SUMMARY:Waves of Resistance: Surfing and History in Twentieth-Century Hawai'i
DESCRIPTION:The author of Waves of Resistance: Surfing and History in 20th Century Hawaii will be speaking\, following an introduction by Dr. Teresa Shewry (UCSB\, English) of the Center for Literature and the Environment.\nSurfing has been a significant sport and cultural practice in Hawai’i  for more than 1\,500 years. In the last century\, facing increased marginalization on land\, many Native Hawaiians have found refuge\,  autonomy\, and identity in the waves. In Waves of Resistance Isaiah Walker explains that throughout the twentieth century Hawaiian surfers  have successfully resisted colonial encroachment in the po?ina nalu  (surf zone). The struggle against foreign domination of the waves goes back to the early 1900s\, shortly after the overthrow of the Hawaiian  kingdom\, when proponents of this political seizure helped establish  the Outrigger Canoe Club?s haoles (whites)-only surfing organization  in Waikiki. A group of Hawaiian surfers\, led by Duke Kahanamoku\, united under Hui Nalu to compete openly against their Outrigger rivals  and established their authority in the surf. \nWalker also examines how Hawaiian surfers have been empowered by their  defiance of haole ideas of how Hawaiian males should behave. For example\, Hui Nalu surfers successfully combated annexationists\,  married white women\, ran lucrative businesses\, and dictated what non-Hawaiians could and could not do in their surf\, even as the  popular\, tourist-driven media portrayed Hawaiian men as harmless and  effeminate. Decades later\, the media were labeling Hawaiian surfers as violent extremists who terrorized haole surfers on the North Shore.  Yet Hawaiians contested\, rewrote\, or creatively negotiated with these stereotypes in the waves. The po?ina nalu became a place where  resistance proved historically meaningful and where colonial  hierarchies and categories could be transposed. \nWhile born and raised in Keaukaha Hawai`i\, Isaiah Walker is currently an Associate Professor of History at Brigham Young University- Hawaii  on O`ahu?s North Shore. He earned a PhD in History from the University of California\, Santa Barbara in 2006. He is the author of several academic articles\, and has most recently published Waves of  Resistance: Surfing and History in Twentieth Century Hawai`i. In addition to researching and writing Hawaiian and surfing history\, he  is an avid (and former competitive) surfer. \nhm 3/23/12

SUMMARY:The Role of Maya Catholic Health Networks in Guatemala's Armed Conflict\, 1966 - 1996
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Susan Fitzpatrick-BehrensCal State Northridge\nThursday\, April 26\n11:00-12:15\nHSSB 2252 \nIn the 1960s\, paraprofessional health programs proliferated in the\nMaya regions of Guatemala’s western highlands.. The programs\nresponded to medical needs in rural highland communities and coastal\ncoffee plantations where there were neither hospitals nor doctors. By\nthe 1970s\, Maya leaders prepared through these programs provided\nnearly 50 percent of Guatemala’s health care. With the advent of\nGuatemala’s “armed conflict\,” the military identified Maya leaders as\na threat and began systematically to target and murder them.\nForeigners engaged in paraprofessional health programs began to use\nhealth networks as a kind of underground railroad to deliver their\npromoters to safety. This medical network played a key role in the\nexodus of Guatemalan refugees to Mexico during the worst years of the\narmed conflict. It also played a central role in the provision of aid\nto Communities of Peoples in Resistance (CPRs) during the worst\nyears of the violence. This presentation explores the issues of\nhealth and activism associated with the development of these\nparaprofessional programs. \nvz 4/23

SUMMARY:Race and Immigration in the Era of Decolonization
DESCRIPTION:This talk will examine debates surrounding immigration in the United Kingdom\, South Africa and Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) in the 1960s and 1970s. South Africa in 1961 and Rhodesia in 1965 broke away from the British Empire and Commonwealth in order to continue to pursue racially-­‐based settler colonial rule. This was reflected in their immigration policies\, which aggressively recruited immigrants defined as white by the Rhodesian and South African governments as they sought to mount a demographic defense of minority rule in a rapidly decolonizing continent. Though less explicit in racial ideology\, the United Kingdom in the same period began to restrict immigration from the former empire with the Commonwealth Immigrants Acts of 1962 and 1968. In all three cases decolonization allowed the retreat from the universalizing rhetoric of the postwar British Empire to a racially-­‐defined nation\, visible in the regulation of immigration.\nSponsored by the Center for New Racial Studies  \nhm 4/17/12
