Thanks Aunty! Attending the meeting at OHA taught me alot. Opened my eyes to more issues and gave me more information and what needs to be done for the future...
I saw on a film about hawaii Sovereignty that someone had an Index of kuleana and/or deeded lands from way back that had families names on it fro the 1800's. Where do you get a copy of that index. Is it the same as the Mahele book in the Archives???
After consulting with experts and extensive research concerning the identification of the Ceded Lands, the legal mechanism to return these lands to their rightful owners, and who those individuals are who are rightly entitled to the lands, prelininary conclusions to these questions have been reached. Attorneys best qualified to accomplish this objective have been approached, they have reviewed the issues, and they have devised a strategy for success.
The strategy that has been devised has never been previously utilized in Hawaii, but has been used elsewhere with tremendous success. These legal experts are willing to persue this matter and discussions are ongoing to secure their representation. Prominent leaders from the Hawaiian community are involved. If the representation of this legal team is secured, this fact will be widely disseminated.
ALOHA Kaua, e Scott, Read every book on the Crown Lands. Always looking at the Kaona and you'll find your answers... Ke Ola Mau Ke Aupuni Moi O Hawaii, o Pomai
