Juliet Nebolon’s talk will focus on her book manuscript, “Settler Militarism: World War II in Hawai‘i and the Making of U.S. Empire,” which is a history of the World War II period of martial law in Hawai‘i (1941–44). The project analyzes the overlapping regimes of settler colonialism and militarization during this period, as well as the logics of race, indigeneity, and gender that intersected within these regimes. Her talk will explore these dynamics at work in the domains of public health and blood donation, domesticity and home economics campaigns, and internment across Hawai‘i and the Pacific Islands.Postdoctoral Fellow in Global American Studies
