Tuck speaks with māhū artist Lehuauakea (they/them). Topics include: 

  • Should you be going to Hawaii????
  • Being cornered, exotified and spat on(!) by white patrons
  • Native Hawaiian gender terms and cultural roles
  • The past, present, and future of kapa-making
  • Plus: Finding faith that the world will continue to exist, lol?

This Week in Gender: More about drivers license gender markers, including stats from California and another story from Rosemary.
