On May 8th, Hōkūpaʻa hosted lūʻau for the first time since 2019. As my first lūʻau as a junior, we were so happy to be able to share Pasifika culture with the rest of campus!
If you're a student from an island in the Pacific (like Hawaiʻi!) or one with Pasifika heritage, chances are you've heard of Hōkūpaʻa. But if not, let me tell you a little about our Pan-Pasifika student organization on campus.
This Indigenous Peoples' Month, Native organizations at Dartmouth are spearheading events that honor and celebrate Indigeneity in all of its shapes and forms.
