Haunani-Kay Trask blazed trail for indigenous academics

Haunani-Kay Trask blazed trail for indigenous academics HASH(0x340b300) Professor Trask died yesterday aged 71. She was the founding director of the University of Hawai’i s Centre for Hawaiian Studies. Emalani Case, a lecturer in Pacific studies at Victoria University of Wellington, says her countrywoman inspired a generation of academics and activists through her fiery speeches and fearless opposition to colonialism. She was strong enough to stand up and say things like This is not America, if you are coming to Hawaii, this is not America, we are not Americans, we are Hawaiians. She was this strong mana wahine who was showing us that we could do the same, that we had to do the same, we have to be strong, that we had to be staunch, that we had to be unapologetically Hawaiian, Ms Case says.

Time for US nuclear strategy to embrace no first use

Time for US nuclear strategy to embrace no first use It was one of the most potent lessons of the Cold War nukes are good for deterring others from using nukes, but not much else. Weapons capable only of spasmodic mass violence are too crude as a credible tool of coercion in most circumstances. If the United States seeks only deterrence, but not political advantage from nuclear weapons, then adopting a no-first use nuclear policy is not just low-risk it’s necessary. Most of the leading candidates campaigning for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination publicly endorsed a no-first use policy. Legislation requiring it has growing support in the US Congress. Indeed, it is difficult to imagine any scenario where the United States gains from using nuclear weapons before an adversary, especially when Washington’s conventional arsenal has global reach.
