Kuku Kapa
Ka makani kāʻili kapa o Nuʻuanu.
The garment-snatching wind of Nuʻuanu.
The gale that blows at Nuʻuanu Pali, Oʻahu, could whisk away the kapa garment of a traveler there.

Where were the British in 1893 - 1898?

Great Britain and the Hawaiian Revolution and Republic, 1893-1898

CAPTAIN JAMES COOK'S contact with the Hawaiian Islands gave Great Britain a certain pre-eminence in Hawaiian history and attitudes which remained for some time, and was commemorated in the placing of the British Union Jack in Hawai'i's national flag, now the Hawai'i State flag. The British government's disavowal in 1843 of the takeover of Honolulu by a British naval officer and its formal restoration of Hawaiian independence ushered in a period of Hawaiian attachment to Great Britain which made it appear as if Hawai'i would eventually gravitate into Britain's orbit. Actually, however, Hawai'i's ultimate place in the scheme of things was already decided in favor of the United States. American economic and missionary activity in the Islands during the first half of the 19th century had already made Hawai'i's absorption by the United States a matter of time. That the Islands were not absorbed earlier was more the result of a disinclination of the United States to do so than anything else. The American declaration of 1854 guaranteeing Hawaiian independence made the Islands in effect an American protectorate and the United States henceforth the determiner of Hawai'i's destiny

The Discovery and Settlement of Hawai‘i
​
Hawai‘i Loa, or Ke Kowa i Hawai‘i, was one of the four children of Aniani Ka Lani.1 The other three were Ki, who settled in Tahiti, Kana Loa, who settled the Marquesas, and Laa-Kapu. The ocean was called Kai Holo-o-ka-I‘a (Ocean where the fish run). Only two islands existed and both were discovered and settled by Hawai‘i Loa. The first he named Hawai‘i after himself; the second Maui, after his eldest son. (The other islands were created by volcanoes during and after the time of Hawai‘i Loa.

Migration, Making the Connection to Mālama Honua

4/25/2021

0 Comments

 
The stars of the sky have long provided kanaka with the path to where we are now. These stars, currents, and makani made way to finding Ka Pae ʻĀina and will continue to guide us in our future endeavors to connect us to our ever-changing honua. One example of this connection is Mālama Honua and the Hōkūleʻa Voyage.

When focusing on the migration of the Hawaiian people, please answer the following questions:


1. Why did kanaka migrate to Hawaiʻi? What were some reasons that you may know?

2. What type of resources did they bring on their journey when leaving another kaiāulu/moku? If you were voyaging now, what type of resources would you bring our your voyage?

3. Ultimately, migration somehow connects us all. How do the Hōkūleʻa and its voyage around the world connect us to others around the world? What was the mission or goal for the Hōkūleʻa voyage? Do you think the Hōkūleʻa accomplished its goal with the Mālama Honua?

Our Culture Still Exists:  ʻAuʻaʻia

4/24/2021

0 Comments

 
Hawaiian culture is based on the family and the land, which are foci for a wide range of literature. Names are applied to islands, regions, and. particular places along with their salient features, such as winds, rains, and land formations. In sayings, chants, and songs, Hawaiians praise their own land and taunt others. Origin myths, legends, historical narratives, and stories transmit the accumulated knowledge about a place. Education emphasizes learning these detailed traditions about oneʻs own land as well as others. This treasury of knowledge is used in turn to create new works to formulate new perspectives and solve new problems.

Click Here to view the 1839 Bill of Rights of the Hawaiian Kingdom and the 1840 Hawaiian Kingdom Constitution.
1. God hath made of one blood all nations of men, to dwell on the face of the earth in unity and blessedness. God has also bestowed certain rights alike on all men, and all chiefs and all people of all lands.

2. These are some of the rights which he has given alike to every man and every chief, life, limb, liberty, the labor of his hands and productions of his mind.

3. God has also established governments and rule for the purposes of peace, but in making laws for a nation it is by no means proper to enact laws for the protection of rulers only, without also providing protection for their subjects; neither is it proper to enact laws to enrich the chiefs only, without regard to the enriching of their subjects also; and hereafter, there shall by no means be any law enacted which is inconsistent with what is above expressed, neither shall any tax be assessed, nor any service or labor required of any man in a manner at variance with the above sentiments.
​4. These sentiments are hereby proclaimed for the purpose of protecting alike, both the people and the chiefs of all these islands, that no chief may be able to oppress any subject, but that chiefs and people may enjoy the same2 protection under one and the same law.

​5. Protection is hereby secured to the persons of all the people, together with their lands, their building lots and all their property and nothing whatever shall be taken from any individual, except by express provision of the laws. Whatever chief shall perseveringly act in violation of this Constitution, shall no longer remain a chief of the Sandwich Islands, and the same shall be true of the governors, officers and all land agents.
