    When Native Hawaiians welcomed Captain Cook and his crew, they began a journey that would lead to the crumbling of Hawaiian culture. After Captain Cook, missionaries continued to travel to Hawaii to, in their opinion, help the Hawaiian people. Native Hawaiians were viewed as savages and were seemingly given the best assistance from the missionaries. However, the help that the Hawaiians received led to them being demoralized and hurt psychologically and physiologically. In order to succeed, underdogs

    integrally connected to the impact of tourism on Native Hawaiians. I am pastor of a small rural church on the island of Kauai. I am very close to those who work in the tourism industry, in particular the Hawaiians who struggle day in and day out with the unescapable reality of a dominant and greed driven industry. I have counseled the prostitute, the desk clerk, the made and the bartender. I have been involved in hundreds of reburials of ancient Hawaiian grave sites because of a new resort development

    Bill also known as Native Hawaiian Government Reorganization Act, it is going to help the Hawaiians organize a new government. I strongly disagree with this Akaka Bill because it is racist. It also has land issues by not saying anything in it about land. The bill doesn’t also talk about reorganizing a Hawaiian government.
