Abstract
Abstract This article traces the settler-colonial histories of Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL) in Hawai‘i and Antonio B. Won Pat International Airport (GUM) in Guåhan (Guam) to chart the role of Indigenous dispossession in facilitating ongoing carceral transits across the Pacific. Focusing on the March 2021 deportation of thirty-three Vietnamese refugees from the United States, it situates the deportation flight’s layovers at HNL and GUM within larger processes of racial-colonial violence that constitute the development and operation of both airports. In this sense, HNL and GUM reveal the palimpsestic nature of Hawai‘i and Guåhan as sites of colonial occupation that, in turn, are used to bolster the further transit of global US empire. This essay thus attempts to chart a critical transpacific geography that links the settler-colonial and carceral dimensions of US empire through the issue of Southeast Asian deportation.
本文追溯了夏威夷Daniel K. Inouye国际机场(HNL)和关岛gu汉(Guam) Antonio B. Won Pat国际机场(GUM)的定居者-殖民历史,以描绘土著剥夺在促进正在进行的跨越太平洋的移民过境中的作用。以2021年3月33名越南难民从美国被驱逐出境为重点,它将驱逐航班在HNL和GUM的停留置于构成两个机场发展和运营的更大的种族殖民暴力过程中。从这个意义上说,HNL和GUM揭示了夏威夷和关岛作为殖民占领地的改写性质,而这些殖民占领地反过来又被用来支持美国帝国在全球的进一步扩张。因此,本文试图通过东南亚驱逐问题来描绘一个关键的跨太平洋地理,将美帝国的定居者-殖民地和俘虏维度联系起来。
