- Hawai’i was an independent nation with its own kingdom when the descendants of missionaries from the U.S. overthrew its government. Today, Native Hawaiians are struggling to afford to live on the land that was once stolen from their ancestors.

Another awesome video! thank you for your work and dedication!
Excellent!! I love it! Thank you for this short documentary. I can’t believe how you could managed to put all this information in a 10 min video.
Quick question, how come these so called liberal progressives politicians and political parties do absolutely nothing to help these people? I hear crickets when this question. I'm a minority myself and I'm sorry, im not going to be bamboozled by these people. Yes dole and others racked up a fortune from taking advantage of the people ao how come they aren't held accountable? How come the rich white people get away with murder but the poor ones get the hate? Its propaganda.
In my opinion. I don't know if there's much similarity in what I'm going to say But. Puerto Rico is full of corrupt immoral politicians, which were bought by foreign investors who only care about their pockets and that's why we are where we are. Additionally, a doctrine has been created in children, youth and adults so that they do not see the common good and more personally. which creates a social crisis. And culturally our identity is lost. We already know how the case is Sixto George that the media works with the government to instill this creating a change of mind hating the culture and language in which you were born. This is what happens now and it happened in the past.
@@y.marrero Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it.
I didn't know much about Hawaiis history prior to becoming a state, but when the narrator said how the u.s. overthrew their government and banned their language in schools really felt eerily familiar. The native american suffered the same faith!!
Native Floridians are being pushed out too.
It's not just the NA.
It's happening all over now more and more. The margin between rich and poor are becoming larger.
america is basically nazis we suck
So did the African
How important is this video even more now after the Maui attacks. Any house and land owner on Hawaii is now a target of colonialism
No wonder, at present day the Lord God Almighty send its "divine fire" to destroy the whole of Maui. The oppression of the Natives Hawaiian displeases God. Be warned..!
Always was. Black Rock trying to re-colonize what was already colonized .
that fire in Hawaii was probably set on purpose, to steal the land, they're already moving in to buy the Beach from property land worth Multi MILLIONS ,,it's all Greed
Ke Akua Help the heart of Mankind. Heal the land. Yhe hearts 💕 Make ALOHA NOW
Beyond colonialism, it will be a DICTATORSHIP, like we never seen before. They want to destroy the Hawaiian Spirit and the people. By killing them and take their land.
Thank you for this heartbreaking education. I was never taught this part of history while in school 😢
Dnt feel bad. I was in school 20 yrs ago... and they never taught this either. I believe they r writing history today as we speak in public schools. Its sickening.
All I have ever been taught in school was how terrible and evil the US and everyone else’s. I have never been taught in school that Hawaii gladly entered into the United States union. Give them independence tomorrow, the country would fall to pieces in a matter of months. They would be begging to be part of the US system. It’s unfortunate that the world is tough, but reimagining the way reality works is nuts.
Really?min the US? Because- I was never taught about all of the violent battles between the previous residents before colonialism or all of the horrible land wars and blood that they themselves were guilty of…or anything good that came from a pre-industrial society going to a paleolithic one- If anything, I was ONLY every taught this version of history
@@zigmunstardust4567The only people who were allowed to vote was the military. Of course the military wanted Hawaii to become a state. Natives never had a choice.
@@littleboi5286 friend- That’s not actually true, they wanted US dollar, they wanted US infrastructure, Hawaii welcomed being part of the US state with open arms. It’s only now that Hawaii is facing the same problem as the rest of the United States with housing and the like, that all of a sudden it’s a bad deal. People love being ethnocentric and blaming other people for their problems, it’s human nature.
May this video reach every person with a phone. 🙏🏽💜⚡️
When the Missionaries came to Africa, they had the Bible and we had the land. They said "Let us Pray". We closed our eyes. When we opened them, we had the Bible and they had the land - Desmond Tutu
And this question I've asked since, why keep following the white man's religion?
❗❗❗💯❗❗❗
✨🌹✨
That’s call religion Magic 😂❤. When you believe it happens.
@@jimmym2719Yes, when YOU believe, ‘it’ happens. Works every single time. Make believe with bedtime stories.....Still going on today and that’s why AFRICA will NEVER recover....😢
This is not just something that happens in Hawaii, it’s happening everywhere… Rich people always price out and then push out the locals when they come to any town.
@@zmalek2555 Y’all? Let’s get one thing straight, I am not a Liberal and I hate liberals and Democrats. Calling every white person a liberal is ignorant.
so true. There's a documentary about a small town that got invaded but old rich white people. They gentrified the whole frickin town. Workers couldn't afford to live in that town (on murican mainland). It was ridiculous. Some businesses had to expand on the property they were lucky enough to own so that the workers could have a place to live that they could afford. This generation has sucked up, consumed, and shat out most of the resources and opportunities their parents and grandparents worked hard for, and will leave next to nothing for future generations. For example, they'll get more than their SS while I only get 70% of what I put in. Their grandchildren will get even less. And the politicians, their generation, wants to give them more. They're worse than a plague of locusts.
Very true how about the people bitching about the Mexican Southern border California used to be Mexico typical entitled Americans so selfish and prideful
No. Rich White people who want to gentrify everything. In Puerto Rico, we're fighting them back for trying to privatize our fucking beaches. White people don't like us in the states, and want to take our home too.
Same in my country with islands
Im a haole from NC who came to Hawaii with the occupation forces (army) in 2014. Luckily I met a bunch of lifelong friends both local and Kanaka's who showed me the other side and taught me a ton about this place where Im forever a guest, but I now am lucky enough to consider my home. Its fuckin criminal the way many people are forced to live here. And its all so people can come and vacation from all over the world and have the time of their lives while ignoring the people sleeping in parks, parking lots, and on sidewalks and beaches. To be honest, I hope that one day they can take it back.
