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 Yasmine "Yaz" Romero and student editors of Da Pueo Press, UHWO’s first undergraduate literary journal. Professor Romero discusses the origins of the journal, its mission to promote linguistic justice, and the role of aloha ‘āina as the theme for the inaugural issue. The student editors—Dominique (Doi), Megan, and Maria—share their experiences working on the journal, their hopes for its future, and the significance of creating a platform for student voices. The conversation also explores the importance of student agency in academic publishing, the impact of digital humanities, and the broader movement to decolonize English studies by embracing multilingualism and diverse storytelling forms.
