Having studied hula for over 20 years, this video was both informative and entertaining. Love Kumu Mark’s “take no prisoners” attitude. Hula is history, story telling and an art form which needs to always evolve and adapt. One can respect what came before and represent what is happening with the Hawaiian people today. Aloha from Vancouver Island, Canada.❤

I see my good brudda Dukie Kuahulu (white/gray beard) making a model canoe. The National Geographic Magazine had a nice photo of Dukie on the opening page of their Hokulea article. Dukie worked for Harry Robello’s Aloha Beach Services as a canoe captain and surfing instructor at the Sheraton Waikiki beach. He was a charter member and a head coach for The Waikiki Beachboys Canoe Club. Dukie was one of the last true Hawaiian beachboys from a bygone era; he could surf, swim, fish, skin dive, paddle, steer and rig a canoe, sing and play ukulele and guitar, and suck ‘um up with the best of them. He told me he worked in the Hawaiian Pavilion at the 1964 World’s Fair in New York City as canoe steersman, high diver and weaving coconut palm frond hats. He had a winning personality and an infectious laugh. Everyone loved and respected Dukie. RIP Brudda Dukie…

Netflix needs to do a series based on Kumu Mark Ho'omalu and the history of the AHA. His story needs to be told in a full docu series!🤙❤💯

Aloha Kumu Mark Keali'i Ho'omalu. I'm a huge fan of yours, and wanted to say that you are very much a pioneer of Hula, your interpretation, and all of what you feel and hear, the movements, tell a very vivid story, your style of the way you make "Sally" Sing is amazing! I totally agree that as Kanaka in this time and place, we need to look forward and not back, you explained that well and if we as a people stay stuck in time, we will never allow ourselves to move forward. I'm the owner and president of KAIWI Entertainment, and would love to create, and collaborate with you, a new type of show outside of Merrie monarch, instead of competition, purely entertainment. I think that there are many people here in Hawai'i and else where around the world who would appreciate this type of Hula event annually. This would probably piss some kumu off, but bumbye pau, uplift and move forward... Lmk, Aloha piha, Wayne Kaiwi, KAIWI Entertainment LLC. A Kanaka Oiwi Enterprise.

I danced at a taxi dance in Honaunau Hawaii in 1971! They brought in "hapa" ladies from Hilo along with a sprinkle of Hippy girls from the coffee shacks of the area. Cost $1 a dance but was a long dance to Filipino music. " My last Taxi Dance." Life is good in Hawaii!

I would love to see more from Ho'Onani. I think in the future there will be much more knowledge worth sharing from Ho'Onani's life perspective. Such a strong and beautiful mind, heart, soul and talent. Very impressive and mature for any age, but especially from one so young. Props to the parents and Kumu for loving acceptance and guidance. Thank you Pacific Pulse for including The Middle.

The TMT doesn't threaten the water supply. It's designed to be an environmentally friendly, zero waste facility. All waste water is captured in a double-hulled waste container, transported off the mauna via truck and safely disposed of off site. All the pipes are double-hulled. They employ leak detection systems, daily leak inspections and are trained in spill containment and recovery. Modern scopes no longer use hazardous materials, like mercury. The TMT is being constructed in a cold, high altitude alpine desert. Much water gets trapped as ice under the surface. Based on geochemistry, it takes 2,000-5,000 years for summit water to percolate through thousands of feet of rocks and volcanic ash. Volcanic ash is natures best filter due to it's ionizing effect, which breaks down and neutralizes contaminants. The aquifer system contains its own microbiology that digests hydrocarbon contaminants, such as petroleum products. The TMT is being constructed in an area where lava dams also contain or hinder contaminant dispersal. It sits thousands of feet above the aquifer. It doesn't pose a legitimate threat. The protesters are overeacting.

Maybe it isn't harmful to the environment, but there's still the fact that it is desecration of their most sacred land. Plus, every single telescope on the Hawaiian Islands was supposed to be the last one. Additionally, it's built on land zoned as conservation land, no development whatsoever should occur there. They are not overreacting and have every right to be protesting. The fact that they are being arrested directly contradicts the words of the Declaration of Independence, the 1st Amendment, and the very values the United States was built upon.

I cried with pain in my heart and throat the entire time watching this. So sad for our Kupuna to struggle so hard, but very proud of their dedication and sacrifice. Actually I'm very proud and grateful to all who continue to rise up and hold fast to protecting and reclaiming what is rightfully Hawaiian. I also could not help but feel for the law enforcement people who have to maintain their jobs to feed their families, but struggle in their hearts and minds because they believe in the causes their Kupuna are fighting for. Thank you for documenting and sharing.

Absoutely beautiful, very enlightening, extremely moving, simply brilliant! I wept the entire time. I know Greenland is an island in the north Atlantic Ocean and the largest island on earth, but I have never met or seen pictures of its indigenous people. This video opened my eyes and mind to discover that it is an island populated by not only colonizer's descendants, but that there are people who look like me that are the true native people of Greenland. I had no idea. The words from these two poets and storytellers touched me deeply. Thank you for this very enlightening video. Best wishes to you, your families, your crew members, and all who are deep in the struggle to find solutions to our receding shores and loss of homelands.
