Josh is now in Washington DC and is Deputy Director of the Policy Lab with Elemental Excelerator, a global nonprofit accelerator for climate tech which was founded in Hawai'i.  His path from California to Hawai'i of itself tells a valuable story of 21st Century Hawai'i. And because Hawai'i was once and hopes to again be a place of sustainable agriculture, his previous work at the Trust for Public Land and the Hawai'i Community Foundation, leading up to the Mayor's office,  tells a story of the transformation efforts underway, and the expanding reach of the Hawai'ian Renaissance.   From Josh we learn about the landmark case on Hawai'ian property law that inspired him to go to law school; about the sustainable agriculture projects he worked on while at the Trust for Public Land and the Hawai'i Community Foundation. We talk about the dozen good reasons to buy local; about inclusive, community driven governance; and how politics is like surfing. Overall we get some info on Hawai'ian activist history, a fair amount of historical and modern land use info, and a lot of good wisdom about leadership in governing.  And finally, we learn what three wishes he would have, to help Hawai'i achieve its Aloha Plus challenge goal of getting to 30% locally grown food by 2030.For more info: Elemental ExceleratorThe Resilience Office of the City and County of HonoluluThe Hawai'i Community Foundation The Trust for Public Land, Hawai'i Credits: Sound editing: Keola Iseri of the University of Hawai'i, West Oahu and Rob PeraLogo design: Sue Woodard, and Waipahu High School student Reiko Quitevis Theme music: Waipahu High Schools students  Caryssa Shinozawa, Landon Guzman, Syd Sausal

I hope y'all are taking part in the massive organizing and activism that we are seeing. Special shout-out to my friends Ash-Lee Woodard Henderson, Carissa Lewis, Charlene Carruthers, Alicia Garza, and all the other Black women leading the struggle on the ground. The International Women's Network against Militarism Today's show is titled “Paradise Militarized.” In my show on Memorial Day, my guests discussed the importance of remembering all the unrecognized and unknow casualties of US wars and militarism. We talked about the lands that the US military is currently occupying and devastation to both human and natural life as a direct result. Today we deepen that discussion by sharing more details about three sets of islands in the Pacific Ocean. Okinawa was first colonized by Japan in the 19th Century and now is home to 75% of US military presence in Japan. Guahan, known by most people outside as Guam, is a current colony of the US, and Hawai'i was colonized by US also in the 19th century and was annexed as the 50th state in 1959. As you are listening, please ask yourselves these questions: What do Guahan, Hawai'i, and Okinawa have to do with colonization and imperialism, with anti-Blackness and liberation of  Black and other people and communities of color in the US?  We'll be asking you to rethink the various aspects of the military apparatus in the US, from the war-based economy and military spending, to environmental impacts of wars and military operations, and the systems, tactics, and cities' budgets for policing. Most important, we'll  be urging you make the connections between “here” and “there”, the relationships between domestic policy and foreign policy, and ultimately to imagine what real security, all the way from in your lives and communities to the entire country and the world, would look and feel like. Especially for women. I am in conversation today with long-time feminist activists and professors Lisa Natividad speaking to us from Guahan, and Kim Compoc who is in Honolulu. We will also listen to a recorded interview with professor Kozue Akibayashi in Japan. They are all members of the International Women's Network against Militarism along with their respective organizations. Dr. Kozue Akibayashi is a feminist researcher/activist and has worked on issues of gender and peace. She is a professor at Graduate School of Global Studies, Doshisha University in Kyoto, Japan, and a member of Women's International League for Peace and Freedom. Dr. Kim Compoc is Assistant Professor in the Department of History, University of Hawaiʻi at West Oahu. Her research focuses on U.S. empire in the Philippines, Hawaiʻi and Oceania; Asian/American Studies /literatures, as well as diasporic Filipinx Studies with an emphasis on Indigenous, Feminist, and Queer critique. Dr. Lisa Linda Natividad is Professor in the Division of Social Work at the University of Guam. She is also the President of the Guahan Coalition for Peace and Justice. She has delivered interventions to the United Nations on issues of militarization, colonization, and indigenous peoples' rights.

In this episode, I sit down with John "Pooya" Motlagh of Makaha, Oahu.  He's been involved with the controversial aerial shooting of goats in West Oahu.  There may be "contentious" statements made about the whole debacle and critical of the Department.  To be clear, this is an issue that I feel Hawaii hunters should pay attention to.  There may be no "easy" way to talk to these things but "it is what it is."  We're going to talk about it and just see where it goes.  That said, I'd love to speak to any Department or environmental representatives but I'm not going to continue to climb roadblocks.
