Time-date-place set for working group Oahu meeting
Aloha everyone,
The next Ka Lahui Hawaii Working Group – Oahu meeting is set for Saturday, November 7 at 1:00pm at Olelo, 1122 Mapunapuna. Kawika Nahoopii has graciously secured the facility for us that has free parking. However, the meeting start time must begin at 1:00pm because the facility doesn’t open until 12:00 noon. I know we originally planned for a 9:00am start time, but I hope this will fit into everyone’s schedule. I believe we can finish the meeting at 5:00pm. We had planned for a potluck because the meeting was originally scheduled for all day, but we should be able to complete the meeting in 4 hours. Please feel free to bring a snack to share with everyone. If you have any questions, you can reach me at lehua002@hawaii.rr.com or on my cell at 497-7732.

Noho Hewa on screen tonight
The award-winning film will be screened again tonight.
Time: October 8, 2009 from 7pm to 9pm
Location: Windward Community College
Organized By: Koolaupoko Hawaiian Civic Club & Windward Community
College Hawaiian Studies Program
Event Description:
Winner of the Best Documentary Award at the Hawaii International Film
Festival (2008), will be showing at Windward Community College on
October 8th, at 7PM at the Paliku Theater. This screening is FREE to
all and is being sponsored by the Koolaupoko Hawaiian Civic Club and
Windward Community College Hawaiian Studies Program.
Recently completed and now available on DVD, the film is 10 minutes
longer than the unfinished version seen by standing room only crowds
last winter in Hawai’i and it has just finished a tour of Aotearoa
(New Zealand).
“Noho Hewa” ia about the most challenging issues facing Hawaiians
today: Akaka Bill vs. Independence, desecration of Hawaiian Burials
and sacred sites, GMO’S, militarism, poverty and U.S. economy and
culture used to ethnically cleanse Hawai’i of the Kanaka Oiwi. Filmed
over the course of 6 years, “Noho Hewa” is unambiguous, raw, and
emotional… it is the truth about Hawai’i.
