Political Science Colloquium

"A Personal Account of My Years in the Hawaiian Movement"

by
Terri Napua Keko'olani-Raymond
Community Scholar-in-Residence in the Department of Political Science,
Spring 2005

DESCRIPTION: "My talk will be a personal account of my years in the Hawaiian movement, from my anti-war resistance days as a high school student, the struggle on UHM campus to establish Ethnic Studies, experience in various anti-development struggles like Waiahole, Waikane, TH-3, involvement in Kanaka Maoli nation building, the early campaign to stop Navy bombing on Kaho'olawe, various anti-eviction struggles like Makua & Pai Ohana, work regarding iwi kupuna on Mo'okapu, and more recently demilitarization work with Ohana Koa, Nuclear Free & Independent Pacific & DMZ Hawai'i Aloha Aina."

OTHER INFORMATION: "Terri Napua Keko'olani-Raymond is a Hawaiian activist, member of 'Ohana Koa, the Hawai'i chapter of Nuclear Free and Independent Pacific (NFIP), and DMZ Hawai'i/ Aloha 'Aina, an island-wide alliance to demilitarize Hawai'i. Throughout the last 30 years, Napua organized Hawaiian resistance against state sanctioned evictions of natives from their land, fought the H-3 freeway that destroyed many sites scared to the Hawaiian people for the sake of connecting Pearl Harbor to the Kaneohe Marine Corp Base, and occupied Kaho'olawe Island to save it from the U.S. Navy's bombs. She was also integral to organizing protests in Hawai'i against nuclear testing in Tahiti. She is also supportive of the movements of Indigenous Peoples worldwide to oppose militarization of their homelands."
