Nā hōʻike ma North Carolina Peace Action Event i Raleigh, NC,ʻAukake 23, 2014.
Mahalo no ke kono ʻana mai iaʻu, a mahalo iā North Carolina Peace Action, a iā John Heuer aʻu e manaʻo nei he kanaka luhi ʻole a hoʻoikaika i ka maluhia. Hiki iā mākou ke mahalo iā John?
He mea hanohano naʻu ke kuleana e hoʻohanohano i ka 2014 Student Peacemaker, iMatter Youth North Carolina. Ua ukali wau i ka hana a iMatter a puni ka ʻāina i mau makahiki, ua noho wau ma ka ʻaha hoʻokolokolo a lākou i lawe mai ai ma Wakinekona, DC, ua kaʻana like wau i kekahi papa me lākou ma kahi hanana lehulehu, ua hoʻonohonoho wau i kahi pūnaewele. palapala noi me lākou ma RootsAction.org, ua kākau wau e pili ana iā lākou a nānā iā lākou e hōʻeuʻeu i nā mea kākau e like me Jeremy Brecher aʻu e paipai nei e heluhelu. Eia kahi hui e hana nei i nā pono o nā hanauna e hiki mai ana o nā ʻano āpau a alakaʻi ʻia - a alakaʻi maikaʻi ʻia - e nā keiki kanaka. Hiki iā mākou ke hāʻawi iā lākou i ka pāleo?
Akā, e hōʻike ana paha i ka maka pōkole a me ka noʻonoʻo ponoʻī iaʻu iho ma ke ʻano he lālā o kahi ʻano i ulu ʻole e hoʻokele i kahi honua holoʻokoʻa, hauʻoli loa wau i ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana iā iMatter Youth North Carolina no ka mea ʻo kaʻu kaikamahine ponoʻī ʻo Hallie Turner a me ʻO kaʻu keiki hanauna ʻo Travis Turner kahi ʻāpana o ia. Kūpono lākou i nā mahalo he nui.
A ʻo ka hui hoʻolālā iMatter piha, haʻi ʻia wau, ʻo Zack Kingery, Nora White, a me Ari Nicholson ka mea i hōʻike ʻia i kēia pō. E hoʻomaikaʻi hou aku paha lākou.
Lawe wau i ka hōʻaiʻē piha no kā Hallie a me Travis hana, no ka mea ʻoiai ʻaʻole wau i aʻo maoli iā lākou i kekahi mea, ua hana wau, ma mua o ko lākou hānau ʻana, e haʻi i koʻu kaikuahine e hele ʻo ia i kā mākou hui kula kiʻekiʻe, a ua hui ʻo ia me ke kāne i lilo i kaikunāne. Me ka ʻole o ia, ʻaʻohe Hallie a me Travis.
Eia nō naʻe, ʻo koʻu mau mākua ia - ka mea aʻu e manaʻo nei ma ke ʻano like (ʻoiai i kēia hihia hōʻole wau iā ia) e loaʻa ka hōʻaiʻē piha no nā mea āpau aʻu e hana ai - ʻo lākou ka mea i lawe iā Hallie i kāna hōʻuluʻulu mua, ma ka White House e kūʻē nei paipu one one. Ua haʻi ʻia wau ʻaʻole maopopo iā Hallie ka mea e pili ana i ka wā mua a no ke aha i hopu ʻia ai ka poʻe maikaʻi, ma kahi o ka hana hewa ʻana a ka poʻe i kā mākou poʻe aloha a me ka hopu ʻia ʻana o ko mākou honua. Akā i ka pau ʻana o ka hālāwai hoʻeuʻeu ua kūpono ʻo Hallie i ka mānoanoa o ia, ʻaʻole ia e haʻalele a hiki i ka hele ʻana o ka mea hope loa i ka hale paʻahao no ke kaulike, a ua haʻi ʻo ia i ka hanana ka lā nui o kona ola a hiki i kēia manawa, a i ʻole nā huaʻōlelo iā kēlā hopena.
Maliʻa paha, e like me ka mea i ʻike ʻia, he lā nui kēlā, ʻaʻole no Hallie wale nō akā no iMatter Youth North Carolina, a, ʻo wai ka mea ʻike, like paha - e like me ka lā i kiola ʻia ai ʻo Gandhi mai kahi kaʻaahi, a i ʻole ka lā i kamaʻilio ai ʻo Bayard Rustin iā Martin E hāʻawi ana ʻo Luther King Jr. i kāna pū, a i ʻole i ka lā a kahi kumu i hāʻawi aku ai iā Thomas Clarkson e kākau i kahi moʻolelo e pili ana i ka ʻae ʻia o ke kauā - e lilo ia i lā nui no kekahi o mākou.
