THREE POWERFUL & EXCITING ROLE MODELS ON VOICES OF TRUTH - ONE-ON-ONE WITH HAWAI`I'S FUTURE

We are proud to present three very different yet powerful role models this week, all seeking in what they do to create a brighter future for Hawai`i. They inspire us all to do our part too because their message is - "if we can do it, so can you!"

So here we go with this weeks schedule of Voices Of Truth - One-On-One With Hawai`i's Future -

MONDAY, July 11th - On Na Leo Television, channel 54, on both sides of Hawai'i island at 7:00 PM.

"Coming Out And Overcoming - A Visit With Hinaleimoana Wong." Another of our brand new second season segments for our Hawai`i island viewers.

Hina Wong is not only a charter schoolteacher, powerful cultural practitioner of hula and oli, but also a role model whose path, as transgender, has been uniquely different.

Hina shares with us the obstacles she overcame in order to find not only herself, but her place of active involvement and contribution in creating a better Hawai`i.


Hina reveals how courage and commitment are key to overcoming most anything. A truly inspirational segment to watch!

WEDNESDAY, July 13th - On Akaku, Channel 53 at 6:30 PM.
One of our most popular segments, because you keep requesting it - "Standing Up For Independence - A Visit With Dr. Hanalei Vierra, PhD."


For all of you who have asked us to show it once again so you could share it with `ohana and friends, here it is.

Hanalei shares with us his experience of being the voice for Hawaiian Independence at OHA's Kau Inoa meeting in San Diego, California.


Standing up over and over in the audience to counter OHA's falsehoods and propaganda, Hanalei shares with us how one voice can make a huge difference.

Don't miss this one as Hanalei relates, blow by blow, how frustrated OHA representatives became as he stopped them cold!

SATURDAY, July 16th - On 'Olelo this Saturday at 8 PM.
"Online Activism - A Visit With Scott Crawford." Just how large a role do computers and the world wide web play today in educating others about our future ?
