Toward a Kanaka 'Oiwi Racial Identity Model for a Contemporary Multiracial World
Kourtney Christen Kawano
Diaspora, Indigenous, and Minority Education, v18 n4 p313-329 2024
This paper uses a Kanaka ?Oiwi (Native Hawaiian) Critical Race Theory (Kanaka?OiwiCrit) framework to conceptualize the relationship between identity and interracial and intraracial relations among multiracial Kanaka ?Oiwi youth. Kanaka?OiwiCrit is defined then applied to review research on minority racial identity models and Indigenous identity constructs. To address the gap in literature on the racialization of Kanaka ?Oiwi youth, a three-dimensional model that explicates how contemporary racial identities form under the social, cultural, and political conditions of multiracial societies afflicted by racism is proposed. Using composite, data-driven narratives, the model conceptualizes four major Kanaka ?Oiwi racial identity profiles: a state of ho?ole (denial), a state of ho?oka?awale (disconnect), a state of huikau (confusion), and a state of mana (power). The significance of geographic contexts in racial identity formation for multiracial Kanaka ?Oiwi youth living in Hawai'i versus the global diaspora is also explored before concluding with future paths.
