Abstract

Description

This interview, conducted by students in Professor Kim Compoc’s Fall 2024 Humanities 300 course at the University of Hawaiʻi – West Oʻahu, features Professor Uluwehi Hopkins, a historian specializing in Hawaiian history prior to the 1900s. Professor Hopkins discusses her research on mō‘olelo as resistance, with a particular focus on the kaʻao of Kahalaopuna, a story that evolved in response to colonization. She explores the impact of language, place names, and storytelling on Hawaiian identity, highlighting how foreign influences shaped perceptions of Hawaiian history. The conversation also delves into the significance of aloha ‘āina as both a political and cultural value, the role of colonial institutions in altering gender narratives, and the ways in which knowledge is preserved and reclaimed.
