Malu ‘Aina places Special emphasis on the film:
Mauna Kea: Temple Under Siege
Sunday May 08

1PM


http://www.honolulumuseum.org/events/films/15670-mauna_kea_temple_under_seige

Directed by Puhipau and Joan Lander

2005. 57 min.

A decade before Mauna Kea was the scene of protests against the development of a 30-meter telescope, Puhipau and Joan Lander turned their cameras on the volcano. For five years, Nā Maka o ka ‘Āina captured on video the seasonal moods of Mauna Kea’s unique 14,000-foot summit environment, the richly varied ecosystems that extend from sea level to alpine zone, the legends and stories that reveal the mountain’s geologic and cultural history, and the political turbulence surrounding efforts to protect the most significant temple in the islands, the mountain itself.

Mauna Kea: Temple Under Siege paints a portrait of a mountain that has become a symbol of the Hawaiian struggle for physical, cultural and political survival. The program explores conflicting forces as they play themselves out in a contemporary island society where cultures collide daily.

Featuring Aka Mahi, Pualani Kanahele, Kealoha Pisciotta, Paul Neves, Dr. Manulani Aluli Meyer, Keawe Vredenburg, Sam Gon III, Julie Leialoha, Kahu o Terangi, Kapono Souza, Clarence Kukauakahi Ching, Debbie Ward and Nelson Ho.

To Make Peace!

Priorities Need to Change!

priorities (640x628)

For most people, peace means water that is not poisoned, the basics of food, housing,
education, medical care,
a job with a living wage in a world free of war and climate disaster.
It’s Time to Heal Our Communities and Our Planet!
It’s Time to Recycle the War Machine for the Common Good!

        No More Hate!  Live Aloha!

  1. Mourn all victims of violence. 2. Reject war as a solution. 3. Defend civil liberties.
    4. Oppose all discrimination, anti-Islamic, anti-Semitic, anti-Hawaiian, etc.

10 AM Pule at Ahu on Saddle Rd and

Mauna Kea Access Rd.

11 AM – Noon sign/banner holding at

Pohakuloa Main gate

      January 2016 marks 40 years since the historic action of 9 people who went to the Island of Kaho’olawe to stop the bombing there. It sparked a movement. Many people followed in the months and years after. Some went to jail. Two — George Helm and Kimo Mitchell, lost their lives, but the bombing of Kaho’olawe was eventually stopped. Kaho’olawe is 28,000 acres. Pohakuloa, located in the center of Hawaii Island, is 133,000 acres, nearly 5 times the size of Kaho’olawe. Millions of rounds are fired on Pohakuloa annually. It has been going on more than 50 years. It is time to Malama ‘Aina everywhere. It is time stop the bombing and desecration of Pohakuloa.

  We in Hawaii are part of a larger “Moana Nui” movement to demilitarize the entire Pacific. Pacific Island and Pacific Rim communities are currently actively mobilizing thousands of citizens–in Okinawa, Korea, Guam etc–against U.S. military bases.

Please come in a spirit of Kapu Aloha for the ‘aina and all people we encounter, including those who may disagree with us. Mahalo.

Protect Pohakuloa!  Stop

the Bombing!

Aloha Bob,

I am so excited to invite you to the 2016 International Food Justice Summit that will be in Hilo, Hawai`i THIS FRIDAY!  HAPA has partnered with the Pesticide Action Network (PAN) North America to host, “Challenging the Global Impacts of the Agrochemical Industry: An International Food Justice Summit,” January 15-20, 2016, in locations throughout Hawai`i.

Advocates from around the world and Hawai`i will travel across the islands to weave together a story of how our local struggles for protections from pesticides and to limit corporate influence on government are connected — and to explore how we can grow (together) towards restoring a fairer and more sustainable food system.

The event in Hilo is this Friday, January 15th, from 6PM – 8PM at the University of Hawai`i, Hilo (in University Classroom Building (UCB) 100).  This is a FREE event, and HAPA is giving away free T-shirts to the first 20 people to arrive and sign-in. (Seating is unreserved, no tickets are needed.)  

You can learn more and RSVP on the Facebook event page. Please join me to hear these inspiring local and global advocates. I hope to see you there!
