Join us on Thursday, July 22 at 5pm for our next Virtual Kahaukani Conversation with Maya Kawailanaokeawaiki Saffery. Inspired by her research on ‘āina (land) education, her presentation will discuss how mele (songs, chants) composed in ‘ōlelo Hawai‘i (Hawaiian language) are repositories of Hawaiian epistemology and can therefore become lenses through which to view and imagine how kūpuna (ancestors) might have explained and given meaning to contemporary practices like those within the context of ‘āina education.
