Gender Identity & Hawaiian Culture with Educator & Community Leader Hinaleimoana Wong-Kalu
Literary Joe – the pen name of Joseph Gharagheer, a writer who publishes articles daily for Best Little Sites on ComicBookMovie, AnimeMojo, GameFragger, Toonado, and TheRingReport – said that this might be one of the most touching chats he’s ever had on this show to date. Hina is an amazing woman and her journey of discovering herself as mahu is something she has explored through documentary filmmaking.
Joe chats with her about her new film Kapaemahu , as well as what the meaning of Mahu is, and dives deep into how Hawaiian culture has been Americanized by the Western World.
