Hawai`i Nationals will gather Monday at the statue of US President William McKinley in front of McKinley high school at 10 AM to observe the centennial of the dedication of the statue.
They will do so by marking the fact that this statue of President McKinley holds in its hand something that never existed – a treaty of annexation between the Hawaiian Kingdom and the United States.
While calling attention to that lie, participants will also underscore a truth – that 98% of all Hawaiian Kingdom Nationals alive at the time in 1898 opposed any attempt to cede Hawai`i to the US.
Moreover they made their protest public record in 1897 by signing the Kuʻe petitions, the monster document containing the signatures of nearly all Hawaiian Kingdom citizens alive at the time.
The event tomorrow is free and open to the public. Everyone is encouraged to attend and take part in this historic observation of one simple truth – Hawai`i never has been part of the United States.
And speaking of uncovering things, Lanakila Willard was called to uncover one of Mauiʻs largest, oldest and most significant heiaus and what saw in our visit with her is simply amazing.
Donʻt miss our tour of Honua`ula Heiau with Lanakila all this week on Hawai`i’s award winning Voices Of Truth – One-On-One With Hawai`i’s Future.

“Hawai`iʻs Hidden Past – A Visit with Lanakila Willard"
Lanakila Willard is one of those Hawaiians who got the call from her ancestors. She answered and before long found herself discovering something that had been covered up for centuries - a Heiau or ancient Hawaiian place of worship. Assuming it to be small, she was stunned to realize the size and scope of what she was uncovering. Join us in our visit with Lanakila on the island of Maui, as she gives us a tour of an amazing place never before seen in modern times – Watch It Here
