Charles Nainoa Thompson on this ASTC 2010 Keynote
Charles Nainoa Thompson is the chairman of the Polynesian Voyaging Society. He was also the first Haiwaiian in centuries to navigate a voyaging canoe from Hawaii to Tahiti using only traditional wayfinding techniques. Nainoa kicked of the ASTC Conference 2010 with an emotional and powerful keynote address in which he spoke not only about navigating using near-lost traditional ways, but also of the teachers that have touched his life and the importance of finding your way in life. In this clip, recorded just after that beautiful talk about loss of roots, anger, racism, the power of great teachers, and education, Nainoa talks about what was at the centre of his talk for him.