Watching this after jumping down the Maui "wildfire" rabbit hole. Those people were right all along, the government is completely responsible for what happened. 🤦🏽♂️
This is heartbreaking! We made many trips to Hawaii and payed the highest prices for lodging, food, and entertainment. We assumed these monies went to the Hawaiian people. It is terribly sad to see that the American government put policies into play that crippled this nation of people. I hope more land is not taken out of the hands of those who were born there. Folks, do not let anyone tell you that you should sell your land. Don’t sell!
I think if they refuse. Something bad will happen to them just as native Indians and Venezuela..
@@halimahshamsiddeen9649Just look at what happened with those fires. There's already realestate offering pennies to buy up their land just like Oprah. Unless of your Hawaiian decent you shouldn't be allowed own any land.
God Almighty has given the lands to the original people that's why he created their culture and languages strategically. This is a SPIRITUAL BATTLE Unfortunately the enemy has infiltrated churches organisations and institutions.
😢😢😢😢😢
@@halimahshamsiddeen9649 World Wide
This is happening all over the world. Many people being displaced in their own countries from foreign invaders.
I'm a tribal Native. I feel ya and understand. This happened to EVERY First Nation's tribe on the continental U.S.
Say thank you to Mark Zuckerberg
@BohemothWatts-vz1lc Zuckerberg is a POS. But my comment has nothing to do with Zuckerberg, it's in reference to our government.
Slavery Colonialism and Colonization are evil things done by evildoers.
The fact that there are over 40 nations and territories in Europe for Christian Europeans to invade and Colonize.
Why Native-American land?
Why Asia-Pacific land, may I ask? 😔
This happens to all indigenous people on a global scale. I remember as a child watching cartoons featuring the Tasmanian devil. I had no idea that there used to be a Tasmanian people. And look at what Shell did to the Ogoni people. I could go on and on, but I think I've made myself clear, and I know other commenters may wish to add to the list.
Global
Thank you so much!
I definitely shared this…people should know this story, which is so incredibly timely!
Hawaii is a tropical paradise i was there decades ago and the people are warm and friendly
Our educational system sucks. Never knew this happened. What a disgrace.
They don't teach "woke"....right?
Now YOU KNOW AND THERE IS MORE THAN YOU THINK ! Puerto Rico , Mexico lands !
Most don't read or know history. They did this to themselves
How sad it makes me cry
Literally you’ll never heard anything negative in American history classes in public schools other than Slavery and Jim Crow.
All the atrocities are left out purposely for major colleges and universities where history can be studied deeply.
This needs to be told , again and again. Folks, read " Notes of a Native Daughter".
Maybe try shutting up?
Yapping sure hasn't helped and that's been going on long enough to prove it.
Just how long you planning to beg before understanding that getting off your fat arse and moving forward is the answer to accomplishment?
Good luck
Great video!!! I agree that learning from Hawaii to prevent natives/local people from being pushed out is the way to go for places like Puerto Rico and any other country experiencing pressure from the US.
Also hopefully no one takes advise from that real estate agent lady. I almost lost it when she said gentrification "wasn't such a bad thing" smh!
Watching this 8/24/2023 seems very prophetic to me. May God be with all native Hawaiians ❤
EDIT: Read the Princess' diary. Published AFTER the Royal Hawaiian Family was imprisoned by merchants, and US Government, by use of US Military. It was STOLEN!! The Princess was well educated and was multilingual. So regal and elegant. And HUMBLE! My heart goes out to the people who have fought for over a century to retain their heritage and autonomy. Please, don't hate all of us?
💔💔💔💔💔 sending prayers for the people of Maui 🙏🙏🙏
Same story, different culture. 😔 Enough is enough. The native spirits are evidently crying out for justice all over the globe. It shall be served respectively. 💚
and the common denominator is anglosaxons.
That’s why Planned Fire in Lahaina to buy Native Land! People are waking up!! Thank you for the video ❤
@@user-vc5qk9tg7u Anglo-Saxon is a culture that died out around 1066 AD . It is Not a Race. So next question racist? The English from England Colonized Hawaii . So next question ?English = Native Britons (Celts and Gaels) , Latins (Basque , Italic, and Spanish ), Germanic (Over 20 different Language groups and cultures around 500AD) , Scandinavians , Irish , Welsh , French (Aquitanians , Gauls, Roman Latin , Spanish , Basque, Germanic ) All of these groups are part of the DNA of Modern England . Then you have also Chinese , Africans , Middle Easterners and Indian later integration
@@roboparks I agree , the Normans invaded England 1066 , but they really did not replace or cleanse England completely some ethnic English are still 30 40 % Anglo-Saxons , 30 40 % British . Race is such a social construct .
The original Native Hawaiians were a black colored people. They hide the truth but it’s very much still available to research it for yourself. Majority (if not all) of the native Hawaiians were bread (wiped) out a long time ago.
Native Hawaiians first!!! I am not Hawaiian but I did grow up here ❤ my heart hurts from all the injustices. There should NOT be even 1 homeless Hawaiian here.
LOL I guess you know nothing about capitalism, it is the freed0m to expl0it ordinary amarikans by their very own oligarchs.
Unfortunately the middle and lower classes are being hit hard in every state, not just in Hawaii. Eventually, if something isn't done there will be only two classes, the rich ruling class and the poor and there will be no middle class. Herein lies the problem. The middle class is what built the USA to be strong, but it's evaporating away. The midwest used to have small towns, factories and agriculture and now they are ghost towns and the residents who stayed are poor or on drugs living a depressed life with no work. Now the cities are being gentrified and locals being prices out, same for beach front property in small towns up and down the eastern coast. It's not just Hawaii, it's everywhere, and it isn't just the USA it's over in Europe and everywhere else too the middle class is drying up leaving rich and poor only.
in short a return to the good ole of days of european feudal class, where the super rich suck the life out of ordinary plebs, only this time, the plebs will be so distracted, they will fall in love with the super rich.@@vaskylark
I’ll never forget that the Hawaiian monarchs sold out its people and land so that they could live high on the hog. The sandalwood trade of the early 1800’s is a prime example.
I see you included a clip of Haunani-Kay Trask. She is one of my favorite people and activists.
Thank you for making this video 🧡
This is also happening in Bonaire 🇧🇶 where tourism and real estate market is booming, and locals cannot afford to live, own a home here anymore.

