Kamana-maikalani Beamer is full professor at the University of HawaiÊ»i-MÄnoa. In his teaching and everyday practice he is uncovering the restorative way in which most people of the Hawaiian Islands interacted with the natural world before colonization by the US. From the late 1800s settlers began by imposing sugar plantations and cattle herds that began the destruction of whole ecosystems.
Kate Raworth, based in Oxford, England, is the author of the book Doughnut Economics that has been translated into over 20 languages. She is Senior Associate at Oxford Universityâs Environmental Change Institute.
Kate Raworth puts out the challenge that we need to eliminate human deprivation and ecological degradation at the same time. Something that has never been done before. That, she says, is either an overwhelming challenge or an incredible opportunity to remember and return and restore and repair and re-invent.
She and Kamana-maikalani Beamer had a one hour conversation at the 16th annual Hawai'i Book & Music Festival on October 7, 2021.
