"43 sonnet" by Caki Wilkinson and/or "Because Nāmakaokahaʻi killed her sister at Kaiwiopele" by No'u Revilla for the poetry asks?

hi!!! thank you so much for introducing these to me, they’re really great

for “43 sonnet” first of all i loved reading abt how it was written anagramically, that was really interesting. and my favourite part of it is

“22. tentatively we 23. somehow 24. the loud echo 25. the détente 26. touchily 27. a wholesome vow 28. the old way 29. cue the wolves 30. the emotion”

it’s the buildup and then the release of it that i really like.

and I LOVE “because Nāmakaokahaʻi killed her sister at Kaiwiopele.” reading abt the context of it was really fascinating and it hit me quite deeply. absolutely stunning. i’m picking the last two stanzas because wow… couldn’t choose

“I imagine grandma explaining

how to brace against my own sister’s

bones. I’d rather starve.

Who will believe in this red, moaning cinder

if I never learn how to hold you?

If I am written as water and you as blood,

who surrenders in the poem first?

Can we kill the poem? Kill it forever.”

#thank youuuu #ask game #dotsunflowers

Inside the dress, there is a creature, she careful

is a cliff in a girl’s body. And the cliff was a lizard once still turned to rock she gazed too much like she

careful

had a kingdom inside.

How did the advent of US colonization change things?

How does the Second Hawaiian Renaissance’s legacy of nationalism and cultural revival distinguish its goals from the continental United States’ social movements in the ‘70s?

Revilla, No'u. 2017. “Ua mohala: notes on remembering our queen.” WordPress.

Revilla’s blog post reflects on the lasting impact of colonialism and Queen Lili’uokalani’s illegal overthrow and discusses Hawai’ians’ continued activism towards reclaiming their culture. We learned about the overthrow in Week 2, and placing our prior knowledge within the context of this unit’s focus on Hawai’i’s gender and nationalist activism will help our class advance our previous discussions.
