Celebration Honors Hawaiian Independence Day July 31st

L Hoihoi Ea is a celebration of Hawaiian Independence and sovereignty. The L Hoihoi Ea event will be held on Sunday July 31st, 2011 at Thomas Square from 12:00pm-5:00pm. Activities include: Live Music, Kids Activities, Discussion of Hawaiian Issues, Demonstrations, Healthy Food Booth, Hawaiian Health Information and More. There is also FREE parking at the McKinley High School parking lot, across the street from Thomas Square. L Hoihoi Ea has its origins in the Hawaiian Kingdom. Kamehameha III, Kauikeaouli, announced Hawaiis restored sovereignty after a short British occupation in 1843 declaring Ua Mau Ke Ea O Ka ina I Ka Pono.- The sovereignty of our nation is perpetuated through justice. This date, July 31st, 1843, became a Hawaiian national holiday. L Hoihoi Ea was celebrated in the Kingdom of Hawaii until 1893 when the Monarchy was illegally overthrown and subsequently occupied by a select group of American businessmen. Groups maintain that occupation still continues to this day Today L Hoihoi Ea is observed so that Hawaiian sovereignty does not continue to go un-recognized. It is an opportunity for all members of our community, Hawaiians and non-Hawaiians alike, to come together and learn more about Hawaiis history and the issues that continue to affect us all.
