How does Hawaiian culture change when white settlers arrive?

History
1 answer:
Triss [41]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Modern Hawai'i, like its colonial overlord, the United States of America, is a settler society. Our Hawaiian people, now but a remnant of the nearly one million Natives present at contact with the West in the 18th century, live at the margins of our island society. Less than 20% of the current population in Hawai'i, our Native people have suffered all the familiar horrors of contact: massive depopulation, landlessness, christianization, economic and political marginalization, institutionalization in the military and the prisons, poor health and educational profiles, increasing diaspora.

When the United States military invaded our archipelago in 1893 and overthrew our constitutional monarchy, our fate as an outpost of the American empire was sealed. Entering the U.S. as a Territory in 1900, our country became a white planter outpost, providing missionary-descended sugar barons in the islands and imperialist Americans on the continent with a military watering hole in the Pacific.

Today, Hawaiians continue to suffer the effects of haole (white) colonization. Our language was banned in 1896, resulting in several generations of Hawaiians, including myself, whose only language is English. Our lands and waters have been taken for military bases, resorts, urbanization and plantation agriculture.

Under foreign control, we have been overrun by settlers: missionaries and capitalists, adventurers and, of course, hordes of tourists, nearly seven million by 1998.

Which of the following illustrates the concept of civic virtue?
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Explanation:

D is likely the only one that you can get rid of immediately. It benefits you. It does not benefit the society in general.

A is subtly the same thing as D. If you make the economy grow, the first individual who will benefit from it is you. That statement is up for argument, because you could contribute to economic growth without benefitting yourself, but there are better answers.

C The founding fathers would mildly disagree with you. They saw the need for government strength but not at the cost of individual rights. Again you could argue this as civic duty, but there is a better answer.

B The answer is B. The "common good" does not need to involve money or government. It is simply doing what is right for everyone.