I wasn’t too shocked because she’s a realtor.
@@armykayla9971 😂 factz
The realtor looked more European than Native anyway.
@@bojack2011 sure, let’s go judging people off the looks.
@@OkikaHawaii im not judging anyone. The woman looks more European than Native. It's not an issue to point that out.
As a Native American I share your pain
LoL, it's not funny but I gotta admit, Its so horrible we must have a little laughter, as if it's a joke.
Slavery, Colonialism & Colonization are evil things done by evildoers. 😔
Native American people have not occupied an inch of European land, or slaughtered a single European in Europe; while European Colonizers have occupied both North & South America lands and terminated 99.9% of Natives population.
May I ask why not let Native Americans have Europe, since Europeans have had both North/South America Continents already; a fair deal?
Remember the saying, "You can't have your cake and eat it too", and "A man's gotta do, what a man's gotta do". 🤷
- Civil war ended centuries-long Slavery worldwide.
- World War II ended centuries-long Colonialism worldwide.
- World War III ends centuries-long Colonization worldwide... Just saying.
@@davidh4129Precisely! We do NOT own the Earth, the Earth owns us...and one day we will return to her. We all share a short stay here... enjoy it while it lasts!
Absolutely friend me too as a native Cherokee; and none of this land is anyone’s to own- the creator has given it as a resource to respect and be able to use for when we are here however man has ruined it - trying to own something they never had the right too
Speaking of Native American people who have not occupied an inch of European land, or slaughtered a single European in Europe; while European Colonizers have occupied both North & South America lands and terminated 99.9% of Natives population.
* Speaking of Europe which is actually a huge livable Continent with 45 nations. Russia alone is a ginormous nation which occupies nearly half of Europe with a relatively small population. Nearly half of mainland Asia, from Siberia to Far-East Asia also is inside Russia. No wonder Mother Russia is so very huge.
* By the way, the "land grab" is more of the same in the Asia-Pacific region where European Colonizers such as Britain and Russia have already Colonized half of Asia, stretching from Australia/New Zealand, to Siberia/Far-East, all in the Asia-Pacific region.
* Russia occupied vast resource rich Siberia to Far East ever since 17th & 18th century, while Anglo British, sailing halfway around the world from jolly old England, took over giant resourceful landmass of Australia & New Zealand in 18th & 19th century; all in Asia-Pacific, while Native people of Asia-Pacific region are left with and quarreling over a few tiny islands in South China Sea while Anglo Australia/New Zealand have already claimed big chunks of nearby Antarctica.
Thanks for sharing such an important and eye-opening documentation in present times and the struggles of the native peoples. My prayers are with you all🙏
Wow! Eye opening story!
Thank you so much for the enlightenment!
Absolutely heartbreaking!
Save Hawaii!
Bless you all!🙏👍💪🏻😎
As a little boy, my family always said I don’t ever be like Hawaii learn your language. This resonates with me because it’s not the fault of the people. It’s the fault of the government and what our Hawaiian Brothers and sisters had to go through.
We have the same struggle with what the British done, and continue to do to us 1st Australians. Ngubunji-adhang (much love) to Kanaka Maoli , we care. Stay strong my Pacific Brothers, Sisters and Elders 💪🏾✊🏾🖤💛❤️ Shout out to the Sister who presented this video! Thankyou for sharing! Much love and respect

Explain how Aboriginal culture was superior to that of muskrats or beavers? Because as far as I can tell, it's the muskrats and beavers who had a superior culture, with much greater technology and architecture.

@@drewlongbottom9944 I didn't expect you to actually ANSWER the question.
@@josephinetracy1485 Yeah, because the question was incredibly stupid.
Prays for every person that are being pushed and distorying.
i was literally just in hawai’i a few days ago for a week for vacation and this video popped up in my youtube feed. this was my bf and i’s first time visiting. he asked a few people that grew up living there what it’s like. they each said it’s very expensive and they have to do a lot to continue living there. they also brought up how natives there are not proud to be american. we learned a lot of culture while visiting hawai’i and also were in very tourist areas, areas mentioned in this video actually. it is stunning there but it is very sad and i feel for them. this video further educates people on the issues so ty for this. i hope one day more people realize this bc their culture and land truly is incredible.
Seeing the tragedy now in Lahaina makes the plight of natives even more significant. To see Hawaii developed and the lush, green tropical forests gone and the wildfire destruction is heartbreaking. I noticed too that most of the people who lost their homes to fire are not native peoples. Their culture is to exploit and now we see the consequences in death and destruction. My heart breaks for the natives and for the land.
that was no " wildfire" too many suspicious actions and official decisions that make no sense if they were trying to help
The Hawaiian elders fought to keep that area devastated by fire from developers and won in court with only caveat unless a “natural” disaster. I am not certain you are correct that this effected mostly non natives since Hawaiian elders wanted it protected for their people
Absolutely! Always the burn out method is used to utlize Eminent Domain. Governor Green even said he was contemplating selling the Lahaina peoples lands to the government. It's all historical strategy- crimminal acts for power & greed.
welcome to U$ gen0cides, the best in the world, where those being gen0cided will continue to love their european settlers.
The God of Abraham shall be willing to put right, all the oppression and suffering the Natives Hawaiian have endured all these years. God speed Justice Lord! 🙏😇🙏
Watching this after the disaster that just hit Maui that very much feels like it was planned - prayers I have cried all afternoon; and msm no one is talking about how schools let out the childern ; no fire hydrants worked no alert system or alarms where sounded - and I have been reading from boots on the ground that many of the missing are those Childern who the school let out just before the fires started - all of this seems very fishy and as a Native American my heart hurts today and I have cried I can not imagine the pain of the ppl - my thoughts with the native Hawaii people
It is NOT plan. If you’re familiar with Natural disaster, you will know it happens all the time.
The state government of Maui is incompetent! That’s 100%
But, I do believe corporation/rich people will take advantage of the situations of the fires.
This is the biggest crime against humanity in my lifetime
It is a crime - and may I just add - I don’t mean that like that everyone should have a chance - that’s exactly how i feel everyone should have a chance at life and no one has the right to run over another person or take with no respect - I love all people based on character - but it is just like my front door - it’s locked right now - if you knock I’ll open it and as long as your not a maniac I’ll let you in but I don’t leave my front door wide open for monsters to come in at night - there’s some real bad folks out there - it takes some descernment and prayers to take care of yourself and your family that’s should be the way to do things- if not then you would have to wonder why and the kinda person that doesn’t understand that - don’t be a sheep 🐑
I'm a True believer in God and in my spirit and my soul tells me that this was a crime from someone who is American (the same thing Happened in Canada- SO CALLED FOREST BULLSHIT FIRE!! this is insane they're trying to take land this way and try to kill Hawaiian people 😢😡WE AS PEOPLE ARE MORE THAN THESE CRIMINALS..WE NEED TO FIGHT ..FIGHT!!
World about to watch a modern day land grab of W Maui right in front of all our eyes. This was done intentionally!
It's extremely sad to see how the Hawaiians have been pushed out of their homes, language altered, etc by Japanese colonizing the islands. I really hope the Hawaiians can get everything back that is rightfully theirs.
It's Americans who took over not the Japanese
Also part of the problem I think is that main land Americans see Hawaii just like Puerto Rico a place they can visit and forget that it’s not part of the states. If we did what we do to Hawaii or Puerto Rico to let’s say Arkansas. America would be in its next civil war asking why we are doing that to Americans when we already are.
I'm married to a Native Hawaiian. We live in Las Vegas. Thank you for this. My wife loves what you're doing.

