I love Hawaii so much, I can't put it into words.
Are the Kanaka Maoli being "railroaded" into
the Department of the Interior ?
Aloha brada and thank you. I understand truely what your explaining and I can never stop learning about who I am as being one person. You are right the way one must be excepted hawaiian and how one is a good hawaiian,again you are right. I may be ignorant on who I am but,I'm still learning.
On the issue of KAUINOA and OHA my sister in Pahoa at the time signed her name and my husband tried explaining to her what this will bring.She went to check on it and found out her name along with her kids name was on a list of names that OHA used to help push the AKAKA BILL!Now she belives what the AKAKA BILL will become.She contected them and sent a letter demanding her name be removed.It was done!I'm really glad that the BILL is at a HOLT!
I am 50% on my moms side and hubby is 15% on his moms side. Being just my mana'o yeah to me it doesn't mean kaka how much one carries but,it's how one carries ones self as you have explaned.
Both my husband and I have been members of the Kanaka Maoli since 1998 on Kauai.Now on the big island since 2007 .
Thank you again,your comments/any comments are always welcome because it helps me to understand and LEARN more.
Aloha kāua e Barbi!
Protecting the land and its surviving descendents is not one of the U.S. Government's priorities. The blood quantum was established by the white men at the Bureau of Indian Affairs to accelerate the genocide of Indians, Native Hawaiians and Native Alaskans. It works in a very simple way. If you have 50% Hawaiian blood and you are married to another Hawaiian who is also in the 50% category your children will still satisfy the white-men-made blood quantum, but if they marry anyone with less than 50% their offsprings are out of the game, so that they cannot claim anything as native Hawaiians. Even in the Kingdom of Hawai‘i marriages outside of your race were not frowned upon and they were accepted, because it is not your koko that makes you a good Hawaiian, but the way you act and let it be up to the Hawaiian whom they accept and whome they consider good Hawaiian. Kau Inoa is just another way for the OHA to collect the records of kanaka maoli for the U, maybe for rounding them up one day. Remember that OHA is an agency of the de facto Hawaiian government that swore obedience to the occupiers of this ‘āina. Your mana‘o is right. When I visited China and to answer the question re citizenship on the visa application paper I wrote Hawaiian and they accepted it without any question.
Na nā akua e ho‘ola‘a i keia pae ‘āina nei!

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is busy testing the LHG on Kaua'i and Molokai with traffic tickets marking the "incidents". We all recall that Lance Larsen drove his car right up to the doors of The Hague !! Hillary is very busy with the LHG.
Looking for "rights" ?? ....well, that's okay.
Looking for "powers" for the LHG ?? Big Trouble.
What will be Hillary's next move ??
