"A stunning example of archival research, translation, and analysis, Remembering Our Intimacies is both a kāhea (call) and makana (gift), a truly inspiring offering to the lāhui and the fields of Native and queer studies. Jamaica Heolimeleikalani Osorio innovatively theorizes how Kānaka Maoli create multiple forms of pilina (intimacy) to manifest the responsibilities and possibilities of collective pleasure. This is the moʻolelo that queer Natives have been waiting for."-Lani Teves, author of Defiant Indigeneity: The Politics of Hawaiian Performance"With a fearless commitment to land-based love, Jamaica Heolimeleikalani Osorio channels the multi-bodied powers of Hi‘iaka to cast an intimate yet expansive net of relating that reaches across geography, generation, and gender. Poetically moving from Hawaiian language archives to Mauna movement memories, this book creates both a refuge for queer Indigenous politics and a map for remembered futures."-Ty P. Kāwika Tengan, University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa "[Remembering Our Intimacies] generously offers all readers a way to imagine intimate relations beyond the settler-capitalist constructions of land as property and love as patriarchy."-Lateral: Journal of the Cultural Studies Association"The prose is both provocative and graceful. It provides inspiration, hope, and encouragement to young people who are seeking the tools to (re)connect with their land, language, and ancestors-an ongoing, demanding process that cannot be accomplished without the support and strength of a community. "-American Indian Culture and Research Journal"In this book, the author focuses on the personal and embodied articulations of aloha aina to detangle it from the effects of colonialism and occupation."-International Examiner
