As you all know this year is the 200th anniversary of the meeting between Kamehameha and the Kauai chief, Kaumuali`i, at Honolulu Harbor. I had planned a commemorative event for late July, but due to a lack of funds and few volunteers, I have had to change plans. Instead we are planning a gathering at the King Kamehameha statue on Saturday, July 24, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m:

Lynette Cruz interview with Dr. David Keanu Sai view online regarding complaint in Federal Court in Washington, D.C., against U.S. President Obama et al for violation of an 1893 Executive Agreement between the United States and the Hawaiian Kingdom.
More info here including copy of the complaint.
FYI, Sen. Akaka press release:
Today U.S. Senators Daniel K. Akaka and Daniel K. Inouye announced that they have reached an agreement with Governor Linda Lingle that will secure the Governor’s full support for the Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act. […]
Senators Akaka and Inouye will offer an amendment that will make changes affecting the powers and authorities of the Native Hawaiian governing entity during the period before legislation is enacted to implement agreements reached during three party negotiations.
[…]
The amendment will make changes to Section 9 of the bill. The changes will ensure that during the interim period the Native Hawaiian governing entity will be subject to the state’s regulatory authority affecting public health and safety, until a temporary agreement is reached between the entity and state and approved by the Secretary of the Interior. It will also make clear that the Native Hawaiian governing entity’s officers and employees will not be immune from the state’s criminal laws.

Subject: Reminder: 5 pm at Iolani Palace today
Date: Sun, 4 Jul 2010 08:05:21 -1000
Reminder:
5 pm at Iolani Palace today to commemorate the proclaiming into existence of the (so-called) Republic of Hawaii, July 4, 1894. Join us. Since we don’t celebrate America’s independence, we continue to call attention to what has happened in Hawaii and that we are, indeed, an independent country of our own. We can celebrate that! We expect some interesting things to happen, separate from the reading/re-enactment/educational part. And bring some refreshment to share! Park in the palace grounds. This is a permit-free event. 🙂

From a press release:
Savant Books and Publications of Honolulu, Hawaii, is pleased to announce the release of Mike Farris’s new Hawaiian thriller, Kanaka Blues.
When her mentor disappears in Hawaii while investigating native Hawaiian sovereignty claims for the U.S. Senate, law professor Erin Hanna goes to the islands to look for him. After his body is found near Molokini island, Erin realizes the only way to find his killer is to recreate his investigation. The police have focused on an outlaw sovereignty leader as the likeliest suspect, but Erin believes he is being set up by the real killers. Banding together with him, she finds herself running for her life across the islands with a direct descendant of Kamehameha the Great.
“Kanaka Blues is more than a murder-mystery,” says Farris, “just as Hawaiian sovereignty is more than merely an academic debate. It’s a flesh and blood struggle by Native Hawaiians to find and hold onto their history, their language, their land, and their identity. Even before President Clinton signed the Apology Resolution in 1993, apologizing for the role of the United States in the overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy a century earlier, sovereignty was a hot-button issue in the islands. While I was writing this, the Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act (also known as the Akaka Bill), which is the model for the novel’s Hasegawa Bill, was working its way through the United States Senate. Kanaka Blues is a great introduction to Hawaii, sovereignty, and the inherently human question of who we really are in this increasingly complex, rapidly-blending world.”
