the land) in "Hawaii A Voice For Sovereignty" was premiered with standing room only at the Pasadena Convention Center, Saturday April 3rd. Photojournalist and filmmaker, Catherine Bauknight became a messenger for the voice of the Native Hawaiian people as she documented them speaking out in the epic documentary, Hawaii A Voice For Sovereignty. The documentary was filmed over 4 years. Bauknight went from Island to Island asking the Native Hawaiians to discuss their culture and why they were not visible in their own land. They would tell her that they could not talk about their culture or issues without speaking of their spirituality and their need to reconnect to the land and their sovereign rights.
The screening was opened with a traditional ceremony by the Hula Halau Na 'O Maile and musician Auntie Geri Kuhia. Kiowa Gordon, actor from the Twilight Saga New Moon and Native American from the Hualapai Tribe announced he will serve as a spokesperson for the documentary "Hawaii A Voice For Sovereignty", and the upcoming documentary series that Bauknight is creating to raise awareness of vanishing cultures. After the screening of the 84 minute documentary, a panel discussion engaged the audience monitored by Addie Rolnick - Critical Race Studies Law Fellow, UCLA School of Law, with panelists including Arnie Saiki- Project Director, 'Imi Pono Projects, 'Ehu Kekahu Cardwell -The Koani Foundation, Leon Siu - Astute analyst and strategist in the Hawaiian political arena, and Christen Marquez - Filmmaker
Hawaiians are seeking sovereignty to save their culture, their spirituality, and their connection to the lands of Hawaii; land which they believe belongs to them. The land was owned by their ancestors and the RoyalKingdom, before it was claimed by the U.S. in 1893. They seek to have their natural sovereign rights returned, as people who respectfully care for each other and care for the land. The issue of Hawaiian ceded lands went before the US Supreme Court in 2009, but was remanded back to the Hawaii Supreme Court.
The film was screened to a standing room only crowd of about 400 people in the filmmakers home town of Pasadena, California at the Pasadena Convention Center on April 3rd, with an introduction by vice-mayor, Victor Gordo.Support for the film in her hometown on Easter weekend is an expression of how eager the public is to help make changes
in social awareness of indigenous people, Bauknight believes. Most of the
people came out to learn more about the film that they had heard much about through traditional media coverage such as USA Today, Newsweek.com, The Honolulu
Examiner,Hawaiian Public Radio, and the Pasadena Weekly over the years. "An
extraordinary thing happened when people began to participate in the Hawaiian sovereignty movement. A social movement has been created following the film and the journey of the Hawaiians on their quest. This was done through google, youtube, facebook, Maoli World, the film website, and word of mouth known to Hawaiians as the Coconut Wireless.
Supporters of the Sovereignty movement and of environmental sustainability on the lslands began a unique way of communicating with each other through the film in 2005. They have followed their movement and supported the film at its first private premiere at the US Capitol Building in June 2009, and watched the continued success at film festivals where it won awards including "Best Hawai'i Film" at the Maui Film Festival", "Best Environmental Film" and "Best Documentary Feature" at the New York International Independent Film and Video Festival Film Festival in New York
City. It is the Hawaiian People's film. They share their aloha and touch the hearts and minds of the viewers.
"People kept calling me the day that Avatar came out saying I had to go see
the film. I realized immediately that the theme of Avatar is the real-life story of the struggles that the Native Hawaiian People face, due to overdevelopment, environmental abuse, and lack of respect for their culture", says Bauknight.
"Hawaii A Voice For Sovereignty" is and educational film about the cultural
awareness of the people and the environment of Hawaii. It is a universal message. For more information about the series and submissions on subject matter of indigenous cultures please email Catherine Bauknight @www.catherinebauknight.com <http://www.catherinebauknight.com/>.