Ua hilahila wau i nā mea ʻelua ʻoiai, ʻoiai koʻu haʻaheo.
ʻO kekahi o mākou nā mākua e haʻalele i nā keiki e ʻike i ka hana pono a me ka hana politika koʻikoʻi ma o ka ulia pō ʻana ma mua o ke aʻo ʻana iā lākou iā lākou me ka ʻōnaehana a me ka honua holoʻokoʻa, me he mea lā ʻaʻole mākou e manaʻo makemake lākou i nā ola kūpono, me he mea lā manaʻo mākou i nā ola ʻoluʻolu ke kanaka piha. kūpono. Ke noi nei mākou i nā keiki e alakaʻi i ke ala i ke kaiapuni, no ka mea - ke ʻōlelo pū nei mākou i nā mea āpau ma kahi o 30, ua ʻōlelo ka poʻe Bob Dylan ʻaʻole e hilinaʻi a hiki i ka hala ʻana o 30 - ʻaʻole mākou e hana ana, a ke lawe nei nā keiki iā mākou i ka 'aha hoʻokolokolo, a ke ʻae nei kā mākou aupuni i kona mau hoa hana i nā mea luku o ke kaiapuni e lilo i mau hoa kōkua manawaleʻa (hiki iā ʻoe ke noʻonoʻo e hāʻawi manawaleʻa ʻia e hoʻopiʻi ʻia me kahi mea ʻē aʻe e kū nei i ka hoʻopiʻi kānāwai? ʻAʻole, e kali, hoʻopiʻi hoʻi iaʻu!), a me nā mea kōkua manawaleʻa, me ka National Association of Manufacturers, ke hāʻawi nei i nā hui loio e ʻoi aku paha ke kumu kūʻai ma mua o nā kula ʻo Hallie a me Travis, a ke hoʻoholo nei nā ʻaha he kuleana kū hoʻokahi ia o nā hui kanaka ʻole i kapa ʻia nā hui i luku i ka noho ʻana o ka Honua no nā mea āpau, ʻoiai ka ʻike maopopo i ʻōlelo ʻia e pau pū nā hui.
E hana paha kā mākou keiki i kā mākou e ʻōlelo ai a i ʻole mākou? ʻAʻole pū kekahi! E holo lākou i kahi ala ʻē aʻe mai nā mea a mākou i hoʻopā ai. Aia kekahi hoʻokoe, ʻoiaʻiʻo. Hoʻomaʻo iki kekahi o mākou. Akā he hana nui ia e wehe i ka indoctrination moʻomeheu a mākou e ʻōlelo nei i nā huaʻōlelo e like me "hoʻolei i kēia" me he mea lā aia kahi mamao, a i ʻole ka lepili ʻana i ka luku ʻia ʻana o kahi ululāʻau "ulu hoʻokele waiwai," a hopohopo paha i ka mea i kapa ʻia he aila kiʻekiʻe. a pehea mākou e ola ai ke pau ka aila, ʻoiai ua ʻike ʻelima mau manawa i ka mea e hiki ai iā mākou ke puhi palekana a hiki ke noho i kēia pōhaku nani.
Akā ʻokoʻa nā kamaliʻi. ʻO ka pono e pale i ka honua a hoʻohana i ka ikehu maʻemaʻe ʻoiai ʻo ia ka manaʻo o kekahi mau pilikia kūpono ʻole a i ʻole kekahi pilikia pilikino koʻikoʻi, ʻaʻole ia he mea ʻē aʻe a ʻano ʻē paha i kahi keiki ma mua o ka hapalua o nā mea ʻē aʻe a lākou e hōʻike mua ai, e like me ka algebra, hui a ʻauʻau paha, a ʻanakala paha. ʻAʻole lākou i hoʻolilo i kekahi mau makahiki i ka haʻi ʻia ʻana ʻaʻole holo pono ka ikehu hou. ʻAʻole lākou i hoʻomohala i ke ʻano o ka aloha ʻāina i hiki ke ʻae iā mākou e mālama i ka ikehu hou hiki ʻole ke hana ʻoiai mākou e lohe nei e hana ana i nā ʻāina ʻē aʻe. (ʻO ia ka physics Kelemania!)
