How is mapping for abundance an act of defiance against cartographies of capital and commodification? How might shifting away from a worldview of scarcity to one of abundance manifest greater societal, cultural, and systemic transformations?

In this episode, we welcome Candace Fujikane, co-editor of a special issue of Amerasia Journal, Whose Vision? Asian Settler Colonialism in Hawaiʻi (2000) and Asian Settler Colonialism: From Local Governance to the Habits of Everyday Life in Hawaiʻi (2008). She is a Japanese settler aloha ʻāina, standing for lands and waters in Hawaiʻi by mapping the moʻolelo of places and mobilizing the ancestral knowledges encoded in the moʻolelo to protect those places.

Candace's most recent book is Mapping Abundance for a Planetary Future (2021).

The song featured in this episode is Spider by Gian Slater.
