DESCRIPTION:The multivalent Hawaiian concept of kuleana refers to responsi
 bility and privilege\, with further meanings that reference land and famil
 ial relations.  Kuleana has become a defining value and orientation in the
  decolonization of archaeology and anthropology in Hawai‘i\, in line wit
 h ‘Ōiwi (Indigenous Hawaiian) research methodologies as practiced in th
 e university and in the community.  This talk will make the case for a “
 kuleana anthropology” that foregrounds responsibility and relationality 
 in community and ‘āina (lived and living environments) by discussing th
 e North Shore Field School\, a 9-year collaboration between the University
  of Hawai‘i at Mānoa\, the Kamehameha Schools (a Native Hawaiian educat
 ional institution)\, and the Waialua Hawaiian Civic Club.  Initiated as an
  archaeological methods training program in 2012\, it shifted in 2017 to b
 ecome a collaborative collection and curation of oral histories from the N
 orth Shore on O‘ahu.  While located specifically in Hawai‘i\, this fie
 ld school and its articulation of kuleana anthropology point to broader Na
 tive Pacific resurgences of sovereignty and lifeways that are transforming
  the discipline in Oceania.\n\nPlease join us on Zoom for this presenation
