#HAWAI IAN PATRIOTS

Ka'omakaokala Aki stood in front of the KO'e Petition display on 'lolani Palace grounds in September. The display represents more than 39,000 Hawaiian nationals who protested the annexation of Hawaii to the United States. Aki is one of four University of Hawaii students who helped call attention to the words and lives of Hawaiian patriots George Helm, Alice Kamokila Campbell, James Kaulia and Piilani. The #HawaiianPatriots Project was a collaboration between Dr. Noelani Goodyear-Ka'opua, her students at UH-Manoa and OHA's Digital Media program. - Photo: Alice Malepeai Silbanuz
