Aloha, Want to relay my sincere appreciation for all the views of our segment in This is Utah. You know 11 minutes is not enough time to relay the history, happenings and web of details to our story. For one, Hawaiians were not the only Pacific Islanders who lived in Iosepa. Samoans were there as well and shared their fire knife tradition with the community. Two, Iosepa residents shared a deep and meaningful relationship with the Indigenous Tribes of Utah. And have stories that stretch across the generational divides. Before you lay judgment, in comments or otherwise, I challenge you to ask yourself how are you learning about your own history? How will you relay your experiences to the next generations, and how are you supporting and lifting up your people? That's what this is all about. Respectfully ~ Mahalo
Perfectly said. Beautiful. Thanks for the challenge as well
The Hawaiian people who lived in Utah at the time helped build the Salt Lake City Temple. These were amazing stories. Just imagine the trek they had to do. Come into California on a ship or canoe and walk from California to Utah. Crazy! Also it was pretty sad as well. Racism was really bad and they were treated bad.
Braddah nick🤙🤙🤙🤙
to do all of that and then have to return, what a journey!
Mormon religion is fake
Wow us hawaiians spread out far across the map that's awesome.
right! 🤣
I am not Hawaiian but I have been Iosepa. There is such a beautiful spirit there that testifies to how amazing the people that lived there were and are. Thank you for this.
our ancestors so smart, we can bring back all that knowledge, that, we can perpetuate the masterpieces of our ancestors. as the saying goes, My land, My ancestors, MY responsibility
The first Polynesians to arrive there and they laid the foundations for all the others who would come years later. Unfortunately the community declined and as a people we realized there's really nowhere like home. Even if you tell us it's some holy land in a book, it's not our land ❤️✌🏽
Aloha Kakou
Iosepa is a black eye for the Mormon church now they are putting fresh paint on it to look good.
yup yup.
@@sepetisionelatu5539ain't that the truth they try to sweep it under the rug. Mahalo 🤙🏾
Wow look at this piece of Hawaiian history and culture! Aloha. Beautiful piece
Mahalo for Sharing our Culture .
Kia Ora to our Hawaiian whanau!! Kia kaha to rongopai (stay strong in the gospel)

Glad you think so! Thank you for watching.
Awesome kanakas I NEVER know this. YOU SISTAZ and braddahz is A AURITE PROUD OF YOU IK OW THE TRIP OHANA FROM KALIHI... HAA HAA
YES WE ARE ALOHA
Is the whole point of the video to pioneer the Hawaiian navigators at the time or to broadcast their missionary influence on ‘The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints‘ migration from Hawaii to Utah? I just seemed a bit confused with what was shared in the video and the title of the video? Nonetheless, sending out love to our Hawaiian or Polynesian pioneers! God bless ♥️
You ALL need to create halau hula o utah😎🤙
Maika'i and Mahalo nui loa for sharing your legacy ❤❤❤❤
That was true story I love this story
M y great-grandfather John K. Alapa was born there❤. His parents are from Laie, Oahu. They
went to Skullcally / Iosepa to help build a temple, as I was told & his parents are buried there with other of our relatives ❤
Wow. I never knew. This is so cool. This gave me a happy feeling.
But then, on the other hand... it made me think about here, our homeland, which made me sad.
I guess even back then, you gotta do what you gotta do to survive.
Even if its purchasing stolen land elsewhere.
I can imagine the Hawaiians that first showed up were like "damn no water. Why did we come here?"
As a Kanaka Maoli ( Hawaiian ) I had no idea about this, but Living in Washington I only know about the "Kalama" Hawaiian/ Native Tribe here in southern Washington when John Kalama (A Carpenter from Maui) Arrived in the 1830s During the fur trades and Married a Chiefs Daughter, thus Creating the "Kalama" tribe.
Thanks for sharing!
♥♥♥
ALOHA mai...
proud to be KANAKA
Impressed of your new lands and it's great for us to have land elsewhere in the WORLD Mahalo NUI loa Iosefa for establishing our KANAKA MAOLI. We are not native Hawaiians. Please know that Hawaiian was created by those who illegally overthrow our Queen LILIUOKALNI

LDS believe Polynesians are the lost tribe of Israel. LDS conned King Kamehameha III out of thousands of acres of land that BYU Hawai'i now sits on. LDS converted many Hawaiians but treated them as second class. They and other Polynesians were not allowed to hold prominent positions in the cult, I mean "church".
Love it!!!
As a Kanaka, I want the ‘āina that our ancestors built Iosepa on to be LandBacked to the Ute Lāhui in solidarity. Kanaka Maoli, Kanaka Ute, and Kanaka Ute Maoli can figure out how we care for our relations to each other and the land but the LDS church needs to decolonize by LandBacking this place to Ute who should be the recognized sovereign nation to determine the ‘āina future.

