| dcterms.abstract | Uncle George Naope told us of his friend from Kailua-Kona that we needed to meet, because she was also a student of two late great Kumu in his life, Lokalia Montgomery and Iolani Luahine. So began HPS’s journey with Auntie Hilda. She was soft-spoken and reserved, and had never done these HPS kind of interviews or panel discussions before. Through encouragement from Uncle George, she participated in two public panels hosted by HPS at the 2005 and 2007 Iolani Luahine Festivals in Kona, back when it was run by Uncle and Kumu Iwalani Kalima. We were also able to sit with Auntie for oral history sessions, as well. We treasured the opportunity to hear about Auntie Hildaʻs hula life as a Palace Dancer with Lokalia Montgomery and Iolani Luahine during the years they were each curators at Huliheʻe Palace in Kailua-Kona. We feel extremely privileged to have met and had time with this humble woman who deeply embodied her one hānau (birthplace). | |
