My Kahiau Project was based on inequalities and relates to the U.N sustainability goal of gender equality and reduced inequalities. I believe colonization can relate to the unequal treatment for people of color. In colonization we see over 11 million people of color be forced into working hard. We see people of color be treated unequal nowadays as well where people of color are being killed by police. According to a research cops are 3.23 more times likely to kill a colored person opposed to a white man. Our conducted research also talks about gender inequality. In Hawaiʻi a big thing was wages and how people get paid. The wage gap for womens and mens page in Hawaiʻi is higher than the national figure but still wrong to have a difference in pay. According to the study black women get paid 71 cents per dollar paid to men and the national figure is 62 cents. So, I think treatment of others based on color and ethnicity can compare to our topic. The next thing I want to connect to is the silk roads to today’s world of trade. Although we may not have the official silk road we still have ways that exercise the use of trade. For example, nowadays we have bigger trucks that transport goods, spices, and technology all around the world. We in Hawaiʻi are very invested in this type of thing. We receive our resources from the mainland through shipments and planes. We rely on this type of trade/buying system just like countries may have to survive. Works Cited
