Professor Kevin Fellezs has received an Honorable Mention as the 2021 Best Subsequent Book Award from the Native American and Indigenous Studies Association (NAISA).
The book, titled Listen But Don’t Ask Question: Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar Across the TransPacific (Duke University Press, 2019), shows the ways in which slack key guitar is a site for the articulation of Hawaiian values. Native Hawaiian and non-Hawaiian slack key guitarists are, in fact, collectively reconfiguring notions of Hawaiian belonging, aesthetics, and politics throughout the transPacific.
Congratulations, Kevin!
