A PARKING LOT IS WHERE IT WAS SHOT ON VOICES OF TRUTH – ONE-ON-ONE WITH HAWAI`I’S FUTURE
That’s right, we took our cameras to a parking lot in Kaka`ako, an area near downtown Honolulu, to meet Hawaiian entertainer and historian Palani Vaughan.
We were intrigued when Palani told us significant things had happened there.
Of course our first thought was “in a parking lot?” until Palani explained what had occurred there happened during the reign of Kamehameha III well over a century ago.
Well, that got our attention and fast. So off we went, and when we heard the story that Palani told we weren’t disappointed, and that’s putting it mildly.

HAWAIIAN PATRIOT JON OSORIO WINS 2010 CLOPTON AWARD
Hawaiian patriot Jonathan Kamakawiwo`ole Osorio is the winner of the 2010 Clopton award.
A professor in Manoa’s Hawai`inuiakea School of Hawaiian Knowledge, Jon has devoted his life to becoming an expert on Hawai`i politics and history, music and identity, and indigenous civil rights and social justice.
His community service is imbued with the gracious spirit of `ohana that values children, elders and kupuna and allies and friends.
“Jon is one of very few professors I know who regards community service with the same passion and commitment that he gives to academic teaching and research,” says a colleague.
“His writing, teaching, speeches, advocacies on behalf of his own people and church, as well as his music of loss, love and hope have touched the minds and hearts of thousands of people across the region we call Oceania.”
“Professor Osorio is praised for his inspirational work and contributions as an insightful, caring and intellectual leader,” says Manoa Chancellor Virginia S. Hinshaw.
“In every indigenous community, there are those who are called to the role of moving their communities through hardship to transformation, and he has responded to the call in such a gracious manner.
He has truly made a deep impact in the lives of so many people, as well as on numerous communities across the region.”
For the third time in the past decade, a Brandeis doctoral dissertation has been judged the best in the nation by The Society of American Historians.
Noelani Arista, an Irving and Rose Crown Fellow who will be awarded her PhD at the university’s commencement in May, has won the 50th annual Allan Nevins Prize for her interdisciplinary thesis, "Histories of Unequal Measure: Euro-American Encounters with Hawaiian Governance and Law, 1793-1827," which she defended in December.
Arista joins an illustrious cast of past winners, including such luminaries as William Freehling and Mary Beth Norton. She also joins two other Brandeis Crown Fellow winners: Jeff Wiltse, PhD'02, won in 2003, and Jessica Lepler, PhD'07, in 2008.
“I feel very honored to win this distinguished prize, especially because my goal was to be able to write a dissertation about Hawai`i and early encounters between Hawai`i and the US in a way that brought Hawaiian history to the attention of the main stream of American history,” Arista said. “That a dissertation that emphasizes Native (Hawaiian) history was awarded this prize I believe is significant.”
Arista, who currently teaches in the History Department at the University of Hawai`i at Manoa, says it was her academic background in Hawaiian culture and language that made her feel at home at Brandeis. “I felt that Brandeis with its own cultural and historical traditions would be a good fit for me in this stage of my development, and I have found it to be a culturally diverse and rich place of seeking after knowledge, a Hawaiian cultural value known as `Imi Loa," Arista said.
Arista was interested in illuminating this unequal history because she felt that American approaches to the study of Hawaiian history have always been written in English language sources and methodological assumptions. It was her goal to draw upon both English and Hawaiian sources to tell a different story about the transformation of Hawaiian government during this period.
“I argue that Hawaiians have their own conceptualization and reality when it comes to history and the interpretation of events, and also make the point that not only linguistic, but cultural literacy is central to telling this history well,” Arista said.

HAWAI`I - A CALL FOR SOVEREIGNTY SCREENED IN PASADENA, CA
Los Angeles Examiner - April 6, 2010
No matter how you look at it, the United States took control of a foreign country's government by force.
A group of American businessmen who had established operations there were instrumental in seeking the overthrow of Queen Liliu`okalani and her monarchy.
The Queen appealed to President Cleveland in a letter of protest at the time, and did not resist her house arrest for fear that violence would ensue and her people would pay the ultimate price.
A troop of armed US Marines put ashore and effected the transition of power.
President Cleveland after investigating the situation agreed that the US created an act of war against a peaceful country that had been allied with the US up to that point. He agreed to help restore the Kingdom of Hawai`i.
It has been nearly 120 years since the Queen was removed. What has happened since then is history: Hawai`i was declared a territory of the United States, and then annexed as the 50th State in the Union in 1959.
