this month i donated to the molokai heritage trust which is trying to reacquire land (from colonizers [my term entirely]) on molokaʻi to return to native hawaiians.
living in hawaii has been really educational! i didn't know basically anything about native hawaiians, their culture, or their history before coming here. i still don't know very much (tho i have read two books about hawaiian history), but of what i do know, i feel like mainstream americans can learn a lot from.