He mau makahiki ko kā mākou mau alakaʻi ʻōpio i ka indoctrination i loko o kā Martin Luther King Jr. i kapa aku ai he materialistic, militarism, a me ka racism. Pale ka poʻe mākua i ke ala i loko o nā pā hale, no laila hele nā keiki i ke alanui, hoʻonohonoho lākou a hoʻonāukiuki a aʻo hoʻi. A no laila pono lākou, akā kūʻē lākou i kahi ʻōnaehana aʻo a me kahi ʻōnaehana hana a me kahi ʻōnaehana leʻaleʻa e haʻi pinepine iā lākou he mana ʻole lākou, ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻololi koʻikoʻi, a ʻo ka mea nui e hiki iā ʻoe ke koho.
I kēia manawa, e haʻi ana nā mākua i kēlā me kēia i ka mea nui a lākou e hiki ai ke hana, he lawa ʻole ka maikaʻi, akā ʻo ka ʻōlelo ʻana i nā keiki i ʻelemakule ʻole e koho, ua like ia me ka haʻi ʻana iā lākou e hana ʻole. Pono mākou i kahi pākēneka o ko mākou heluna kanaka e hana ana i ka mea kū i ka ʻole o ka mea ʻole, ola a me ka hanu ʻana i ka activism hoʻolaʻa. Pono mākou i ke kūpaʻa nonviolent kūpaʻa, aʻo hou, hoʻohuli i kā mākou kumuwaiwai, boycotts, divestments, ka hana ʻana i nā hana hoʻomau e like me nā hiʻohiʻona no nā poʻe ʻē aʻe, a me ka pale ʻana i kahi hoʻonohonoho kūpaʻa e hoʻokele pono ana iā mākou ma kahi pali. ʻO nā hālāwai i hoʻonohonoho ʻia e iMatter Youth North Carolina ke nānā aku e like me ka neʻe ʻana i ke ala kūpono iaʻu. No laila, mahalo hou iā lākou.
ʻO ka lua o ka mea hilahila iki wau no ka mea maʻamau ʻole ka hōʻea ʻana o kahi hui maluhia i kahi mea hana kaiapuni ke koho ʻana i kekahi e hoʻohanohano, ʻoiai ʻaʻole wau i lohe iki i ka ʻaoʻao. He ʻanakala ko Hallie lāua ʻo Travis e hana nui nei i ka maluhia, akā noho lāua i kahi moʻomeheu kahi i loaʻa ai ka activism i loaʻa kālā a me ka nānā a me ka ʻae nui ʻia, i ka palena palena i hana ʻia e kekahi a ma hope o 5Ks e kūʻē i ka maʻi ʻaʻai umauma a me ke ʻano o ka activism i nele i nā mea kūʻē maoli, ka activism no ke kaiapuni. Akā manaʻo wau aia kekahi pilikia i ka mea aʻu i hana ai a me nā mea a mākou e maʻa mau ai, ʻo ia, me ka hoʻokaʻawale ʻana i ka poʻe ma ke ʻano he poʻe hoʻouluulu maluhia a i ʻole nā mea hana i ke kaiapuni a i ʻole nā mea koho balota media a i ʻole nā mea hakakā anti-racism. I ko mākou ʻike ʻana i kekahi mau makahiki i hala, hoʻohui mākou āpau i 99% o ka lehulehu, akā hoʻokaʻawale ʻia ka poʻe e ʻeleu maoli nei, i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo a me nā manaʻo o ka poʻe.