It breaks my heart 💔 how the Hawaiian Islands have been exploited by outside people.
The islands need to belong to the Hawaiians and stay with the Hawaiians
Hawaii should be restored back to the indigenous natives and their royal government restored and be independent.
@@SherryUribe I fully support this, it would collapse in a matter of months, and they would be begging to join the United States union again, just as they were happy to do it before. I’m so tired of you all taking history out of context to get these sanctimonious pearl clutching grievances.
apparently, you didn't see the video and if not then go directly to around the 8 minute segment and see how one native hawaiian, the natives would not only exist but thrive without any haole help !! I'm native, went to Punahou school and lived and worked at the post office, honolulu international airport high end security and then became financially independent; while moving to Virginia a few months before Covid broke out. I can tell you now that the natives are being priced out, but they also have a chance to gain their land back(perhaps not all of it) but enough to become independent thriving citizens again; just as the native indians of north america have done and will continue to do.@@zigmunstardust4567
thank you for sharing the voices of kānaka maoli & educating on what is happening . i’m glad to have learned more about hawaiʻi and i hope people can open their eyes to the both the history and what is going on now .
I was watching a video featuring Hawaii natives who sold their land to Zuckerberg, and afterwards complaining that they assumed the buyer, represented by lawyers, was a local boy who was going farm it. They whined that the land they sold was stolen too...
aloha Bianca...sending love and compassion to Hawaian people ...may the victims of this horrible desaster in Maui rest in peace..
AS a Puerto Rican under colonial rule who lived in Oahu for two years, I made an effort to study the history of the islands and the pain I experienced for the people of Hawaii was the same pain I experienced as one who wants to live in a free country, free and independent. Some day justice will be done. Another Albizu will do it.

So horrible how they burnt them out. Let's raise money for them and give them the land tax free etc.
Incredible how we give everyone money except for our own and the owners of the land.
Oh, thank you for this education. Most Americans have no idea of Hawaiian history.🙏🏽
Most people from all over don't know Hawaiian history
I didn’t know as I was born in the US in 1961. This was never taught in our private or public schools as I went to both. Thankfully this can come to our attention with post like this. I been to Hawaii 2 times and Kauai was my favorite as it seemed less commercial and the people there seemed happier. At 50, I stepped into the beauty of Hawaii and am very sad to here what the wealth oligarchs are doing and how they pay off governments to do so.
We went to Hawaii on a trip and took a tour and our tour guide told us the history of Hawaii including what is talked about here . She said it is usually not told and it was so sad and eye opening. As someone from the Philippines with all her imperfections, I so glad we fought for independence. We still own our lands passed down from generation to generation.
I also don't give a damn about history or anyone else's lives but by own. This is why I am happier .
Most Americans have only been taught the worst most insane versions of their history… Including this. This has no contacts, it’s just grievance for grievance sick. Giveaway independence, the whole thing with crumble in a month and we could stop having these ridiculous conversations that are based in reality
This is heartbreaking. I went to Bootcamp in 1999 with a Native Hawaiian. I remember the sadness in her eyes when she spoke of how Hawaii is too expensive to live in. It seems to have worsened. 🤨😒😔
Pretty much after 2008, everything just got worse in a most accelerated fashion too. Like a studio in Hawaii used to cost right around $550 to $600 between 2003 to 2008. Then from 2008 to 2013, it quickly jumped up to $1,200 to $1,500, and still going higher rapidly pace wise.
Hyperinflation so that the island becomes white. Same tactic Europeans play across the 3rd world and same tactic Israel applies in Palestine. Even within US, cities and towns where there is a large minority presence, hyperinflation exists, while US cities, states, or towns that are white are the least expensive but minorities cannot live there due to institutional racism and intimidation from population. In Los Angeles, I cannot lease a nice appartment without having a six figure salary as landowners make it more difficult, but I can buy almost a mansion compared to California housing standards in the MidWest and South with my savings and salary. However, the market and people will make it more difficult for me to obtain one because I am not American white. Banks and real state agents will more discriminatory. There is discrimination in the progressive states but at least you can find housing, but little by little everyday unregulated inflation due to institutionalized racism directed at minorities is becoming more prevalent.
Thats whybthe WELFARE in those places is so rampant.
I am Native Hawaiian, I was born and raised there. Therefore I am native. Those who have Hawaiian ancestry have been treated like blacks and told they are victims. And you want to know who was failing in our schools and living off of social programs. Many with Hawaiian blood are living their life waiting for a free house on a Hawaiian homestead.
please don't call us native hawaiian. it's kanaka maoli or indigenous hawaiian. native hawaiian means a person born in the state of hawaii, they can be any race.
This is happening all over the place. People who grow up in towns no longer can afford to live there. They bring in millions of immigrants and international students and jack up the property tax while refusing to allow anyone to build affordable housing. I had to move out of my town 30 miles away and now I'm 400 miles away because I couldn't find any place to rent. Even sadder when indigenous people can't afford to live in the place their ancestors have lived for thousands of years.
People everywhere need to to stop the WEF.
The same thing was done to the Native Americans on the mainland. My ancestors suffered greatly. So I do know and understand the struggle of the Hawaiian people 🥺
All people who have white people "discover" their land knows this feeling...at what point are we goi g to start doing something about it is the question.

