Privatizing Aina with Umi Perkins | Iolani Palace Na Moolelo Lecture Series
"Privatizing Aina" - During the period of privatization of land in Hawaii (1840-1855), kuleana, translated as "native tenants rights," constituted both a right to, and responsibility over, land for Hawaiians. Learn more about the 1850 Kuleana Act, gathering rights, and the radical forgetting of place in the context of this pivotal period.
The discussion took place at the Kanaina Building at Iolani Palace on September 12, 2018.
