​​Aunty Pualani Kanakaʻole Kanahele offers Oli Kūhohonu Kāpilipili Hoʻohihia e pili ana i ka Moku ʻo Kahoʻolawe, an oli from Uncle Harry Kunihi Mitchell passed down to him from his kupuna. This is an excerpt from Kahoʻolawe Aloha ʻĀina (1992) directed by Nā Maka o ka ʻĀina and produced by Protect Kahoʻolawe ʻOhana tracing the history of Kahoʻolawe and the island’s reclamation. Link in bio. In celebration of 50 years of aloha ʻāina on Kahoʻolawe and the Protect Kahoʻolawe ʻOhana, the Hoʻomau Nā Maka o ka ʻĀina team has digitized and made searchable the logs and transcripts from the Kahoʻolawe Aloha ʻĀina collection (1987-1991). This vital resource includes full interviews with beloved kūpuna such as Uncle Harry Kunihi Mitchell, Nālani Kanakaʻole, Noa Emmett Auwae Aluli, Davianna Pōmaikaʻi McGregor, Leslie Kuloloio and documentation of various landings and makahiki ceremonies on the island. This year we will also begin digitizing a portion of these Kahoʻolawe tapes and organizing a community screening alongside the exhibition I Ola Kanaloa: 50 Years of Aloha ʻĀina, to take place later this year. LAʻA, MAʻA, PAʻA (SANCTIFY, SUSTAIN, SOLIDIFY) Wehewehe mai nei kahi ao, Kū mai nā waʻa kaulua, Pūē ke kanaka mai ka waʻa mai, Kūkulu ka iwi o ka ʻāina ʻAilana Kohemalamalama, Hoʻohiki kēia moku iā Kanaloa, Akua o ka moana ili, moana uli Ke holo nei me ke au kāhili ʻOhaehae mai ka makani ʻAlalā keiki pua aliʻi, Ka piko hole pelu o Kanaloa Kahua pae ʻili kīhonua ʻāhua Puehu ka lepo o Moaʻula Puʻuhonua moʻokahuna kilo paehonua Pōhaku ahu ʻAikūpele kāpili o Keaweiki Kau lī lua ka makani ke hae nei Kawele hele nei ʻo Hineliʻi Nāpoʻo ka lā i Kahikimoe Nue mai ke ao Lanikau Kapu mai ka honua, kūpaʻa loa Pau ka luhi ʻana o ka moana Manaʻo hālana pū i ke akua He aloha pili kaʻu no kēia ʻāina Aloha nō ka mana o nā kūpuna. Aloha nō ka mana o nā kūpuna.

Uncle Harry Kunihi Mitchell gave the ʻOhana the term “Kua” to identify those who demonstrate the willingness to bend their back and tirelessly toil in the efforts to realize Aloha ʻĀina. The Kua of the Protect Kahoʻolawe ʻOhana are those who have given years of their lives to the ʻOhana’s mission of aloha ʻāina, being trained in reciting the moʻolelo of the island and the ʻOhana, water safety, UXO safety, how to run our Hakioawa base camp, as well as how to guide huakaʻi participants in the day to day work on Kohemālamalama. Kua are the leaders who ensure safe and meaningful access to Kanaloa. One of our Kua and Moʻolono, Kaipu Keala, talks us through the moʻolelo of the term and some of the other leadership roles taken on by the Kua in our ʻOhana, who compose the greater kuamoʻo and anchor the moʻokūʻauhau of our growing and enduring ʻOhana. #PKO50 #LaaMaaPaa #50YearsofAlohaAina #NotPauYet
