Pono Kealoha and I spent time on Kauai with Aunty Nani Rogers and Noelani and her family. We also stayed at brother Grace's place in Anahola. Please continue the support for this is important. Naue was just unbelievable and this lele that Pono and I visited with Aunty Nane was extremely devastating.
Pono Kealoha filmed Kupuna and he wept! the heart break of knowing that in his time that he removed 'iwi' for tourisism hurt his heart. A burden he carried and continue to carry for the rest of his life seems trivial for some, as a Pacific Islander I assure that is not the case.
Kupuna Val Ahko who spoke out against this desecration is being railroaded by the state archeologists who is acting on behalf of the State and Federal government. His words are being used against him by Hal Hammett and his team of Archaeologists who have proceeded to dig Mahuna u'uone WITH OUT consulting with Native Hawaiians, Lineal descendants,a memorandum of agreement or burial plan.
Hal Hammett, State of Hawaii Lead Archeologist have been campaigning the massive destruction of our Traditional Cultural Properties of Wailuanuiahoano as well as the destruction of our Ancient History that lies protected in the sands of Wailuanuiahoano.
Evolutionary prejudices held by these powerful groups of scientists who act as a "knowledge filter" has eliminated evidence challenging accepted views and leave us with a radically altered understanding of our origins and antiquity.
We do not want or need scientist like him, telling us, what our history was. We are connected to OUR Kupuna who’s IWI and DNA is OCCUPYING our AINA . We know in our NA'AU who we are. This HAOLE' Scientist intentions is to remove our KUPUNA IWI for the State and Federal Government so that there is no history or OCCUPATION of the Lands and then they can Proceed with THEIR western Schemes and Ideas, changing the historical usage of OUR lands.
