By reading the poems of Teresia Teaiwa, Déwé Gorodé, and Grace Mera Molisa within a Black Pacific framework, I argue their poems model a transoceanic feminism to trace the continuities between Cold War militarisms and global warming.KEYWORDS: Black PacificCold Wartransoceanic feminism Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1. Joey Tau and Talei Luscia Mangioni, “If It’s Safe, Dump It in Tokyo. We in the Pacific Don’t Want Japan’s Nuclear Wastewater,” The Guardian, April 26, 2021, https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/apr/26/if-its-safe-dump-it-in-tokyo-we-in-the-pacific-dont-want-japans-nuclear-wastewater (accessed March 24, 2023).2. Since writing this essay, Japan has proceeded with dumping its nuclear wastewater into the Pacific, provoking grassroots protests across South Korea, Fiji, and within Japan itself. Japan’s decision also has incurred condemnation from Pacific leaders, including the Melanesian Spearhead Group (MSG), which noted that Japan proceeded with dumping nuclear wastewater before a scientific team from the Pacific Islands Forum could validate the safety of the wastewater disposal plan approved by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). On Fiji protests and the MSG’s disapproval, see Ravindra Singh Prasad, “Fiji: Outrage at Japan Dumping Fukushima Waters into the Pacific Ocean,” IDN – InDepth News, August 26, 2023, https://indepthnews.net/fiji-outrage-at-japan-dumping-fukushima-waters-into-the-pacific-ocean/.3.

Quito Swan’s work shows how groups such as the Women’s Wing, led by Hilda Lini, aligned Indigenous Pasifik movements with Black Power in the Pacific while insisting on the centering of women’s rights in achieving liberation.
