EMBRACING THE PAST & HAVING A BLAST ON “VOICES OF TRUTH - ONE-ON-ONE WITH HAWAI`IʻS FUTURE”


Traditional Hawaiian - A Visit With Keao NeSmith
"

What happens when a language dies? Is the Hawaiian taught in schools really that different from Hawaiian spoken by native speakers? It took Keao writing a breakthrough Masters thesis to find out. In our visit, Keao separates fact from fiction, and explains why the history of our islands comes alive every time Hawaiian is spoken - Watch It Here

"My Hawaiian Genealogy - A Visit With Roebrt Ebanez"

Being Hawaiian in most of the 20th century meant assimilation. Speaking Hawaiian, studying the culture and learning your genealogy were all discouraged. Such was the world Robert Ebanez grew up in, yet as a teenager he found himself yearning to learn those very things. Donʻt miss our visit with Robert as he recalls an encounter with his auntie who much to his surprise turned out to be not only one of Hawai`iʻs greatest scholars, but the one largely responsible for the Hawaiian Cultural Renaissance today - Watch It Here
