Next January, Ho'omalu ma Kualoa will sponsor the "Hawaiian Sovereignty Summit." Again gathering in ho'omalu, we will discuss - and work to achieve agreement -- on the issues affecting a self-determination process and self-government. Although the details regarding time and plaee have not yet been eonfirmed, the topics of authority, timing and funding ~ whether and when to hold a convention, how to select delegates and securing the necessary funding to support the chosen process ~ will be our major focus.

The centennial of annexation was a powerful reminder of the deep harm that results when strong political interests ignore and overwhelm the will of the people. Those forces are still trying to manipulate the Hawaiian future. We must recognize that our strength is in unity, in coming together to find and give voice to our own vision as Native Hawaiians - and fulfill the prophesy: E iho ana o luna E pi'i ana o lalo E hui ana nā moku E kū ana ka paia'.