Something so small, yet having so large an impact it would disqualify the vast majority who enter to compete.
What is it? Who’s behind it? And what were they thinking?
Find out about the new stance that decides who can dance this coming Wednesday on Free Hawai`i TV.
Mahalo to everyone who let us know how both moved and upset you were watching “Struggle For Our Nation,” our interview with Andre Perez at `Iolani Palace this last January 17th that features footage of state police attempting to interrupt and disrupt Hawaiian cultural practices.
It’s a perfect microcosm of what the illegal US takeover of Hawai`i is really all about.
Haven’t seen it yet? Want to show it to `ohana and friends? You can see it all this week on Hawai`i’s award winning Voices Of Truth – One-On-One With Hawai`i’s Future.
MONDAY, April 19th At 6:30 PM – Maui – Akaku, Channel 53
MONDAY, April 19th At 7:00 PM & FRIDAY, April 23rd At 5:30 PM – Hawai`i Island – Na Leo, Channel 53

SATURDAY, April 24th At 8:00 PM – O`ahu, `Olelo, Channel 53
“Struggle For Our Nation – A Visit With Andre Perez”
It happened at `Iolani Palace on the day Hawai`i Nationals annually observe the illegal overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom and honor their Queen. During cultural and religious observances, law enforcement officers arrived, attempting to disrupt things. As Andre Perez explains the ceremonial significance, tensions escalate by the minute and emotions run high. Were there arrests? Did patriots stand their ground? See for yourself in this amazing story of people who love their country and Queen - Watch It Here
Voices Of Truth interviews those creating a better future for Hawai`i to discover what made them go from armchair observers to active participants. We hope you'll be inspired to do the same.
In addition to the markets outside of Hawai`i we’ve announced over the last few weeks, Voices Of Truth will also soon be airing in Kansas as well as Altoona and Johnson, Pennsylvania. Check your local listings.

I passed the first portion of the brokers exam. When they told me I passed I was so overwhelmed because it was THAT tough. I thought to myself, "Wow... I am Hawaiian and I PASSED!" LOL It was soooo tough. Tougher than I can describe.
My niece Mahina.
She is the highest scoring kindergardener on a standardized test for all kindergardeners throughout the history of Virginia.
She currently has a 4.2 GPA.
I highly doubt that she would be able to achieve this in Hawai'i only because some people in the public schools in Hawai'i crap on Hawaiian kids. Perhaps in charter schools she and other local kids would be able to be nurtured AND inspired like the flowers that they are. Keiki o ka aina.
In Hawai'i some people tell a child what they CAN'T do. Few tell a child what they CAN DO.
JUST DO IT. I posted a pic of me wearing a shirt that says that at my Facebook.
Her abstract self-portrait is on the top left:
Keep in mind that she is ONLY 15 LMAO
She and I get along very well. In fact she LOVES to talk to me because I understand her. She is not a typical child either. Never was. I would discuss very complex topics and she would understand me LOL
Her abstract self-portrait epitomizes this because she has many layers... and is diverse like a rainbow. You can also see the duality like of the Hawaiian World and the Haole World.
Oh and my nephew Kekaimalu got a perfect score on the Talented and Gifted Test that they give to kids LOL I doubt that this would be possible in Hawai'i because got some pilau people in Hawai'i who like TRY keep da Hawaiian down das why! But no work LOL....
Laaaaaatahhhs!

USA covert and overt activities led to the invasion of the Hawaiian Kingdom and immediately recognized its complicitor's proclamation without the people's knowledge.
Without US military intervention and USA complicity, the USA puppet Provisional Government would not have lasted for more than an hour.
Using that backing, they created the Republic of Hawai`i against the people's wishes.
All legal attempts to annex Hawai`i to the USA failed because the people overwhelmly protested and sent their Ku'e Petitions to Washington D.C.
It was ignored by the pro-annexationists and complicitors.
In covering up the hoax, Congress passed the Newlands Resolution falsly declaring the majority wished for the annexation of Hawai`i without a lawful treaty.
That's how Hawai`i became unlawfully annexed even according to US laws.
