HAWAI`I NATIONALS AT THE UN ON VOICES OF TRUTH - ONE-ON-ONE WITH HAWAI`I'S FUTURE

All last week and this, the eighth annual Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues is being held at the United Nations in New York City, where the world’s indigenous peoples meet to share their challenges and discuss their future.

A broad coalition of Hawaiian patriots are there, including Hawai`i National Leon Siu, who gives us a full report on the accomplishments as well as a special look at the forum in session. Be sure and catch it this coming Wednesday on Free Hawai`i TV.

Speaking of patriots, we have a brand new Voices Of Truth show this week with Pomai Kinney, who lives as a Hawai`i National with every breath he takes.

Few embody the Kingdom or live it as he does, so if you’re seeking a mega-dose of inspiration, don’t miss Pomai this week on Voices Of Truth – One-On-One With Hawai`i's Future.

MONDAY, May 25th At 6:30 PM Maui – Akaku, Channel 53
“To Restore Our Kingdom – A Visit With Pomaikaiokalani Kinney”

His country never went away no matter what the history books say. You’d be hard pressed to find anyone more loyal to Hawai`i and its people than Pomai Kinney. A long-time activist Pomai movingly speaks of what his grandmother taught him about the coming changes, his own awakening, and years of resistance against the illegal US occupation. He reminds us all the Hawaiian Kingdom is very much alive right now. Watch It Here.

“Ensuring Our Future – A Visit With Malia `Alohilani Rogers”

Hawai`i’s values, language and future. Three important things to Malia, who helped bring the Kawaikini public charter school on Kaua`i into reality. A Hawaiian language educator for over 14 years, you’ll see why both Malia and her school are so amazing. As she says, she wants to create a place where “language, beliefs and practices of the indigenous people of Hawai'i have become instinctive.” Watch It Here.

Voices Of Truth interviews those creating a better future for Hawai`i to discover what made them go from armchair observers to active participants. We hope you'll be inspired to do the same.
