WHERE THEY YEARN TO LEARN ON “VOICES OF TRUTH - ONE-ON-ONE WITH HAWAI`IʻS FUTURE”


"A Place Called Anahola - A Visit With Kamealoha Hanohano-Smith"
 

Anahola, Kaua`i has been called special for many reasons, but when we spent the day recently with Hawaiian Immersion educator Kamealoha Smith, we quickly saw how unique it really is. Filmed at Anahola Beach Park, which in years past had been the scene of dramatic and historic fights for Native rights, Kamealoha explained how today itʻs used as an outdoor classroom. One spectacular outcome is a moon calendar designed by his students. Join us in our fascinating visit with Kamealoha and youʻll soon see why Anahola and itʻs people are so extraordinary - Watch It Here

WHY ITʻS TIME TO END THE ILLEGAL US OCCUPATION OF HAWAI`I















Native Hawaiians constitute roughly 22 per cent of the state population, but they represent 54 per cent of the prison population.


They also have the lowest per capita income, the highest poverty rate and the shortest lifespan of any ethn...ic group in Hawai`i.

Hawai`i public school students receive very poor education by any standard of measurement. They consistently rank among the lowest of any state in test scores.

Most of the bright students who manage to learn something in spite of the handicapped school system leave Hawai`i for foreign colleges and careers.

Tens of thousands of residents have no medical insurance at all.

In some cases, the lives of the working poor are worse than the unemployed.

SCHOLARLY LAW JOURNAL PANS AKAKA BILL














The Asian-Pacific Law & Policy Journal, published by the William S. Richardson School of Law at the University of Hawai`i has just published a new analysis of the Akaka Bill.


Here's an excerpt from their conclusion -


"The Akaka bill is novel in that it is the first Congressional attempt to federally recognize a non-Indian entity, and to do so in a fashion inconsistent with the political history of the former governing entity it is ostensibly recognizing.

Under a different view, the Akaka bill is novel in that it endeavors to federally recognize a government to collectively represent an entire ethnic group based upon shared indigeneity, rather than political history. But political history, not indegeneity, begets federal recognition.

As a result the Akaka bill faces invalidation because its political-historical inconsistencies – most of all with regard to who is Hawaiian – raise a number of cognizable legal issues potentially fatal to the bill...."

AKAKA BILL - IF IT'S SO GOOD, WHY ARE THEY AFRAID TO HAVE HEARINGS IN HAWAI`I?

I still don’t support the Akaka Bill because of the shadiness that is surrounding it.

Why aren’t there meetings and Q&A sessions hosted on every Island where the people can come to ask questions and get answers regarding this bill?

And if there were, why aren’t there any more?

It’s about education- it would be irresponsible of OHA to support this bill without educating the prime group that this bill would affect the most.

And if it happened already, it should be happening more....

AN ILLUMINATING JOURNEY - KA`APUNI E HO`A KUKUI NA MOKU `AINA

Maui Torch March Starts Tonight


Beginning tonight at 11 PM the people of Maui will gather at Moku`ula (Malu`uluolele Park), Lahaina to embark on a 200 mile journey circumnavigating the Island of Maui.

Marchers anticipate completing the journey on Friday, February 27, 2009 at Moku`ula with closing protocol and the handing-off of the torches for its finally journey.


A Copy of the Appeal (Hawai`i v. Office of Hawaiian Affairs, No. 07-1372, Oct. 1, 2008) to the US Supreme Court will be burned and used to ignite the Torches that will be carried across and through all the districts of Maui.


The Torches represent the awakening and enlightenment of knowledge to what is really and truly taking place for all Kanaka Maoli (native Hawaiians.)


· Lack of adequate Health Care for native Hawaiian Beneficiaries.


· Lack of Housing (homelessness) for native Hawaiian Beneficiaries.


· Lack of Funding for Education for native Hawaiian Beneficiaries


All people of Maui are welcome and encouraged to join the marchers as we journey through the many ahupua`a or districts of the island.

For more information contact - Ke`eaumoku Kapu (808) 250-1479
