping the Future, this new collection offers passionate and poignant visions for our shared futures in these islands. The fresh voices gathered in this book share their inspiring work and ideas for creating value, addressing a wide range of topics: community health, agriculture, public education, local business, energy, gender, rural lifestyles, sacred community, activism, storytelling, moolelo, migration, voyaging, visual art, music, and the AÂÂÂina we continue to love and maÂÂÂlama. By exploring connections to those who have come before and those who will follow after, the contributors to this volume recenter Hawai‘i in our watery Pacific world. Their autobiographical essays will inspire readers to live consciously and lead as island people.
The Value of Hawaii 3: Hulihia, The Turning
Edited by Noelani Goodyear-Kaopua, Craig Howes, Jonathan Kay Kamakawiwoole Osorio, and Aiko Yamashiro
In a world in crisis, what does Hawaii’s experience tell us about how to build a society that sees opportunities in the turning and changing times? As islanders, we continue to grapple with experiences of racism, colonialism, environmental damage, and the costs of modernization, and bring to this our own striking creativity and histories for how to live peacefully and productively together. Steered by the four scholars who edited the previous volumes, The Value of Hawaii 3: Hulihia, the Turning offers multigenerational visions of a Hawaii not defined by the United States. Community leaders, cultural practitioners, artists, educators, and activists share exciting paths forward for the future of Hawaii, on topics such as education, tourism and other economies, elder care, agriculture and food, energy and urban development, the environment, sports, arts and culture, technology, and community life.
