Show Notes

This episode of Fanachu features members of the first ever Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander Museum Institute who represented the Marianas in 2022. Six people from the Marianas were chosen for the program's first cohort and spent six months in zoom classes and one month doing in-person training in Hawai’i working with the East-West Center, the Bishop Museum and other institutions. 

Erlinda Naputi (Joeten-Kiyu Public Library, Saipan), Archie Ajoste (Northern Mariana Islands Museum, Saipan) and Elyssa Santos (Kumision I Fino' CHamoru giya Guåhan) were guests for this episode, which airled live on Facebook and YouTube on July 13, 2022 and was hosted by Michael Lujan Bevacqua. 

Episode was audio engineered by Curtis J. Jewell and uses music from Jonah Hånom and his performance at the 2021 Na'lå'la' Songs of Freedom Vol 5 concert.
