Bumbai, We Learn is a zine series dedicated to exploring and celebrating Hawai‘i’s rich local art, culture, and history through an intimate, contemporary lens. Rooted in the spirit of storytelling, the series seeks to inspire a radical understanding of local culture—an approach often overlooked in the mainstream public imagination of modern Hawai‘i. The first issue lays the foundation by exploring histories of resistance during the Hawai‘i Plantation Era, highlighting the collective struggles, solidarities, and cultural resilience.
