Seeds We Planted - Portraits of a Native Hawaiian Charter School

Klappentext Noelani Goodyear-Ka‘opua is associate professor of political science at the University of Hawai’i at Manoa. She was a cofounder of the Halau Ku Mana public charter school and served as a teacher! administrator! and board member at various times during the school's first decade. Zusammenfassung The Seeds We Planted tells the story of Hlau K Mna, one of the only Hawaiian culture-based charter schools in urban Honolulu. Against the backdrop of the Hawaiian struggle for self-determination and the U.S. charter school movement, Noelani Goodyear-Ka'pua reveals a critical tension: the successes of a school celebrating indigenous culture are measured by the standards of settler colonialism.
