THE THEFT OF THE CENTURY ON VOICES OF TRUTH - ONE-ON-ONE WITH HAWAI`I'S FUTURE
Imagine someone stealing your car then negotiating with others about selling it to them.
That’s what occurred this last week as the Office of Hawaiian Affairs announced a ceded lands settlement with the so-called “state of Hawai`i.”
Stolen land remains stolen no matter how long the thief retains it or how many times they claim to own it.
Their attempts to “sell” land to the state that was stolen from Hawai`i Nationals during the illegal overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom is a slap in the face to all who support a Free Hawai`i.
Here’s what one activist reported when Hawai`i patriots attempted to attend those negotiations –
“OHA changed rooms a couple of times to evade us that wanted to sit in.…they refused to let anyone in and locked the door. While we waited to try to get in, someone came out and stated that they concluded their meeting and everyone exited out of a back door as to not confront us.”
So much for OHA fulfilling their mission of working for the betterment of native Hawaiians.
Can anything be done to stop this?
Watch our Free Hawai`i video commentary this coming Wednesday on Free Hawai`i TV for instructions on how you can help prevent the finalization of this deal.
There are actions you can take to stop this sell-out dead in its tracks. We’ll tell you what they are and how you can do it.

“Every Feather A Prayer – A Visit With Uncle Helemano”
One day at the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center where he worked, Uncle Helemano noticed an old kahili, the feathered standards of old Hawai`i, in need of repair.
He decided he would take it upon himself to learn the skills in order to repair it.
And that’s how Uncle became one of Hawai`i’s best-known contemporary kahili makers.
Naturally when we sat down with him to talk story, he told us some amazing things including who the very first kahili really were.
He also told us kahili marked parameters in the old days when ali`i were present, since ancient Hawai`i had no flags.
We saw right away there’s a lot more to it, since for Uncle creating kahili is not just about passing the culture down through the generations, “it’s also about a positive message to our people.”
Don’t miss our fascinating visit with Uncle Helemano as he actually shares with us his process of making kahili and also shows us some of his astonishing and unique one-of-a-kind pieces. You’ll see for yourself he puts positive thoughts and prayer into each and every feather.
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.
