"LET'S FORGET ABOUT THE AKAKA BILL"

So Says Scholar, Journalist & Filmmaker Tom Coffman, Who Has Written Extensively About The Politics & History Of Hawai`i -

Honolulu Star-Bulletin - Sunday, September 25, 2005

"I empathize with Senators Inouye and Akaka in their well-meant efforts, but with respect I suggest they have become fixated on getting a bill out.

If giving up just claims is the price of the bill, let us forget the bill.

Let us preserve some measure of respect for one another and not become accomplices to another fraud.

Let us come home to Hawai`i and hunker down. Let us rally around the Hawaiians, and denounce their tormenters for what they are, and live to fight another day for some semblance of real justice."
