The Hawaiian Kingdom never ended...
One hundred twenty years ago, armed US Marines commit an act of war against the peaceful Hawaiian Kingdom, surround Iolani Palace, and arrest Queen Liliuokalani at gunpoint. This enables treasonous private businessmen to unlawfully start their own "government" called the Republic of Hawaii. A fraudulent "annexation" then becomes the illegal foundation of the so-called "State of Hawaii", which is where we find ourselves today.
On January 17th 2013, we invite everyone to put aside their differences and come celebrate our Queen, who protested U.S. occupation till the day she died. Six generations have passed since our Queen envisioned the full restoration of the Hawaiian Kingdom. It is no accident that she used the words "Oh honest Americans." She knew that one day honest American people would stand up with their Hawaiian brothers and sisters to restore our Peaceful Hawaiian Nation. It was an act of war then, and still is an illegal occupation today.
We invite everyone to come out on the ala nui kahiko and get to know your neighbors as we celebrate our beloved Queen; for all that she did for us then, which also guides and inspires us today. Let's work collaboratively as one People, to ho'o ponopono and make right this injustice!
Here is the rap up from the last event we did:
