This year, 2004, marks the 111th anniversary of the United States' breach of international law in our homeland. On January 16 and 17 we will come together to assess the events that occurred on January 16 and 17, 1893, and what has happened as a result. As we reflect on these historic hewa, let us stand together as one to discuss possible remedies. Let us seek cooperation among organizations that will bring about one agenda for one Hawai`i, in respect for our Queen and our ancestors who signed the Ku`e Petition.

Join us at `Iolani Palace grounds on January 16 and 17 for discussion, deliberation, music and an appraisal of where we are today, and where we want to go.