ʻO ka maluhia a me ke kaiapuni, pono wau e hui pū ʻia i hoʻokahi huaʻōlelo peacen environmentalism, no ka mea ʻaʻole holomua kekahi neʻe ʻana me ka ʻole o kekahi. Makemake ʻo iMatter e ola me he mea lā he mea nui kā mākou e hiki mai ana. ʻAʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke hana i kēlā me ka militarism, me nā kumuwaiwai e pono ai, me ka luku ʻana, me ka makaʻu e ulu nui aʻe me kēlā me kēia lā e hala ana e kīkaha ʻia ai nā mea kaua nukelea. Inā hiki iā ʻoe ke noʻonoʻo pehea e nuke ai i kahi lāhui ʻē aʻe i ke kī ʻana i kāna mau missiles mai ka lewa, ʻoiai ka mea ʻaʻohe mea i ʻike, ʻo ka hopena i ka lewa a me ke aniau e loli nui i kou lāhui ponoʻī pū kekahi. Akā he moemoeā kēlā. I loko o kahi hanana honua maoli, ua hoʻoili ʻia kahi mea kaua nukle ma ke kumu a i ʻole ma ke kuhi hewa, a he nui nā mea hou aʻe e hoʻoili koke ʻia i kēlā me kēia ala. ʻO kēia ka mea i aneane hiki i nā manawa he nui, a ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻaʻole mākou e nānā iā ia e hana hou ia ma mua o ka liʻiliʻi. Manaʻo wau ua ʻike ʻoe i ka mea i hana ʻia ma 50 hikina hema o aneʻi ma Ianuali 24, 1961? Pololei kēlā, hāʻule hoʻohoka ʻole ka pūʻali koa US i ʻelua mau pōkā nuklea a laki loa lākou ʻaʻole i pahu. ʻAʻohe mea e hopohopo ai, wahi a ka heleuma nūhou comedy ʻo John Oliver, ʻo ia ke kumu i loaʻa ai iā mākou ʻelua Carolinas.
Kākoʻo ʻo iMatter i kahi hoʻololi hoʻokele waiwai mai nā wahie fossil i ka ikehu hou a no nā hana kūpaʻa. Inā ʻelua mau kālā trillion wale nō i ka makahiki e hoʻonele ʻia i kahi mea ʻole a luku paha! A heʻoiaʻiʻo aia, ma ka honua holoʻokoʻa, kēlā kālā hiki ʻole ke hoʻolilo ʻia no ka hoʻomākaukau no ke kaua, ʻo ka hapalua o ia mea e ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, ʻekolu hapahā o ia mea e ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa a me kāna mau mea kōkua - a ʻo ka hapa nui o nā mea kaua hope loa o US. No kekahi hapa ona, hiki ke mālama nui ʻia ka wī a me ka maʻi, a pēlā nō ke hoʻololi i ke aniau. Pepehi ka make i ke kaua ma o ka lawe kālā ʻana mai kahi e pono ai. No kahi hapa liʻiliʻi o ka hoʻomākaukau kaua ʻana e lilo ana, hiki ke manuahi ke koleke ma aneʻi a hāʻawi manuahi ʻia ma kekahi mau ʻāpana o ka honua pū kekahi. E noʻonoʻo ehia mau mea hana kaiapuni i hiki iā mākou ke loaʻa inā ʻaʻole ʻaiʻē nā haumāna puka o ke koleke he ʻumi tausani mau kālā ma ke kūʻai ʻana no ka pono kanaka o kahi aʻo! Pehea ʻoe e uku ai i kēlā hoʻi me ka hana ʻole ʻana no ka poʻe luku o ka honua?
ʻO 79% o nā mea kaua ma ka Hikina Waena mai ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, ʻaʻole helu ʻia nā mea o ka pūʻali koa US. ʻO nā mea kaua o US ma nā ʻaoʻao ʻelua ma Libia i ʻekolu mau makahiki i hala a aia ma nā ʻaoʻao ʻelua ma Suria a me Iraq. ʻO ka hana ʻana i nā mea kaua kahi hana kūpono ʻole inā ʻike au i kekahi. Hoʻopau ia i ka hoʻokele waiwai. ʻO nā dālā like i hoʻolilo ʻia i ka ikehu maʻemaʻe a i ʻole nā kūkulu ʻoihana a i ʻole ka hōʻoki ʻauhau ʻana no nā mea ʻaʻole piliona i hana i nā ʻoihana he nui aʻe ma mua o ka hoʻolilo pūʻali koa. Hoʻonui ka militarism i ka hana ʻino ma mua o ka pale ʻana iā mākou. Pono e hoʻohana ʻia nā mea kaua, luku ʻia, a hāʻawi ʻia i nā mākaʻi kūloko nāna e hoʻomaka e ʻike i ka poʻe kūloko he mau ʻenemi, i hiki ai ke hana i nā mea kaua hou. A ʻo kēia kaʻina hana, na kekahi ana, ka mea luku nui loa o ke kaiapuni i loaʻa iā mākou.
