TIME FOR CHANGE AT THE OFFICE OF HAWAIIAN AFFAIRS ON VOICES OF TRUTH - ONE-ON-ONE WITH HAWAI`I'S FUTURE
Wow. We’re both humbled and gratified at the continuous and very positive mana`o (feedback) that we’ve received for yet another week on our Akaka bill defeat series.
It seems like this issue has raised your concerns and interests like few others.
Likewise it’s been gratifying to hear from so many of you your views that it’s time for change at the Office of Hawaiian Affairs.
The window of opportunity is wide open to replace those trustees running for re-election who have done nothing but use beneficiary monies to prolong the illegal US occupation.
Bumpy Kanahele, among others, would bring a sea of change to OHA.
Apparently many of you agree as we fulfill your numerous requests by airing our interview with Bumpy again this week as he explains why it’ so important to elect those who will truly serve the people.
It’s a break with the past and an opportunity for change this week on Voices Of Truth – One-On-One With Hawai`i’s Future.

“Hawaiian Patriots In Action – A Visit With Leon Siu”
How was the message from Hawai`i’s people regarding the Akaka bill received on Capitol Hill?
Leon Siu, one of a team that went, delivers an answer that may surprise you.
Pointing out the ridiculousness of OHA’s divisive racial arguments in trying to get the bill passed, Leon reveals his team’s message to the Hill was far different - one of Kingdom Nationals being disenfranchised.
Leon also reports that senators were very receptive when reminded that Hawaiians have always been inclusive, not exclusive.
Countering criticism they cooperated with conservatives, Leon explains why those may be the very ones who will be the first to recognize a Free Hawai`i.
Find out what Leon sees as the answer to what life looks like after the Akaka bill and why he believes “aloha” is one of the most powerful words in any language in all the world.

“Serving The People – A Visit With Bumpy Kanahele"
Even though we’ve known Bumpy for years, every time we visit we always come away impressed.
With his announced OHA trustee candidacy bid, we finally have someone who’s honest, forthright, will work for the people if elected and not another tool of the corrupt state apparatus.
And it’s no secret that Bumpy’s a “black and white” kind of guy – you always know where he stands on issues.
Naturally we asked him why he’s running as well as how he’s different from the rest.
Well, the more we heard, the more excited we got – from his native bank proposal to how he would involve our younger generation, and most importantly his vision and strong commitment that everyone has a share.
Join us as we sit down with one of Hawai`i’s long-time servants of the people and find out why he deserves everyone’s support in his run for OHA as he shares his vision for Hawai`i and tells us why the people’s time is now.
SATURDAY, September 23rd At 8:00 PM – O`ahu - `Olelo, Channel 53
"Hawaiian Patriots In Action – A Visit With Clarence Ku Ching”
As one of the people who went to Capitol Hill to help defeat the Akaka bill, Ku Ching gives us his first hand experience of what it’s like to be in the power center of the US.
As a former OHA trustee himself, Ku had plenty of credibility when meeting with senate power brokers to share his views on why the Akaka bill should be defeated – and they listened.
Ku also gives us his in depth analysis of OHA’s “Plan B” and we’ll tell you right now it isn’t pretty.
Don’t miss this one as Ku tells us what the future holds for Hawai`i after the Akaka bill as well as why OHA is so busy publicly attempting to smear his name.
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.
