Letters on Leis and Lies


The Simon magazine published my letter (scroll down) suggesting some historical corrections to an article on Hawaii's history, which also draws parallels between Hawaii and Iraq. The magazine also published Ken Conkin's letter, in which he once again spreads the misinformation that "A few radicals want to make all Hawai'i an independent nation where only ethnic Hawaiians would have full voting and property rights." Actually, I can't say there aren't a few people out there who might feel that way, but he states it in what can only be an intentionally misleading manner to suggest that all who support independence hold this view, when the truth is that the vast majority of independence advocates favor political and property rights based on nationality, as in citizenship, not on race or ethnicity. A couple other letters on the subject there as well. (Note, this is actually from April but was just brought to my attention.)