Please keep sharing your MANA'O XLNT 🤙 VIDEO CONTENT NICE TO KNOW YOU CONQUERED A PIECE OF LAND IN AMERICA 🤙😎 MALAMA PONO
That land still belongs to the indigenous people it was stolen from. Just like Hawai'i was. Why do the same thing to other native peoples?
@@k10teky IOSEFA BOUGHT THE LAND IF I NOT MISTAKEN...
AND WE INDIGENOUS PEOPLES OF THE PACIFIC AND THE WORLD KNOW WHO STOLE EVERYTHING JUST ASK THE KING OF ENGLAND CHARLES OF WINDSOR, WHO IS A GERMAN OF ETHNIC DESCENT. HOPE THIS SATISFIED YOUR? REPLY. HAVE GREAT DAY 🤙😎
Look how far they put the Polynesian community outside the salt lake area! Saddening
But are you suprised
Ho'omaikai KANAKA! Ēo!!!!
What does Utah mean?
Two of the most common meaning ascribed to the word Utah are “.top of the mountain” and “people of the mountains”. Isaiah 2:2, “And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.”
@@stephenkenworthy1881 How did Isaiah 2:2 get into this meaning of Utah? Ain't you stretching and telling a lullaby bedtime story? Where in the Bible does it say that and even smear the name Utah? There are tops of mountains every where in the world, is that mean they are in the same boat as the name Utah in relation to Isaiah 2:2? Please share from within the Bible where you come up with your answer.
@@sepetisionelatu5539Native American Ute tribe who lived there long before LDS white pioneers arrived. They are still there but forced on reservations. Utah means “people of the mountains” in the Ute language and has nothing to do with the Bible.
Kanaka Maoli
Colonizers will always be colonizers. Pacific ways of life were changed when they arrived at our shores. Some were forced to change their ways of life and change their beliefs. some are lucky to keep their culture and language, others didn't, like Hawaii. So let's not praise someone who doesn't need praising. History is a lie. Not only we lost our ways of life and our language. We lost our lands too. So all that lost that our people received from these colonizers they don't need praising. We need to unite and take back what is ours. The same people who ran the Roman empire are still in control. They are taxing and taking everything from us. Free my Pacific people. 🤙♥️🙏
come back home, you're on another people's land. Don't colonize, your mana comes from this land.
You gonna help with rent and mortgage payments?
@@grytestriped4840 fair. da kine really needs to step up to lower da prices
@@spinner7801 eh. your child possessed your mana and the mana of your spouse. it was genealogical mana I think your kumu was referring to. when you killed your enemy, their mana from their bones would go to you hence why the bones of the chiefs are always hidden along with that of captain cook's bones
No huhu, bruddah, it's all desert. Da haoles don't want it. 😂
@@GNMi79 naw, da native americans know how to make use of dat land atleast
Colonizers ai kae. Free our oceania brothers and sisters free Hawai'i
Its kinda like these guys didnt go through the religious upheaval that hawaii went through. I bet they dont have mahus anymore
We hawaiians have our religion. LONG LIVE KING KAMEHAMEHA THE FIRST 🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾 Just leave us alone
Joseph F Smith said, THEY will not love you like I do…I will not be able to advocate for you, go home. Aue no ho’i, who are THEY? it sounds of racism. Wē all understand who THEY are? The alaka’i of the church and its people. That is the reason I’m no longer a member.
I love you Olulani Chai o Utah, ke Akua pū. not Papa🌺
Why come to Hawaii?????
To exploit.
Shows how our ancestors can persevere through rough times. The saddest part when I see it is how they were also fooled by a made up religion. Believing in the legacy of Joseph Smith is based on faith as is the belief in Jesus. The difference is that they can show how Joseph pretty much made up the religion, how he plagiarized the book of abraham in the book of mormon, drawing over the Egyptian hieroglyphs that can now be proven. It's insane how someone can start such a huge religion and lifestyle out of lies. Not saying the Bible doesn't have its own and other religions as well, but when we can disprove things we have to change how we live around it. Better to live in truth for our future generations.
Wait a minute, a lot of the things ancient Hawaiians believed about gods and nature can be disproven too. But many Hawaiians still talk about them as if they were true. They refer to Pele, for instance, as if she were an actual living being. But we all know that a volcano is just a geological phenomenon.
Yeah but does Pele take advantage of them?
It seems so unreal. But it’s not untrue.
You and no one else has disproven anything. Speculation isn’t proof. When you assert things that aren’t proven facts then you are pushing your own dogmatic agenda. You know exactly what you are doing
@@Elmaddizzy What makes you think you know better than the Mormons themselves whether they're being "taken advantage of" or not? You're not their keeper. The people in the video don't look like they're being subjugated in any way. Let them make their own decisions. If they felt they were being taken advantage of, they obviously wouldn't stick with it.
Interesting you end with fire dancing….which is not really Hawaiian.smh.
They ate rice. That's not Hawaiian either, are you going to tell Hawaiians they can’t eat rice?
how come your accent all funny kine? also... a Kanaka cemetery on another Natives stolen land... aole pono. that is hala and kapu.
imagine if Sacagawea was buried in England?... do you see the problem?.
but the fact that this makes more people aware of the displacement is a good thing I guess.
anyway that's my mana'o. they took the land, put a ban on our language, told us our heritage was evil that includes HULA and our own religion, and we must convert to save our savage souls. then brought disease to our pristine paradise that had no disease and was flourishing. don't even get me started on Kanaka Cemetery... I no tink she even know what went on in Kailua! o.0 ... other than it's a nice golf course there... anyways I goin way off topic now have a good day. 🤣
Most of these people barely have any Kanaka in dem now a days they are so washed up. The koko is gone
A me? He koko piha kou.
Too many hapa
Plastic Hawaiians
Another way to take the kanaka out of Hawaii … an to keep misleading … 😂 an can jus speak English cuhz you butchering the kanaka language 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ho’okano ‘oe
@@vp3970 use it in a sentence please

He kanaka ho’okano ‘oe. Maupopo iā oe?
He was not a prophet! Blasphemy!
It's such a shame, people came to Hawaii and tricked them into believing such nonsense 🙄.
