There have been many organizations created with the intention of reclaiming sovereignty for the Hawaiian people. Allowing the Hawaiians to decide how to make use of our land. Allowing the Hawaiians to decide on the education of our keiki. Allowing the Hawaiians to pave the future for the people. There has been so much hurt and wrong-doings towards our people. Kana'iolowalu is yet another attempt at recognizing the Hawaiians as an independent nation. I didn't realize that by signing under Kana'iolowalu would be surrendering to the thoughts of the oppressor. We would be admitting to have once been a part of the United States of America, by making the statement of breaking free from their ruling. When in fact, we are already, and have always been part of the independent Kingdom of Hawai'i. This we know in our hearts, and do no have to prove to anyone. The fight we have is to re-claim our land and resources for the benefit of our people.
