To wrap up Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, In Depth takes a closer look at the Native Hawaiian diaspora in New York City. The media often solely depicts Hawaii as a beautiful paradise, but the islands and their people have more dimensions than that. Issues within the local economy have led many Native Hawaiians to depart the islands in recent decades, oftentimes against their desires. Today, about half of all Native Hawaiians live outside of Hawaii. For born-and-raised Hawaiians who've relocated to to NYC, how do they keep their culture alive in the diaspora? And for indigenous Hawaiians who have never lived on the islands, how do they grapple with “not feeling Hawaiian enough”? Guests: Barrie Kealoha, performer and voice-over artist, Kini Kahauolopua, Manhattan-based chef, and Dr. Jack Barile, Interim Director of the Social Science Research Institute at the University of Hawaii-Manoa.

If you’re listening to this, you probably have a seven-year-old or a child near that age…we all know that kids have curious minds and listening ears. If you’re listening to this episode around or near them or are in the car with them, just a heads up that in this episode around the 40- minute mark we talk about Santa Claus and the magic of Christmas and how we celebrate and present that to our children. Just mentioning it because I want to honor that every family has their own way of celebrating holidays and traditions…also, listening ears and curious minds and all that. I invite you to use your own discretion. My oldest turns 7 years old this week. In honor of this big transition, I’ve invited educator Jessica Stack onto the show to share insights about this particular age. Have you noticed that your 7-year-old is talking back more? Or expressing defiance? Skepticism? Suddenly not trying or eating foods they loved before? Sensory challenges? Unable to sit still at the dinner table? Maybe out of the blue your child needs glasses? Or you get the sense that they don’t see the world the same as they did just a short time ago. This new Independence and defiance can really catch us off guard as parents…what happened to our babies!? The changes at this age aren’t all shocking…they might also be expressing heightened curiosity and a desire to seek out more in the world like wanting to know “the facts” about what’s the biggest, fastest, tallest, etc. and how things work. You may have also noticed they have a heightened sense of competition and comparison (wanting to be better than). Or even a resistance to learning because your 7-year-old tells you they feel like they “aren’t good enough” or can’t draw or write out what it is that’s in their head. If any or all of this describes you or your child, you’re not alone! Our babies aren’t our babies anymore! We’ve got big kids! And one of the best ways we can help them through this transition is to understand more about what it is they are going through. It’s really easy to see this age shift as a big pain, but Jess and I want to encourage you to be curious about this age and all the change that it brings. Jessica’s Bio: Jess is a Hawaii mom who has worked in public, private, and Waldorf schools, giving her a unique perspective on child development. She has a passion for the theatre, visual arts, food, and helping others. Jess holds a Bachelor of Education from University of Hawaii Manoa and a Diploma of Rudolf Steiner Education from Taruna College in New Zealand. She and her husband Will live on the island of Oahu with their two sons.

Featured Interview: Social implications of COVID-19 in Korea & post-COVID19 era -코로나19의 사회적 파장과 포스트코로나 시대 Guest: Professor Jim Dator, Department of Political Science, University of Hawaii Manoa

Arisa Rice was raised in a small town in northeastern Colorado, and after some college, she joined the Army as a Korean linguist where she met her husband at the Defense Language Institute in Monterey. They were stationed in Hawaii, where she gave birth to their first son. She proceeded to get her degree in Korean Language at the University of Hawaii Manoa while stationed on Oahu, where she also received her commission at UHROTC and served in the Hawaii Army National Guard. Thank you for your service Arisa. When her husband was discharged from active duty, she transferred to the Colorado Army National Guard and was commander of the 128th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment. She resigned her commission when she gave birth to her 3rd child, and proceeded to stay home and focus on raising her kids for the next 10 years. Her first experience with real estate investing was when she bought her dream farm northeast of Denver, she was unable to sell her suburban home for a good price, so she decided to try renting it out. She had excellent tenants and was able to rent it out for considerably more money than her mortgage. On the farm, she earns income by renting out land to RV and tent campers through Hipcamp, which is exactly like Airbnb except no building necessary. Some campers reserve one night, some stay for months, and this provided her with the financial freedom to keep the farm running. While working on her farm and tending goats, she began listening to podcasts, which got her interested in furthering her real estate investing goals. With her 3 kids all being teenagers, she was able to start attending seminars and in 2019, Arisa got her Colorado real estate licence and began selling houses. She volunteered at Adam Adam's real estate summits, and began working with him shortly after. Since them, she's made excellent connections, and found work assisting real estate investors. She is currently helping other investors develop online classes as she learns and saves for her own investment properties.   Thank you so much for listening! WE ARE SO GRATEFUL!!!!

He left high school early and worked in various industries, and over time began to use his art as part of his activism. This activism has included support work for the Black Panthers and Young Lords to participating in or acting in solidarity with farmers, environmental, labor, racial justice and peace movements. Increasingly he has come to see his art and organizing practices as means to address individual, collective and historical trauma. He co-leads workshops on trauma and resilience for organizers as well as trainings on creative organizing, social justice strategy and sustainable activism, and mentors and supports young activists. His art has won numerous awards but the greatest affirmation is the uses to which is has been put by grassroots movements and communities.” RLM Art Studio, 3260 Minnehaha Ave., Minneapolis, MN, 55406.

