The State has been trying to deal with the longest issue of Proper protocals to return land to kanaka. But to active practitioners not just those saying they’re hawaiian by blood . You needed to know your history, geneology, and be proactive as a practitioner. Because Christianity was feligayed to hate on #Mahu the highest priests/priestess over all lines who was guided by High Regent priestesses. They would come to Kauanoe, I seen the altar that delegated time of Mene. Smart people own things, intelligent people separate things and idea, social people converse about stuff. They thing stuff is better than #qualitystuff , but what was better than those #thestoryaboutstuff. The elders of Kaua’i had decided the rules- you interview I answer or (refrain). Theres parenthesis because thats what you see on music , poems font have them its a blank spot…did you know how mich (refrain) are in the array of alllllll the mele , oli, auna and kahiko chants? The refrain was a reminder like kalamaku festivals to pause snd ho bavk to the chorus, the topic, you were given a story from the middle at its high peak of existence, then refrain and go back to remember WHY WHAT and WHO…HOW?[exactly, how? How did we get here, how did we lose it all, we were told we have privileges…no your grandparents had it, they need to pass that to you or come to hula, waa or kuhikuhi in order to hooponopono.]One of these leaders have to foster you like water, ebb and flow; if your not ready they just cut you off. No words. Come back fir understanding when you ready. Well, everyones trying to read hawaiian books. Nobody did about Water logs. I not only had to gather all info about home I had to teach it to my Aunts who only knew locations, has few items from their grandparents ( they were the chosen to pass it on) , plus it was easier there was less hawaiians on Kauai due the “Beheading Act “ of Kamehameha (Ka’ahumanu). 🤦♀️ Um So Aunty “librarians” and a bunch of uneducated olelo speaking ahupuaa planting half breeds that is 50,000 poepoe more than you had. How far back are we looking? You know Wailuanui and below, your dad and the 5 [ma]uka they dont sea wat you “read”. #Backback @savekoloa https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc1JBZUPC6M/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