Ua puhi ka US i ke kaua e pili ana i nā baila o kaʻaila 340,000 i kēlā lā i kēia lā, e like me ia i anaʻia ma 2006. Inā he'āina ka Pentagon, e hoʻonuiʻia ka 38th mai ka 196 i kaʻaila. Ināʻoe i wehe i ka Pentagon mai ka huihuʻuʻaila a United States, a laila, e hoʻonohonoho muaʻiaʻoʻAmelika Hui Pūʻia me ka mea'ē aʻe i kahi kokoke. Akā, uaʻoluʻoluʻoe i ka lewa i ka hoʻonāʻana o kaʻaila hou ma mua o ka nui o nā'āina eʻai, a inā ua palekana ka honua i nā meaʻino a pau o ka pūʻali US e mālama ai. ʻAʻohe mea'ē aʻe maʻAmelika Hui Pūʻia e hoʻopau pono i kaʻaila e like me ka pūʻali koa.
I kēlā makahiki kēia makahiki, hoʻohana ka US Protection Environment i ka $ 622 miliona e ho'āʻo ana eʻike i keʻano o ka hanaʻana i ka mana me kaʻole o ka hinu,ʻoiai ka hoʻolimalimaʻana o ka pūʻali i ka haneli haneli haneli kālā e puhi ana i kaʻaila ma nā kaua a ma luna o nā kumuhana e mālama ai i ka lako o ka meaʻai. ʻO ka miliona miliona i mālamaʻia no ka mālamaʻana i kēlā koa kēia koa ma ka'āina'ē no hoʻokahi makahiki, hiki iā ia ke hana i nā hanana ikaika ma ka $ 20 i nā hanana ikaika ma ka $ 50,000.
ʻO nā kaua i nā makahiki i hala iho nei ua hoʻolilo i nā wahi nui i noho ʻole ʻia a hoʻonui ʻia he ʻumi miliona o nā mea mahuka. ʻO ke kaua "hoʻokūkū i ka maʻi maʻi e like me ke kumu honua o ka maʻi a me ka make ʻana," e like me ka Jennifer Leaning o ke Kula Lapaʻau ʻo Harvard. Māhele ʻo Leaning i ka hopena o ke kaiapuni o ke kaua i ʻehā mau wahi: Ua kapa ʻia kahi hōʻike a ka mokuʻāina ʻo US State 1993 i nā mines ʻāina “ʻo ka mea nui ʻino a laha hoʻi i mua o ke kanaka.” Aia ma lalo o interdict ka miliona o nā hectare ma ʻEulopa, ʻApelika ʻĀkau, a me ʻAsia. Hūnā kahi hapakolu o ka ʻāina ma Libia i nā maina maina a me nā kaua kaua ʻole i hōʻike ʻia o ke Kaua Honua II.
Ua'ānai a hōʻino paha nā hana o ka Soviet a me ka US o Afghanistan i nā tausani kauhale a me nā kumu wai. Ua kūʻai aku ka Taliban i ke kumulāʻau i ka'āinaʻo Pakistan i kaʻaeʻole, a me ka hopena nui o nā mea kanu. ʻO ka poʻe pōmoku a me nā poʻe mahuka e makemake ana i ka wahie, ua hoʻonui aku i ka pōʻino. Ua aneane pau ka nahele o Afghanistan. ʻO ka hapa nui o nā manu lele e hele ana i waena o Afghanistanʻaʻole pēlā. Ua hoʻopukaʻia konaʻili a me ka wai i nā mea pāhū a me nā mea āpau.
ʻAʻole ʻoe nānā iki i ka politika, ʻōlelo ka ʻōlelo, akā mālama ka politika iā ʻoe. Hele kēlā no ke kaua. Ua pale ʻo John Wayne i ka hele ʻana i ke Kaua Honua II ma ka hana ʻana i nā kiʻi ʻoniʻoni e hoʻonani i ka hele ʻana o kekahi poʻe. A maopopo iā ʻoe ka mea i loaʻa iā ia? Ua hana ʻo ia i kahi kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ma Utah ma kahi o kahi o ka hoʻāʻo nukili. Ma ka 220 poʻe i hana ma ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni, 91, ma mua o ka 30 i ʻano maʻamau, hoʻomohala ʻia i ka maʻi ʻaʻai e like me John Wayne, Susan Hayward, Agnes Moorehead, a me ka luna ʻo Dick Powell.
