ANSWER THIS QUESTION. WHY ARE THEY PUSHING THE AKAKA BILL?

The Answer?



Because written sneakily INTO the Akaka Bill is a final attempt to OVERTHROW the Kingdom of Hawaii. Haven't you wondered WHY they are pushing so hard? If you think that OHA is a Hawaiian organization...think again. It is made to LOOK LIKE it is, but ever since the Rice vs. Cayetano case, OHA has represented ALL hawaii's residents...not just hawaiians. OHA is a State Agency, so why wouldn't they push the State's agenda? Which is really the Federal agenda of the… Continue

VIDEOS OF THE ONLY AKAKA BILL HEARINGS...

A guy named Ken O'Keefe did 15 videos on Hawaiian Issues. Ten are posted here. Go to You Tube and type in: The United States of Hypocrisy" to view the last 5 (I got lazy).

He goes by 1worldcitizen. A MUST SEE: Please share EVERYWHERE.

PALIN NOT COMFORTABLE AS A MINORITY...auwe!

What Palin so conveniently forgets...the so-called American continent was infiltrated by outsiders (in the minority), yet dominated physically, politically, and economically the "majority" of indigenous people (inpendent indian nations)...making them eventually...the minority through genocide. So soon she forgets.

SHAME ON THANKSGIVING...and what it meant to the First People.

I am re-printing Ululani's blog post...on Thanksgiving Eve. Just like Kanaka Maoli...the original people of the North American continent....have endured too much pain for too long. We should be thankful they haven't gotten rid of all of us...and that we STILL STAND PROUD.

OCCUPATION vs COLONIZATION....a discussion

Today, Kehaulani Kauanui will be broadcasting a discussion similar to the one recently presented at Kamakakuokalani at UH. There is much debate about whether we are "Occupied" or "Colonized", and many suggest that it is an "either-or" situation. I believe we are BOTH. We are occupied AND suffer under the negative effects of Colonization. Many look at International Law (UN etc.) for remedy...and the discussion is which "International Court" to enter...the International Court of Justice (Keanu)… Continue

SWEDEN RETURNS OUR 'IWI...BUT STATE OF HAWAII KEEPS DIGGING THEM UP!

STOCKHOLM – With a solemn ceremony in Stockholm's antiquities museum, Sweden marked the return of 22 skulls looted from a native Hawaiian community more than a century ago.



The symbolic ceremony on Saturday — attended by guests from Hawaii and the Nordic countries' own indigenous Sami population — was part of Sweden's increased efforts to return indigenous remains collected by scientists across the world.

November 16, 2009 "Information Clearing House" -- When General Suharto, the west’s man, seized power in Indonesia in the mid-1960s, he offered “a gleam of light in Asia”, rejoiced Time magazine. That he had killed up to a million “communists” was of no account in the acquisition of what Richard Nixon called “the richest hoard of natural resources,… Continue

READ BEFORE GETTING YOUR FLU SHOT...be informed.

This is but a "clip" from a long article that is tedious to read. But...if you or your ohana's lives might be on the line...it makes a lot of sense to read it or at least scan it. The FLU shot is being pushed so hard, it really needs to be given a second...and third look.

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO MUFI

say AMEN...you are about to be railroaded. Ok, ok...so thousands of iwi will be dug up to make way for the rail.

Big deal. Thousands were dug up at Mokapu (Mo'okapu to some). What's the beef? Don't we NEED RAIL? The city went and build a WHOLE other city...in Kapolei...and NOW they gotta figure out how to fix that quagmire with another bandaid. Trouble is...this bandaid will hurt a lot more than you think.



Nobody is taking the time to think. Why the heck build a second city...if… Continue

THE US DEFERS TO NOBODY....

This is a video by Noam Chomsky, who teaches at MIT in Linguistics. Why is he speaking out saying things like...

"The US defers to NOBODY?" What does that have to do with linguistics? Think about it. HOW someone SAYS something is as important as WHAT being said. Truth be told....the United States defers to nobody...he's right!

PROTEST FISH FARMS! tomorrow (fri. 10/23), 9am, 1151 Punchbowl (DLNR) rm. 132

The best way of farming fish in these islands is what has worked for thousands (NOT hundreds) of years. FISHPONDS. Yes, they require more patience...as we'd have to rebuild many of them due to neglect by a state who is potentially ALLOWING an OUTSIDE business to go in for the "kill". If it worked for kanaka maoli...it will work to this day.

Of course, we must acknowlege that the occupiers think they ALWAYS know better than us people of the land.

They have their eye ALWAYS on the prize… Continue

HUMILITY, COMPASSION, AND OVERSIGHT....Qualities of a King

Found this article on Yahoo news. The sentence below which is the last sentence in the article essentially says..."He May be KING, but has no power." Or so they think. What IS a government if not the management of cultural and social issues? We had a Queen, and along with the Constitution

initially drafted by Kauikeaouli, who ran the government quite successfully. As we do things to honor our Queen, the last reigning monarch, the sister of the first "elected" Monarch...let's remember than… Continue
