Indigenous Education, Settler Colonialism, and Aloha ‘Āina
Indigenous Education, Settler Colonialism, and Aloha ‘Āina
The introduction offers a brief history of schooling in Hawaiʻi from the 19th century onward and outlines existing conditions of injustice. The theoretical frame is established by discussing key concepts: settler colonial logics of elimination and containment, “cultural kīpuka,” “safety zones,” indigenous resurgence and aloha ʻāina (understood as a multiplicity of land-centered literacies). I also provide a description of the methods of counter-narrative and portraiture that I utilize in this book.
Keywords: Indigenous education, No Child Left Behind, settler colonialism, Indigenous resurgence, aloha ‘āina, kuleana, hoʻomana, Hawaiian studies, educational ethnography, Hawaiian sovereignty
