Appropriation vs. Appreciation
This panel discussion, hosted by Havana Nguyen, delves into sensitive and crucial topics surrounding cultural appropriation and appreciation. The conversation features insights from various speakers, including UX designer and activist Havana Nguyen, our very own founder Moana McAdams, fashion designer and cultural activitst Kanoelani Davis, hip hop artist and activist Jason Chu, Phd Candidate V Pauahi Souze, and falsetto musician Kamakakehau.
Each panelist shares their experiences and perspectives on how to approach and respect different cultures, emphasizing the importance of understanding history, building relationships, and showing genuine appreciation rather than just consumption. The discussion also covers practical advice for visitors to Hawaii, the implications of cultural erasure, and the evolving nature of cultural interactions in today's globalized world. Key takeaways include the necessity of actively learning from and respecting the source culture, bringing something of value to the culture you are interacting with, and the harm that appropriation can cause to marginalized communities.
