“That should be shocking and alarming and cause for urgency.”For the report — the first released by the task force, which the Hawaii Legislature established last year — researchers compiled and examined data about a number of issues across state and community agencies in Hawaii, including domestic and sexual violence and exploitation.In looking at other inequities, the report found that more than one-third of adults who experience physical violence by intimate partners in Hawaii are Indigenous, according to 2013 statistics.The establishment of the whaling industry from those countries, for example, led businessmen to come to “expect that Kānaka Maoli women would be available to them for sex in exchange for material goods,” the report said, referring to the Indigenous Hawaiian community.“Historically, Kānaka Maoli women were the first to have their physical mana (spiritual power) controlled through violent, sexualized, patriarchal colonial processes of erasure, sterilization, and birthing.”Jabola-Carolus said many in the Indigenous community have long called for the armed forces to leave the islands.In recent years, Jabola-Carolus said, the debate against military presence has grown in part because of such devastating events as the leak of 1,100 gallons of toxic fire-suppressing foam from the Navy-operated Red Hill fuel storage facility last month."