Pono mākou i kahi ʻaoʻao ʻokoʻa. Ma Connecticut, Peace Action a me nā hui ʻē aʻe i pili i ka hoʻohuli kūleʻa ʻana i ke aupuni mokuʻāina e hoʻonohonoho i kahi komisina e hana i ka hoʻohuli ʻana mai nā mea kaua i nā ʻoihana maluhia. Kākoʻo nā uniona hana a me ka hoʻokele iā ia. ʻO nā hui kaiapuni a me ka maluhia kahi ʻāpana o ia. He hana nui loa ia. Ua hoʻonāukiuki ʻia paha e nā moʻolelo wahaheʻe e hōʻoki ʻia ana ka pūʻali koa. Akā inā hiki iā mākou ke hana i kahi ʻoiaʻiʻo a ʻaʻole paha, pono e hoʻololi i ke kaiapuni i kā mākou kumuwaiwai i ka ikehu ʻōmaʻomaʻo e ulu, a ʻaʻohe kumu ʻo North Carolina ka mokuʻāina ʻelua i ka ʻāina e hana i kēia. Loaʻa iā ʻoe nā Pōʻakahi pono ma aneʻi. No ke aha e loaʻa ʻole ai ka maikaʻi i kēlā me kēia lā o ka makahiki?
ʻOi aku ka nui o nā hoʻololi hou ma mua o ka hopena. Ua hiki koke mai ka Environmentalism. Ua loaʻa i ka US nā mokulele mokupuni nukle i hoʻi i ka wā e hoʻohana ʻia ana nā koholā ma ke ʻano he kumuwaiwai o nā mea maka, nā lubricants, a me nā wahie, e komo pū ana me nā moku nukelea. I kēia manawa ua ʻike ʻia nā koholā e like me nā mea kupaianaha kupaianaha e pale ʻia, a ua hoʻomaka nā submarines nuklei e nānā i kahi archaic, a ʻo ka polu kani make a ka Navy e kau nei ma nā kai o ka honua e like me kahi barbaric.
ʻImi nā hoʻopiʻi a iMatter e pale aku i ka hilinaʻi lehulehu no nā hanauna e hiki mai ana. ʻO ka hiki ke mālama e pili ana i nā hanauna e hiki mai ana, ma nā manaʻo i koi ʻia, ʻaneʻane like me ka hiki ke mālama e pili ana i ka poʻe haole ma kahi mamao i kahi ākea ma mua o ka manawa. Inā hiki iā mākou ke noʻonoʻo i ko mākou kaiāulu e like me ka poʻe i hānau ʻole, ʻo ia ka mea a mākou e lana nei ʻoi aku ka nui ma mua o ke koena o mākou, hiki paha iā mākou ke noʻonoʻo e like me ka 95% o ka poʻe e ola nei i kēia lā ʻaʻole i loko o ka ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, a ʻo ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe.
Akā inā ʻaʻole kahi neʻe o ke kaiapuni a me ka activism maluhia, pono mākou e hui pū me lākou a me kekahi poʻe ʻē aʻe i mea e loaʻa ai kahi ʻano o ka hui 2.0 e pono ai mākou e hoʻololi. ʻO kahi manawa kūpono e hana ai e hiki mai ana ma kahi o Kepakemapa 21st ʻo ia ka International Day of Peace a me ka manawa e hiki mai ana kahi rally a me nā ʻano hanana āpau no ke aniau ma New York City.
Ma WorldBeyondWar.org ʻike ʻoe i nā ʻano kumuwaiwai āpau no ka mālama ʻana i kāu hanana iho no ka maluhia a me ke kaiapuni. E ʻike pū ʻoe i kahi ʻōlelo ʻelua huaʻōlelo pōkole e pili ana i ka hoʻopau ʻana i nā kaua āpau, kahi ʻōlelo i kau inoa ʻia i nā mahina i hala aku nei e ka poʻe ma 81 mau lāhui a piʻi aʻe. Hiki iā ʻoe ke kau inoa ma ka pepa ma aneʻi i kēia ahiahi. Pono mākou i kāu kōkua, ʻōpio a ʻelemakule. Akā e hauʻoli nui paha mākou i ka manawa a me nā helu ma ka ʻaoʻao o ka poʻe ʻōpio a puni ka honua, kahi aʻu e ʻōlelo pū ai me Shelley:
E ala e like me nā Liona ma hope o ka hiamoe
Ma ka helu makehewa,
E lulu i kou mau kaula i ka honua e like me ka hau
I ka hiamoeʻana ua hāʻule iāʻoe -
Ua nui oukou - he kakaikahi lakou.
