WHAT WILL A FREE HAWAI`I LOOK LIKE? ON VOICES OF TRUTH - ONE-ON-ONE WITH HAWAI`I'S FUTURE
This last January, Voices Of Truth went to `Iolani Palace for Hawai`i Loa Kulike Kakou, All Hawai`i Come Together, the annual observance of the illegal overthrow of the Hawaiian Nation.
Hawaiians and their supporters spent the weekend in activities, gathered in support of Queen Lili`uokalani and a Free Hawai`i.
Well, naturally we had to visit with some of them and what we discovered was truly amazing.
People of all ages and backgrounds told us they were there to maintain the legacy, dignity and righteousness of the Hawaiian Nation, the `aina (land) and the people.
Most all of them are in volved in accomplishing some pretty astounding things.
So this week we debut part one of a collection of those interviews so you too can meet them.
We're sure you'll be just as inspired as we were when you see and hear the faces of the Nation on Voices Of Truth - One-On-One With Hawai`i's Future.

One of our most popular shows ever, "Ancient Mana`o For A Pono Future - A Visit With Alex Pua`a," has received more feedback from our viewers than practically any other segment.
When we taped Alex, we ended up with far more footage than we could use.
So we have re-edited a new version to include never before seen footage.
Both a spiritual and cultural practitioner, Alex shares unique and moving spiritual and cultural values that underpin the Hawaiian culture.

"Faces Of The Nation - Voices Of Truth Live At `Iolani Palace - Part One."
"What will a Free Hawai`i look like?" is a question we hear a lot.
We found the answer at `Iolani Palace grounds in January when Native Hawaiians and their supporters gathered to spend the weekend showing everyone the Hawaiian Nation is still alive.
Voicing outrage at the continuing illegal occupation of Hawai`i by the U.S., the people there were nevertheless upbeat and optimistic.
We discovered specialists in every field of endeavor - people who will ably fill the needs of the Nation, who know our history and understand a Free Hawai`i benefits everyone.
And every single one of them we interviewed is actively engaged in creating a better future for Hawai`i and its people.
So be sure and gather your entire `ohana (family) and see for yourself the Hawai`i they describe - it's both amazing and exciting. Their message of hope and vision for the future is one you won't soon forget.
Voices of Truth interviews those creating a better future for Hawai`i to discover what made them go from armchair observers to active participants in the hopes of inspiring viewers to do the same.
