Panelists: • Kolokesa Mahina-Tuai, Co-founder, Lagi-Maama Academy and Consultancy • Joy Enomoto, Visual artist, kia’i and scholar • Brandie Macdonald, Senior Director of Decolonizing Initiatives, San Diego Museum of Us Moderator: Noelle M.K.Y. Kahanu, Associate Specialist, Public Humanities & Native Hawaiian Programs, Department of American Studies, University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa Please join us for an engaging panel discussion featuring native women whose work and scholarship raise critical questions about the role and nature of digital curation in an indigenous context. Does virtual access promote or impede physical connectivity? How do issues of consent factor into digital content? How might digital repatriation impact the return of taonga or mea waiwai (cultural items)? And what innovative programming opportunities exist for indigenous communities?
