Aloha Kakou,
PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ THIS EMAIL, THIS IS IMPORTANT NEWS
REGARDING THE RECENT RULING AGAINST KAMEHAMEHA SCHOOLS.
To all my family and friends, please show your continued support for
the Hawaiian culture by attending this protest AND/OR forwarding this
email to anyone you know that is a supporter. The following email is

aloha mai kakou -
I'm asking you, your family, your friends, and all supporters of the
Hawaiian culture to be there for this, for the support of Kamehameha
schools, Hawaiian homesteads, Ali`i lands and endless amount of wrong
doings that we have endured. At this point it's not political, it's
making yet another stand to what's "Right is Right" and what's "Wrong
is Wrong!!"
100 years ago the over throw of the monarchy - and now this! what's
next?
please be there to support me, your kumu, all people Hawaiian, and all
lovers of Hawaiian things. If you hula, you get something from what
our ancestors left us - this is one way to reciprocate and ho`omana
our kupuna and our keiki.

MARCH/RALLY DETAILS:
Ku I Ka Pono March - San Francisco
AUGUST 20, 2005 - NOON - DOWNTOWN SAN FRANCISCO
WHERE: We will START AT THE NINTH CIRCUIT COURT BUILDING at 95-7th
St. (cross street is Mission) in San Francisco.
The "Civic Center" station for BART and Muni will get you to Market
and 7th -- walk one block south toward Mission. If you're driving,
there should be ample parking in the city lots on Mission and 5th St.
We will march FROM the Ninth Circuit and END AT U.N. PLAZA , corner of
8th and Market. This venue can accommodate a much larger crowd, and
because of its location in the heart of San Francisco, we are more
likely to garner attention.
WHAT: Protest march and rally in support of Kamehameha schools and all
things Hawaiian. - Hula/Speeches/Pule - Organized mele/oli/hula (in
the next blog all of the mele). This is not a show/performance - the
mele/oli/hula are meant for unification, please don't come with your
purple/pink pa`u and glitter kupe`e ;-)
WHAT TO WEAR: Red/Black clothing (kihei/pareo/shirt etc..), bring
banners/signs (NO racist comments please), bamboo or stick with
red/black ribbon to wave.
WHAT TO BRING: Pahu Hula (for Au`a `Ia), water
Upcoming Meeting: Wednesday - August 17th, 7-9pm at APOP Hawaiian
Cultural Center, 423 Baden, So. San Francisco www.apop.net -
to discuss purpose/goals, review mele/oli, set protocols
Itinerary (tentative): Meet at noon, 12:30 start: Pule (all forms from
all denominations welcome) - approx 1pm start march (march oli's) -
arrive at Plaza - Speeches, Oli, Hula.
Gentle but important reminder: I want to encourage everyone in
advance to remember that we want to draw attention for a pono march
and rally. Please keep signage to slogans such as "Education for
Hawaiians," "Justice for Hawaiians," "Hawaiian Unity," and the like.
We will have flyers from the Kamehameha Schools with educational
information about the admissions policy to hand out to media and
interested passersby. Let's make sure the judiciary (many of whom
likely live in the Bay Area) have a completely positive impression of
us when the full panel convenes to reconsider Doe vs. Kamehameha.
I've attached the standard mele/oli/hula from past protests - please
by all means, if you'd like to take on some kuleana (responsibility)
please do so...main thing is please spread the word to everybody to be
there - please forward emails to me so i can compile list:

Uncles and Aunties who are a part of this list...when we have a list
put together can you please review and make additions etc....
There will be other meetings outside of ours on aug 17, we are trying
to find different piko around Kaleponi (Hayward, walnut creek, sac
etc...) please let me know if you are going to have a meeting - I'll