40 years ago I had visited Hawaii and spoke with Hawaiians weather they liked Hawaii being a state since my family is from Puerto Rico and had their opinions about PR becoming a state. Back then, Hawaiians said it was not a good thing for various reasons and they said they hoped PR did NOT become a state. So now it seems things have gotten soooo bad. It breaks my heart for Hawaiians. I hope Puerto Rico does not become a state. Everyone has their opinion but PR can learn a lot from what has happened to Hawaii over the years.
Have you not a part of the United States please don't be stay the way you are cuz United States they're going to hell
Maybe we met. lived there 12 years. There was still pineapple and taro and the best mangos. Left 40 years ago. And above all the people are beautiful. Aloha!
I hope the Puerto Rican people wake up!
1 thing for certain, US government is evil, shame on it, busy inciting wars in other countries in the name or pretext of liberating them, yet under their nose, the indegenous Hawaiians need their freedom from US, irony isn't it, look at Iraq, Afghan etc all were ' liberated,' by US who sent wars to overthrow their governments without ever consulting those people about wanting 'freedom', now their countries lie in ruins in much worse conditions than ever before. America is an apertheid country. Let alone to talk out people of color in their country who are not free.
Seems like Hawaii just turned into Beverly Hills or something, God bless the Hawaiian people they deserve better from their homeland
FACTS!!!!
Maybe they should stop selling their property, You get out of towners cannot buy land their if its not for sale
I thought diversity is a strength?
@@ironpig701 how can they when the white peoples laws have increasingly ruined the cost of living in the islands? Policies such as the Jones Act have made life harder and more expensive to maintain in Hawaii. They're not selling their property just to sell their property, they have no choice and migrate outwards to the mainland and abroad to survive.
@@ironpig701 It’s easy to be ignorant on the internet. Maybe you should do some research before commenting about things you know nothing about.
All pineapple grown by outside sources should be sold to outside sources and given free to native peoples that’s what I would do since I’m growing it there ❤
There are lot’s of question to be answered… and above all Where are the Missing People?… Where are the missing Children?…
The truth has to come out. It's time to reclaim the land for the children of the land and not for eccentric billionaires who have luxury homes and don't care about anything or anyone and the corrupt governments that allow all kinds of abuses that fuel these disasters !

Are you asking the rightful inhabitants of the land to "work hard" for their oppresors as the solution to this problem¿
Also the same thing happened to American Indian, Eskimo, Indians in South America, and Tibetans on Chinese border. Much more
Question is how long till the Hawaiians finally snap and fight back for their lands.
This is something that has been systematically planned for decades now.
I remember watching an episode of the Jefferson's, where they went on vacation in Hawaii and they had an episode about land developers kicking folks off their land.
I would be interested in seeing the facts of this episode and how it can strengthen my intuition.
Government should try building public housing like apartments with a good security. This can help increase local employment.
@Arjun Savanur the government shouldn't have the right to take other countries and people's land. That is the a tual problem.

I am Filipino and was amazed the first time I saw California, then 2nd time Seattle, wow! But now looking at the plight of some native Hawaiians being forced out of their homeland, I am glad Philippines kept her independence from the US! Although we are a poor country, at least we have kept our more than 120 native languages and customs. Even though we are western in so many ways because of the Spanish and American occupations, we still have our distinct Fil culture and traditions, but most of all we have our land!
Must be why 100% of Filipino women dream of finding an American man, marrying him and having half American babies with him. Hardly any other nationality besides for Filipino females drop their panties faster at the very first eighth of an American man.
Exactly! Get rid of all the military bases!
Perhaps the people of Puerto Rico may also learn from us, the Filipinos. The winding and tumultuous roads we took towards nationhood, the ups and downs as to how we got here stumbling along the way and even now still strugling. It's been difficult as to even this day we are still trying to regain our identity, our culture, our native languages, writings and dialects. But proudly, we are our own people in our own land. To quote Pres. Quezon's speech on civil liberties in 1939: I would rather have a government run like hell by Filipinos than a government run like heaven by any foreigner. I said that once; I say it again, and I will always say it as long as I live.
Unfortunately, Filipino kids who only spoke English are also increasing nowadays. We may be able to gain independence, but we're not totally off the hook because the Americanized elite class in the Philippines is continuing what the Americans started. Even though we can still say that 100+ languages in the Philippines are alive and thriving, the rise of English is also threatening their existence, a large-scale language shift within few generations could prove to be fatal to our languages.
@@kzm-cb5mr Result of the PISA (an int'l assessment test showed Phil lagging behind. Research shows that kids who learned English as 1st language have lower scores than those whose languages are Filipino or native languages
My name is Christopher kealiiokekai Coleman, I am a native kanaka. From Maui and I had to move to Michigan 20 years ago, and I see my Land and people suffer, and if I was king I would push the government back to where they come from.
We are but foreigners in any land. Things like this happen so we don't put all the eggs in one basket in this life. Where there is hurt, big life questions will be asked. In the life to come, nobody will be poor or pushed out.
Wow! How you gave this report before the Maui fires! I watched your video on Puerto and this is exactly what is happening in Maui! So sad for both Natives of Hawaii and Puerto Rico! Consider giving an update on Maui Thank you for this great presentation!

