Without Apologies: A Narrative Podcast about Dr. Haunani-Kay Trask

December 10, 12:00pm - 1:15pm
Mānoa Campus, KUYKENDALL 410

Without Apologies is a narrative podcast focused on Dr. Haunani-Kay Trask and some of her most important speeches. The project combines archival audio with stories gleaned from a decade of research on Dr. Trask鈥檚 life. The authors originally intended this project to produce a biography in the form of a book, and their decision to shift to audio storytelling represents a decolonial improvisation that aims to enact the kind of public scholarship that Trask herself modeled. In this presentation, Noelani Goodyear-Ka驶艒pua and Kahunawaika驶ala Wright will share parts of the podcast and talk about the process of creating it. Without Apologies brings the voice of Dr. Trask out of archives, and it seeks to connect her political analysis of militarism, gender, and Hawaiian sovereignty with a new generation of audiences. Goodyear-Ka驶艒pua and Wright ask how Hawaiian and anti-imperialist political aspirations can be uplifted through creative audio and other new media forms that honor 驶艑iwi pasts and futures.
