more Chamorros need to watch this and come to realize that the upcoming Military Build Up on Guam and the CNMI will have all the negative results just portrayed.

There is no positive with the U.S. presence on any of our islands.

@Lakeside54321 there is a video called ‘the myth of ceded lands’ on hawaiiankingdom(dot)org. it’s very educational

The Philippines is an apparent warning, … do take your independence.
KALEIKOA KA’EO is right “loosing ones identity is far worst than loosing ones land.”

I’m from the Philippines. (many of my people had already lost their sense of heritage.)

america sucks

As much as I want Hawaiian independence, I don’t think a terrorist organization would be a good answer. People that formed similar organizations around the world when they wanted their country’s independece got killed or thrown in jail.

if the established economic state takes a hit then the us will have to suffer, it was never our land to develop in the first place. there is not a simple way for the usa to hand hawaii back to the natives but that should not stop us from trying. the native people of not only Hawaii but also the whole Americas have been taken advantage of it is a sad story that a government, that tries to premote freedom across the world still has people in its heart land who are not free.

fack USA
americans sons of a bitch

Native Hawaiians need to ask themselves how would they govern themselves and the Islands? Would you make a treaty with the US to allow their continued military presence there? It is unlikely the US will ever give up its strategic military in the area. Would they allow for a multicultural nation or would Hawaiians only be sovereign citizens? If so how would you transition all the wealth invested in the land by foreigners? Especially the Japanese, don’t forget to look out for them too.

Sorry man. (By the way I was born and raised maui, and I am native hawaiian too)
But funding is a necessity. Some people yes did live off of the land.

But that was in ancient times, when the land was ahupua’a. That’s all been destroyed. The infrastructure for that kind of subsistence is pretty much gone. Sure some people can go pound some kalo or hunt a pig and cook it in their imu.

But imagine Every resident having to do that on a daily basis to survive. The land isn’t ready to support that.

For those that find this interesting, watch the following videos:

Time for the INDIGENOUS UPRISE!

have u ever been to a reservation?? there some of the nastiest places in america. most of the natives on the mohawk res in northern ny have dirt floor and cant go near the rivers or lakes because the levels of mercurey are to high. in north dakota there are still places natives arnt allowed to go to because their natives. I saw a bumper sticker that said “the only good indian is a dead indian. actually go to a res and see if its a “win win”

exactly. It’s impossible to please so many. After more than a century one would expect the natives would have assimilated by know.