Born in Indianapolis, Indiana and raised within a working-class African-American family, Williams was a first-generation college student. His upbringing and academic experiences sparked his intellectual curiosity in social difference, political resistance and human inequality. Recruited to play basketball, Andrew matriculated to Earlham College where his experiences and exposure to Quaker values sparked his sociological imagination and passion for social justice. Andrew eventually left the basketball team while serving as captain in protest over Earlham’s investments in corporations doing business in South Africa and joined leaders of the campus divestment movement. For Andrew, this was the beginning of a deep and sustained exploration of African and African Diaspora cultures and politics, engaged scholarship, and political activism. Throughout his career, Williams has worked to balance and link research, teaching, and political engagement on issues of interculturality, educational equity, international development, human rights, learning abroad, placed-based learning and social justice. More recently, Williams has served as Director of Multicultural Affairs at Carleton College, Director of Development and Communication for Minnesota Advocates for Human Rights, Assistant Director of the Multicultural Center for Academic Excellence at the University of Minnesota, and Director of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion within the University of Minnesota’s College of Liberal Arts.”  hecua.org Resources Books and Blogs I’d Rather Teach Peace, by Colman McCarthy Louise Hay, You Can Heal Your Life Strength to Love, by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Where Do We Go From Here: Chaos and Community, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Radical Dharma: Talking Race, Love and Liberation, by Rev. angel Kyodo Williams Lani Guinier Why Every Yoga Teacher and Practitioner Needs Inclusivity Training, by Dr. Chelsea Jackson Roberts Nike’s Colin Kaepernick Ad Raises Issues of Workers Rights Videos, Documentaries and Films Keme Hawkins, Ph.D. receiving The First Decade Award at Augsburg College Greensboro Four, Independent Lens documentary (watch here) Colman McCarthy, I’d Rather Teach Peace Talk, TEDxGeorgetown Iron Jawed Angels Angela Davis on the Radical Work of Healing and Self Care Hong Kong Blessings, Robyn and Keme’s Peace Pilgrimage to the Big Buddha on Lantau Island in Hong Kong.

On this episode, I share some of these updates with a segment I call “NextGen Natives in the News.” This is a mini roundup of things I’ve come across recently that I think is worth sharing with NextGen Natives. NextGen Native has been around about a year and a half. In that time, we’ve heard stories from many amazing people in Indian Country. The fun part about building this network of NextGen Natives is to see the amazing things that previous guests continue to do, and learn about cool things that others are doing who are good candidates to get on the show. Jared Yazzie Jared Yazzie created OXDX clothing. Recently he was featured on a story by KJZZ radio station in Phoenix. The story discussed the growth of Native fashion generally and Yazzie’s work specifically. It includes both audio and print. Jessica Metcalfe & Beyond Buckskin Another leader of the fashion movement in Indian Country is making waves. Jessica Metcalfe, founder of BeyondBuckskin, the online fashion boutique and blog is opening a retail storefront in Belcourt, ND. The store will also include space for artists. The grand opening is May 7. This is so cool! Lawyers in the News Nikke Alex is a third-year law student at the University of New Mexico. She will graduate this Spring. Earlier this week, Nikke shared that she is receiving an award from the school during graduation. It’s great to see that someone that balanced her academics, work, personal projects, and more is being recognized for her accomplishments. Congratulations, Nikke! The other legal news is from someone I have not met, but their awesome news  is worth sharing. Kamaile Turcan is Hawaiian and is a graduate of the William S. Richardson School of Law at the University of Hawaii-Manoa. Beginning this Summer, she will begin her term as a clerk for U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor. This is huge! Supreme Court clerks often play a significant role in  first drafts of the decisions rendered by the court, or at least informing their judge’s thinking on key issues. It’s a great achievement for Turcan and a cool opportunity for the court to be exposed directly to someone with Native ancestry. Heading to GON? Consider Rezilience Event This weekend, ABQ is the place to be. If you’re attending Gathering of Nations be sure to check out the art event Rezilience. The event is being organized by, among others, Warren Montoya I believe. Warren held a similar event last year and this one seems to be bigger.

The libertarian philosophy upholds “liberty” as its principal objective. Libertarians seek to maximize autonomy and personal freedoms based on a foundation of an individual choosing what is best for itself. They are skeptical of authority and governmental intrusion into the rights of individuals. Libertarians argue that the invasiveness of the state and the abuse by law enforcement that is likely to accompany it presents a greater threat to personal freedom and liberty then drug using behavior itself. The Libertarian national platform indicated in 2008 that “we support the protections provided by the fourth amendment to be secure in our persons, homes, and property. Only actions that infringe on the rights of others can properly be termed crimes. We favor the repeal of all laws creating ‘crimes' without victims, such as the use of drugs for medicinal or recreational purposes.”The Addictive Podcast is joined by Sean Mitsui, President of the Young Americans for Liberty at the University of Hawaii Manoa who provides his perspective on the drug war as someone who stands up for libertarian values which are in direct conflict to the mechanisms that have evolved out of prohibition including civil asset forfeiture, massive incarceration rates, and the personal invasion of the citizenry often through violent means and profiling; in addition to 50 to 100 billion dollars in economic costs annually to the taxpayer with no measurable improvement in personal or societal safety.Resources:http://www.yaliberty.org/chapters/university-of-hawaii-at-manoahttps://www.facebook.com/Young-Americans-for-Liberty-at-UH-Manoa-209974032404810/http://www.nationalreview.com/article/383913/war-drugs-lost-nro-staffhttp://bleedingheartlibertarians.com/2013/12/end-the-war-on-drugs-now/http://druglibrary.org/schaffer/Misc/lp-rld.htmhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nLsCC0LZxkYhttps://www.youtube.com/user/TheDrugClassroom
