Hawai`i - A Voice For Sovereignty had its film debut in Washington DC’s brand new Capitol Visitor’s Center Thursday night.Despite a heavy last minute boycott spearheaded by Hawai`i’s US congressional delegation and the cancellation of funding by the Office of Hawaiian Affairs, the premier was well attended.The film’s message drove home a powerful message – the people of Hawai`i are inextricably tied to the land and their love for it.With the reintroduction of the Akaka bill in the US congress this last week, it’s no wonder the Inouye, Akaka and OHA crowd tried to get the film stopped.The Akaka bill would not only extinguish the Hawaiian Nation, it would also steal that very land the people of Hawai`i feel so connected to.Examples abound of people who love their land in action to protect it, and our new Voices Of Truth show, filmed on Maui, features U`ilani Kapu.It’s no exaggeration at all to call her Maui’s 24-hour volunteer. See for yourself why this week on Voices Of Truth – One-On-One With Hawai`i's Future.MONDAY, June 8th At 6:30 PM –Maui – Akaku, Channel 53“24-Hour Volunteer – A Visit With U`ilani Kapu”It's one thing to see a need and fill it.
