Access to AINA is the NAHA STONE of our time…. Residential, Agricultural, pastoral & customary spiritual cultural gathering access. We need change, we need access, and we need it now…. So much of our people are dying on the waitlist. Our people are moving away in search of AINA out of state because we’re being priced out of our own ancestral homelands. Stolen lands... let’s be honest l!! My grandmother pure Hawaiian passed away on the DHHL waitlist. My mother is still waiting on the DHHL waitlist. We’re out of time…. We need access now.You know this to be true @departmentofhawaiianhomelands ✈️ Drone footage by @808chuckyboy by @rustyboarcom

Got to chop it up with Braddah @_kauhuhu_ today. This Hawaiian is very knowledgeable of having a deep relationship with mauka and makai, Strong family and community bonds, respect for ancestors, spirituality, and cultural knowledge.Through his stories he shares on his instagram, Braddah is a prime example of reciprocal responsibility, giving back as much as one receives for the future. Keep banging Hawaiian. 🔨🏆💯 by @rustyboarcom

I’m reminded progress in this game isn’t linear! At my age its about adaptability, I find myself having to modify my game around limitations. A bad knee changes the guard I play. A shoulder injury changes how I grip or position for sweeps. I need to evolve instead of trying to recreate my younger jiu-jitsu self. by @rustyboarcom

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY Mother’s Day feels especially hard this year because the man who stood beside my mom through every chapter of life, my father, her lifelong partner in crime, 🤣 is no longer here. Their love, laughter, routines, and shared memories filled every moment together, and now there is an emptiness that can never truly be replaced. More than ever, this day is about making every moment count, showing her she is deeply loved, and making sure she knows she is not alone. It’s about checking on her, sitting with her through the quiet moments, sharing stories that keep my father’s spirit alive, and reminding her that the love they built still surrounds our family every day.Seeing the pictures posted up around the house with little messages beside them reminds me just how special their love truly was. Every photo captures a memory, a laugh, a journey, or a quiet moment they shared together as lifelong partners in crime. Even though my father is gone, the love they created still fills the house and lives on through those memories. Today, pictures become more than decorations, they are reminders of a beautiful bond, of a life they built together, and of the strength my mom carries every day while learning to live with such a deep loss. You are truly a warrior mom!! One tough cookie!! Trust me! You’ll see him again. 🙏 love you mom! by @rustyboarcom

🔝 HAWAIIANS ON TOP 🔝Today, this moment, I’m proud to be Hawaiian, proud of my wife , proud enough to say it loud, at the top of my lungs, to stand tall, and to carry my culture with honor wherever I go. Being Hawaiian is not something I hide or stay quiet about , it is my strength, I refuse to shrink myself. I will say “I am Hawaiian” “ Hawaiians on top” at the top of my lungs because plain and simple I’m proud of who I am, where I come from, and everything my people continue to overcome and achieve. As a Native Hawaiian, seeing my wife earning a law degree through the prestigious trial advocacy program at Syracuse University College of Law is more than a personal achievement, it is a victory carried on the shoulders of generations. Traveling thousands of miles away from Hawaiʻi into unfamiliar states and countries demanded courage, sacrifice, and unwavering faith in where you come from. In spaces where Hawaiians are rarely seen and often underrepresented, standing as the only Hawaiian in the program means carrying the voice, strength, and dignity of your people into every courtroom, classroom, and conversation. You represent not only yourself, but your ʻohana, your lāhui, and the ancestors who endured so future generations could rise beyond limitations placed before them. Success & achievemnt in these spaces proves that Hawaiian excellence belongs everywhere in the world, not only in Hawaiʻi, but on every stage where leadership, intelligence, and resilience are needed. by @rustyboarcom

DAWNELLE FINALLY DID IT….. Through three and a half grueling years at Syracuse University College of Law, I faced struggles that tested every part of my strength, financial hardship, sleepless nights, overwhelming pressure, and the heartbreaking pain of death in my family, both my fathers passed away. There were moments when the weight of grief, sorrow and uncertainty made it seem impossible to continue, when making ends meet felt like its own full-time battle. Yet even through the darkest days, I refused to give up. I looked up to my Heavenly Father and prayed and prayed and prayed. It was in those prayerful moments that I was reminded to carry the memories of my loved ones with me as motivation, turning pain into perseverance and setbacks into determination. Every late night studying, every sacrifice, and every obstacle became part of a journey defined not by defeat, but by resilience. After years of struggle and unwavering persistence, I finally graduated with a law degree, proving that no hardship is stronger than the will to keep going and never surrendering your dreams. by @rustyboarcom
