Remember to Save the Date for April and May SWAPI:
Definition of Talk Story: “Talk Story (‘olelo Kama’ilio) is sharing ideas, stories, history and opinions. It is two or more people taking the time out of the day to slow down and talk. In Hawai’i it is just the normal way of interacting with our neighbors.” “And talk story means you’re getting to know one another. You’re stopping to interact and to listen and to really just share something of yourself with someone else.” source
So far our SWAPI Talk Story speakers have been Dean Uehara, Kalei Kanuha, Mike Spencer, Jane Lee, Norma Timbang, Stan de Mello, and Stella Gran-O’Donnell.