I knew some Hawaiian history pre-statehood bc I lived there from late 1954 to early 1957 when my father was stationed at Barber's Point Naval Air Station on SW point of Oahu. (I've even got hula records that were put out on the 49th State record label.) While the USGov's devious actions in acquiring the Kingdom was not emphasized in our school lessons, it was clear that a takeover took place AND not to the overall agreement by the Hawaiians at the time. I concluded sometime later that it was likely only those who personally profited by favors given who were enthusiastic. With advent of Internet, history of the Islands has been promoted widely AND communication btwn/among Native Hawaiians has become possible. THIS I am glad to see & truly hope that an improvement for the Native Hawaiians can/will take place.
The cost of living there is thru the roof! I lived there for five years. I was active duty at kbay. I seen and met many local Hawaiians living in the picnic parks. Most of the Hawaiians actually moved to Oahu. There is a lot of government subsidies there for the homeless , but there are rules they must abide by. But they chose to live in tent city parks, no rules to abide by!
I was in Hawaii on 2001 …
Beautiful island and people with open hearts ❤️
Delicious food 👍❤️
Good help Hawaiian people and blessed them 🙏

Tengo una pregunta personal para ti. Realmente crees en el nacionalismo o crees en un mundo que cada vez crea menos barreras en sus fronteras. Te doy un ejemplo: un psicólogo de México decide aprovechar la tecnología para trabajar desde Mexico generando trabajo para otros psicólogos generando ingresos muy buenos para ellos con clientes de USA. Consecuencia: En este caso hay muy poca oferta de psicólogos en USA por lo tanto todos ganan en el proceso. Otro ejemplo: un extranjero llega a USA y con su capacidad logra tener éxito. Aprovecha la buena educación y recursos de becas que no había en sus país. Muchos hacen lo mismo hasta que tienen mayor poder adquisitivo llevando a los que vivieron por generaciones en un país a tener que mudarse a lugares más pobres de USA. Consecuencia: las más grandes ciudades de USA son multiculturales. Donde yo vivo ya somos mayoría los que hablamos español. Y las mejores universidades de USA tienen porcentajes altos o incluso son mayoría los extranjeros.
Well...Puerto Rico is not even a state and it's been happening here...young Puerto Ricans leaving...people from USA and other countries buying the properties and rents going UP...
I went to Hawaii once and fell in love with the natural parts of the islands but i definitely hated the huge hotels sucking up all the natural beauty Hawaii use to have not to mention their proud heritage that companies are commercializing for their own profits
The same has happened to Australia. People have lost access to land and nature, have become shelterless (major crisis in QLD: 300 000 houseless. We are all are forced to eat imported junk food from supermarket corporations, and the natural resources have been sold to overseas.
Our Government needs to keep their hands off of the Hawaii Land. They need to help Hawaii Rebuild Their homes
I lived there for four years, and it's atrocious what the American culture and laws have done to Hawaii. I had to leave because I progressively became more and more depressed living around such sadness and poverty.

Yep, they started doing the same in New Zealand twenty years ago.
Back then a young family could still buy their first home for under $100,000. Now that same home is over $300,000. But that didn't take twenty years to happen, no it happened over night when wealthy Americans would offer twice what people were asking, which instantly pushed house prices to a point where first home buyers were phuk'd.
But they cashed in..... they voluntarily sold , and now they are complaining . They benefited at that time , but instead of investing the money , they spend it ...and they go really fast....IT'S not a one sided coin...!!!

Sorry to hear bro! That was a corrupted move to invoke corruption in your ppl and land. These bad ppl educate themselves on how to conspire corruption on good ppl land. Which is easier than building corruption on corrupted lands. I wonder if it's good or bad thing to teach our keiki corruption as part of the education system. There are a lot of life's truth that happens in our world that not everyone would want to educate oneself in. For the ones that dont go a find out the truth are now sided with the corrupters because of the fact that majority rules. Good example would be Donald trump and the Democratic party.
THANK YOU For Opening Our Eyes ❤
I'm not addressing the wildfires in Hawaii now, I just would like to know if natives, living in Hawaii are aware of the homeless problem on the mainland? Rising cost of housing? Investors buying all of the farmland? These issues we all have been subjected to. Speaking of "colonialism," Oprah, Zuckerberg, Julia Roberts, Bezos, and many more elite Americans own acreage on Maui, so are they all guilty of "colonialism?" It's called greed and whenever ANYONE (regardless of color) stands in their way, they will wipe you out. They develop a plan, based on their greed and then follow through with it. We see it all the time, a homeowner refuses to sell property that an investor desires, it may be a highway project or commercial project, if they refuse, it will be taken the hard way. Make no mistake, these super wealthy, elites have power and resources to make it happen. It is happening all over our country. Homelessness, poverty, drug abuse and death.
This just makes it clearer to see their agenda now that Maui is in ashes 🥺😪 my heart goes out to all the families…

The only way to take back Hawaii is to become self sufficient, growing your own food, creating your own water and not relying on the big companies. Support and buy from the native businesses.
Having the high rising buildings and typical looking same three-bedroom houses is shown as a sign of a "progress." Wouldn't it be possible to build by including the culture of people who are native to the island, preserving their places, and recognizing their heritage ?

