I found your points revealing of the situation there. If you have time, I would like to email you about Guam.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br /><br />Valerie<br />yvalerie2@gapps.cityu.edu.hkmuttleyaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06477333515023166026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875725.post-19026554381896269272007-06-13T16:52:00.000+10:002007-06-13T16:52:00.000+10:00Hey Miget, I loved this post, I love the way you a...Hey Miget, I loved this post, I love the way you are able to explain these difficult concepts and relationships so clearly. <BR/><BR/>To Alex who posted the above comment I would say dear Alex, it exists HERE because Miget is doing this work. But I know his words are and will have a profound impact on indigenous studies.<BR/><BR/>When it comes to respect and that paragraph I think of our recent podcast and the question I asked you. Maybe it is the same as white people learning about whiteness, learning to hear the word and analyze the power and history of whiteness without the hurt feelings, the fear of personal attack. When I read settler I think about the hurt but I think it is a powerful word and a true one, and decolonization, even with mutual respect, will not be comfortable.Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06216109242586535932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7875725.post-58304813476165876582007-05-25T18:26:00.000+10:002007-05-25T18:26:00.000+10:00hi--i've been looking for something like this blog...hi--i've been looking for something like this blog and like your studies for almost my entire college career. i know the absolute minimum about chamorro/guam history, mostly through family oral history. Over the past few years, I've been casually, but consistently, searching for academic resources on chamorro history, and have had very little luck beyond government reports and 50 year-old books. It really just blows my mind that this kind of chamorro scholarship exists. I knew I would eventually find something if I tried hard enough, but I never thought I would find such an intense study with a radical perspective. I'm really intrigued now. Do you think you could email me a copy of your MA thesis (Everything you wanted to know...)? Or point me to some reading good for building a historical foundation to the topics of this blog and your work?<BR/><BR/>Thanks,<BR/>Alex (alexbeemacaroon@gmail.com)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14365243765109228782noreply@blogger.com
