Content note: This mini-lesson discusses sexual assault, drugging, and institutional responses to sexual violence.

In this mini-lesson, Cin examines the allegations in the Cornell 7 case and reflects on how sexual violence can become a display of power among peers. She discusses the civil lawsuit, Cornell’s Title IX findings, the reopened criminal investigation, victim-blaming, and institutional accountability. She also considers the Central Park Five case and the uneven way society applies the presumption of innocence. The legal cases are ongoing, and allegations are distinguished from established findings.

In Part 2 of our Hawaiʻi field trip, Cin and Asa explore three stops from the Lei Pua ʻAla Queer Histories of Hawaiʻi trail: the Stones of Life at Kapaemahu, The Glade Show Club, and the Honolulu Pride Tree.

We talk about māhū history and Indigenous understandings of gender, the criminalization of gender expression, queer nightlife and community at The Glade, and how two women who loved women became permanently connected to Honolulu’s official Pride Tree.

Queer people have always existed, but who gets remembered? Whose stories get erased? And who gets to decide what becomes history?

Hawaiʻi wasn’t always part of the United States. It was a sovereign kingdom. And the story of how that kingdom ended is a lot messier than many of us were taught.

In Part 1 of our Hawaiʻi field trip, Cin and Asa trade the resort itinerary for a history lesson. We’re talking about the Kamehameha dynasty, King Kalākaua, the Bayonet Constitution, Queen Liliʻuokalani, and the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy.

We also share what we learned visiting ʻIolani Palace and Bishop Museum, some of our favorite food stops, and why taking time to understand the history and culture of a place can completely change the way you travel.
