The US banned Hawaiian language, overthrew our country, stole our land, destroyed our universal healthcare, & illegally occupies Hawaii to this day. My mother's hands were broken for speaking Hawaiian in school. The US is not a beacon, but the destroyer of democracy. #election

“We are not American. We will die as Hawaiians We willnever be Americans... They took our land. They imprisoned our queen. They banned our language. They forcibly made us a colony of the United States” --Haunani Kay Trask

Hawaii is a Disneyland-like resort built over our indigenous communities & ancestor's graves, made to do bastardizations of sacred dances, in 'sexy feather headresses' & entertain the rich tourists for starvation wages, 12 hrs a day 7 days a week, drinking jet fuel poisoned water

The illegal US occupation of Hawaii results in mass sexual exploitation - Hawaii has one of the highest rates of missing persons, most commonly a 15- year-old Native Hawaiian girl

Since US invaded our sovereign country, Hawaii - tops the US in police killings, disproportionately Pacific Islander - Is by far #1 most economically unequal 'state’ in the US. Worse than LA, NY, and DC by far. - Leads the US in the school-to-prison pipeline - #1 in rounding up children, especially Native Hawaiians. Part of the continued US attempt to destroy us indigenous people and lifeways. - The US banned our Hawaiian language, nearly extinguishing it. Less than 100 kids spoke it in the 80's. Kids are STILL punished for speaking Hawaiian today. My mother's hands were shattered for speaking Hawaiian in school. - Native Hawaiians / Pl have the HIGHEST rate of incarceration in the US (4x whites), and the lowest healthy life expectancy. . - Our Native Hawaiian children are also targeted by the US for child removal to prevent parents from passing Hawaiian language, history, and lifeways down to the next generation. CPS is a tool for cultural genocide.

The richest men on Earth buy up luxury estate in Hawaii while most Hawaiians don't "own" a single acre of our home. The US military poisons our water as Mark Zuckerberg OWNS a RESERVOIR, kicks us off 1,200 acres of Kaua'i.

JeffBezos boughta new mansionon Maui after spending weeks 'donating to local charities' The Richest men on Earth own most of Hawaii while most of us don't ‘own' a single acre of our US-illegally occupied home, that hasn't yet been bombed into a toxic waste dump by the US military. Mark Zuckerberg sports a 1300 acre ranch and bought *a fresh water reservoir* as we drink PFOS-filled cancer water - or buy bottled at $6 a gallon.

US-occupied Hawaii is living sardine-packed 20-to-an-apartment next to methlabs, paying $3k / month, getting raped by Americans in tacky hotels, especially US soldiers. And then be arrested for speaking your own language, dying in prison, or of diabetes at age 39.

$Bench warrant issued for Hawaii professor \ after he refuses to speak English to judge...$

cowgrl & @oodreym This little girls teacher told her not to speak Hawaiian or she’ll be punished. This is still happening in 2022. I’m infuriated.

Many Americans think that Hawai'ians lived in huts prior to colonization. The US actually de-industrialized Hawai'i. Before 1898, Hawai'i already had mass transit, railroads. The city of Honolulu was lit by nationalized, renewable hydropower before the White House had electricity

Starting of the Machinery. | Everything Works Well.We aro glad to be able at jnform our readers that the lighting | of Honolulu by electricity is almost un fait accompli.

Images of Hawaii with trains, trolleys, cities, electric lights before US intervention.

Prior to the US coup, Hawaii had the world's highest - o - - - literacy rate (98%), Universal Healthcare, electric lights before the white house, mass affordable transit, industrialization, virtually no homelessness, full racial equality. Post-coup, all these statistics reversed. Faced with their failed preconceptions about Hawai'i, the Europeans exclaimed: "This island is ahead in literacy, and the enlightened countries of Europe are behind it!"

54% of Americans can't read above a 6th grade level TODAY, teachers quit in droves, w/ trillions in student debt which graduates can't pay. A stark contrast to Hawaii's universal free quality education. We had the world's highest literacy rate (98%).

In 1841 Kamehameha Il merged schools and officially created the first public school system in Hawai' which primarily taught in the Hawailan language, although most Hawaiians were bi- o tri- lingual. Hawafi became the first nation to make educafion required for children between the ages of six and fifteen. Europe & the United States only allowed quality education for the upper classes and aristocracy.

"54% of American adults between the ages of 16-74 read below a 6th grade level. So that means we have an epidemic of illiteracy," professor Brittney Cooper reacts to book banning. "If you make people ignorant, then it becomes much easier to control them."

Kalakaua, one of our leaders, had invented a sub-aquatic vehicle when Jules Verne was still dreaming up 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea. Hawai'i was a living Wakanda - an indigenous future: more technologically, economically, and socio-politically advanced than any Western Nation

The sovereign country of Hawaii had Black citizens before the US Civil War. In fact, US slaves that stepped onto Hawaiian soil were considered free. Chinese were full citizens in Hawaii as US chained them up to build railroads & West Coast, w/terrible racism, lynching of Asians.

P Anthony D. Allen, known to Hawaiians by the name Alani was born into slavery in New York in1774 - Allen fled slavery at age 24 for a life at sea. He eventually purchased his freedom and settled in Hawai‘i In Waikiki, Allen became a successful businessman Among other contributions, he started the first bowling alley Hawaii, built the first carriage road up Manoa Valley, built a school, and ran the first hospital for American seamen in Honolulu.

An example of actual equality, democracy, existing socialism without racial hatred, greater technological advancement in a POC nation - it put the US, the West, and Europe to shame, blew their 'White Man's Burden' out of the water -- which was why they illegally crushed Hawaii.

Asian, particularly Chinese, were a threat to the haole oligarchy because of the hui system whereby they avoided haole banks and businesses. Hui were basically coops. Chinese specifically also married into Hawaiian families hence names like Akana, Akau, etc

USS Boston landing in Hawaii to overthrow our sovereign country with the world's highest literacy rate, universal healthcare, advanced industry, electricity predating the US White House, and racial/leconomic equality. Shortly thereafter, we were converted into an oligarch-run '‘banana republic’ for wealthy white capitalists.

Hawaii's coup - backed by US gunboat diplomacy - to smash a Non-White country's building of an actual anti-racist, socialist, thriving country was the blueprint that would later be used on countless Asian, Pacific Islander, Latin American, African, countries across the world.

January 14, 1893 members of the white business community met in a corporate office in Honolulu to plan coup against the elected government of Queen Lilfuokalani. R R L L A R wanted to go but they knew they had the support of the chief US diplomat in Hawaii.

To push the country back into poverty, dis-educate its people, 'obliterate the history', de-develop its infrastructure, and plunder resources and cheap labor. (Homeless tent city is where I worked as social worker/STEM teacher for impoverished Hawaiians / AAPI at-risk youth)

According to a study by the Missouri Economic Research and Information Center in 2019, Hawaii has the highest cost of living in the nation with an index of 191.8. The national average index was set at 100 and Hawaii absolutely crushed it with the closest 2nd being the District of Columbia at an index of 159. may 23, 2020

A thread on my game Neofeud about my life as an impoverished Hawaiian, social worker and STEM teacher for other poor/homeless, living in slums beneath billionaire mansions. My experiences refracted through the lens of satirical cyberpunk. https://wandering.shop/@silverspookgames/113092063894254681

Attached: 1 image Neofeud is anti-capitalist, anti-racist & anti-imperialist cyberpunk. I'm a Native Hawaiian who made this game while working 40+ hrs in social services / teaching in ghettos, while homeless. Neofeud is my life, in art.
