@prideofgypsies : Regardless of your personal views on TMT, this image reminds us that Aloha, Mahalo and Makawalu should always prevail.⁠ ⁠ As staff and kumu we all have personal views - many haumāna, kumu and allies are on the Mauna or supporting in some way. As an educational nonprofit, we try not to impose anyoneʻs personal views, but rather encourage Mahalo (Respect & Appreciation), Makawalu (ʻEight Eyesʻ - being open to many perspectives) and respectful conversation and action toward positive change and pono. ⁠ ⁠ We send our pule and aloha to ALL on the mauna, including the police officers and those who see things differently. ⁠ ⁠ In fear of sending the wrong message, some of us had reservations about showing too many shots in our video of ʻHawaiian against Hawaiianʻ - those in uniform and those in ʻprotestʻ at Mauna Kea and the Waimanalo Evictions. As 1 of many ways we can practice Makawalu, check out this #Repost from @mahinadahui808:⁠ ⁠ As someone who comes from a law enforcement Ohana, this photo hits home. We know some of those kānaka officers who are up at Pu’u Huluhulu and for the ones we know & spoke to, they don’t really want to be there. It’s hard when you take an oath to serve & protect and then comes duties like this. I saw the tears and uncomfortable demeanor as they stood in formation facing their own people. But, they have families to feed. Mortgages/Rent, etc. Also have relatives in the Lāhui. Even Ohana to some of the kūpuna that were arrested. Such a hard position to be in. And they’re only under orders from the top. So that’s where we need to put our focus on. Governor Ige, you can stop this madness. Obviously you haven’t noticed, kānaka maoli are beautiful people full of Kapu Aloha. We are not the enemy. Stop the Madness Now. ⁠ #kukiaimauna🔺