@@gabrielferrer2400 China. At least China people can walk in the streets 2am in the morning and not worry about getting robbed or murdered. American propaganda is making up all these fake news about China. Go there and see it for yourself. Americans are too brain washed by the propaganda medias. America is in steady decline over the last 40 years, while China is progressing dramatically and will definitely surpass U.S. in every aspects. Another place I love is Singapore. It's by far the safest, most modern, most educated and advanced society. I love Japan, but it is also in decline in recent years. It's under America control, so it cannot grow economically at Japan's own will, where China has its own destination firmly in its own hands. Despite all the fake news about CCP, I think it did a great job pulling so many millions of people out of poverty. You should seek out non-bias alternative news source and learn more about China and other advance countries and societies. U.S. is unfortunately dying.
@@gabrielferrer2400 Also western colonialism is all about robbing resources from these colonies, especially places like Africa where west stole natural resources and did human trafficking throughout the history. China is helping Africa to build railroads, hospitals, schools, and infrastructures in exchange for their natural resources. It's win-win with China, but it's west win and all others lose with the west.
@@cryptoinside8814 I think it is better for the Philippines to remain independent but it has to create policies like 'Socialism with Filipino characteristics' or learn from the Vietnamese socialist experiment in order to lift a lot of people out of poverty.

You are right on the money. In the last few years, Puerto Rico has accelerated the pace of becoming like Hawaii. For many Puerto Ricans, they are already living like many native Hawaiians. I spent time on the Big Island and saw exactly what this documentary shows. I am saddened by what is happening and amazed by the Hawaiian resiliency that despite working 2 to 3 jobs, they are happy people, family-oriented, kind, friendly, proud, and resourceful. Furthermore, I saw a lot of commonalities between the Hawaiian and Puerto Rican cultures/nations. For years, I have mentioned this to many in PR, only to be laughed at and ignored. It's remarkable how the US got away with this. I see so many similarities between Hawaii and Puerto Rico, and I am saddened to see history repeating itself.
This is everywhere not just Hawaii. My home in seattle was 350k five years ago. Now it’s 700k

@@sessionsinparadise7357 architecture for the sake of architecture or corporate profits, especially when it replaces the worlds beautiful but shrinking natural spaces- and especially if it displaces native/indigenous populations- is abhorrent and i will add inhumane. as the climate changes and wealth disparity grows worse and worse architecture must be centered around preserving natural landscapes and wildlife, with the needs of indigenous/native people and climate placed before massive profits. which imo requires more skills and creativity and ingenuity.
I barely found out who my family is on my dads side about a year ago. Native Hawaiian decent. My grandfather who I got to meet last year before he passed had to move to the mainland because living in Hawaii had proven too difficult for him. My only paternal uncle still lives there but works all the time and doesn’t get to enjoy the beach or much of what the islands offer. My grandfather who had been a successful Hawaiian musician didn’t have all too much to show for all the years of dedication. Especially because he didn’t get to stay in his beloved Hawaii. But displacement among locals is happening everywhere.
I understand more now than ever. Thank you for this! Prayers for Lahaina, Maui....
Beauty from Ashes: I close my eyes, and I see the beauty of life springing from the ashes that cover this island and her children. I see her spirit strong and pure bring renewal of life, and her children rise above the despair that has tried to encapsulate them. I see loved ones lost reborn through the life force of this land. I see their spirit forever living in every form of life renewed and bringing forth life forever. I see powerful healing forces mending broken hearts, comforting suffering souls, and gently whispering words of encouragement. May the sun shine upon this island and her children. May it provide nourishment to bodies, minds, and souls. May the moon illuminate their way in their darkest hours, and may every star sparkle with pure brightness for every soul that has been taken. Let every vibrant color cover this land as a reminder of the beauty that comes from ashes. Kimberly D. Forrest
Don’t let them take your land for any reason
The reason for the overthrow (at least on the business owner side) was because sugar cane exported to the US was being taxed as another country, thus reducing profit. Hawai’i plantation owners lost business to Mexico as they would price roughly the same, but with much less transportation costs. The unification to the US eliminated this international import tax. The collaboration of private business and government is a very dangerous thing, as we’re seeing today with modern warfare
Humanity should always take priority over profit, especially if you're already making profit. We need a new paradigm for the world.
It would probably help if the Hawaiian people actually were given the profits from the use of their lands like the university of Hawaii, who rents out Hawaiian owned lands for profit yet none of that profit is given to the community that owns the land
As a Native Hawaiian who got priced out I can say we will never get any land back. There is to much invested from all over into Hawaii. The best we can hope for is reparations or something monetary and even that is an almost impossible uphill battle.
Could try taking the land back since u seem to think you are entitled to it. Good luck haolie.
